My Dearest Sinophobes:

Your knee-jerk downvoting of anything that features any hint of Chinese content doesn’t hurt my feelings. It just makes me point an laugh, Nelson Muntz style as you demonstrate time and again just how weak American snowflake culture really is.

Hugs & Kisses, 张殿李

  • Where the F/OSS stuff is “good enough” I use it. Where it isn’t good enough, I don’t.

    This is pretty much how I deal with everything. Ideology in tools is a weird thing to me. Computers are a tool I use to perform the tasks I want to perform. I use what works.

    Thus it is that I use Windows 10 (non-F/OSS), LibreOffice at home (F/OSS), a mix of LibreOffice and WPS Office (non-F/OSS) at work, Zen (F/OSS) as my browser except for those extremely rare circumstances where a web site doesn’t work in Zen, Taobao (non-F/OSS) and AliPay (non-F/OSS) for shopping, etc. etc. etc. These are all “good enough” for my needs while keeping my costs down.

    Now the recent US trade idiocy is changing some of that calculus and from this point onward I won’t buy commercial software from an American company any longer; I’d rather do without than buy American, so perhaps some ideology gets involved, but that’s a very recent “innovation” for me.
