    @ma_se_mo_la do you need just the text or do you need to keep the formatting? If you only care for the text, pdftotext and then open that in LibreOffice Writer for clean up and formatting. If you want to keep the formatting and only need to do small changes to the text, the drawing program does a pretty decent job with opening PDF directly

    Last week I had a chat with a colleague who is highly specialized in Microsoft solutions.

    @stefano @christopher I am not sure if I'd say #Linux is becoming like #Windows. I do recall similar statements made on the Debian-User mailing list on a previous release when xorg introduced autoconfiguration. A lot of people were pissed that it was making choices for you instead of manually configuring the xorg.conf file.Honestly, that was a good thing. Painful doesn't begin to describe it but users were unaware they could still hand-configure the file.There has been, however, more stuff added to Linux over the last several years. Call it bloat, call it whatever you want. OSes change. But it has been gradually moving away from simplicity.I miss the simplicity.However, to reply to your original post, coming from COTS solutions, sometimes the vast amount of choice can be overwhelming. For instance, when it comes to #FreeBSD #jails it used to just be jails. Now, it's thin, thick, classic, networking. I understand they have their places but it would be helpful to provide more detailed explanations, tutorials, or best practices for each. The FreeBSD Handbook is good but just scratches the surface but often leaves more questions. It would help with learning and in part...marketing.On a side note: The FreeBSD Handbook is a great resource but there are opportunities to improve it, like tailoring it to new users (better empathy), best practices, architectural examples, and links to additional resources and info.

    As some of you know, I have moved over to Linux. I have tried different distributions, but using Ubuntu at this time. I have found one issue. When I click links in other apps and they open in Vivaldi, there is a notification that the page is ready, instead of just taking me to the page. Seems to be a generic issue and I have looked and found that there are extensions to get rid of this, but IMHO this should rather be a setting and I would have thought that most users would like for things just to be opened. Any reason why it is done this way? It adds a lot of extra steps that should not be needed.#Linux #Gnome
