Readit NewsBut GNUCash existed when I first got a job decades ago.
GNUCash exists today.
I don't think any other package really matches the endurance.
It is absolutely frustrating because it has that mid 90s utility design.
I don't think I have seen any other utility hasnt really progressed on interface design like GNUcash. Like they built a prototype went "Nailed it!" And then moved onto back end stuff while ignoring all input from users.
When someone says "I was raised by the internet", I immediately think: social media addiction, 4chan and other online obscenities. But this is completely based on my own personal experience.
My point here is not related to this lovely post at all, it's just that I always have associated "raised by the internet" with negative connotation.
I do worry about those nowadays that are "raised by the internet". I see the stream of influence that social media is having and I have to remember than for many people, this is all they have ever known of the internet. There is no other context. Many viewing this stuff are smart folks, but when that stream of media becomes like the air, many can be tugged in all manner of directions and now even realize it.
In the same manner of drugs, try not to turn them into a diet. The internet is a wonderful tool but a questionable 'way of life'.
My shoot from the hip intuitive thought is that the massive amount of plant matter it took to make petroleum demonstrates how inefficient it is to get energy in that chemical state. A fools errand to try and do it over.
It has been said that Coal/Gas/Oil is a half billion years of stored solar energy. That is wildly inaccurate for many reasons, but even if we are using a few thousand years of stored energy, that is still a wide gap to cover.
Isn't this what the arctic tundra is, without the pipes?
I loved this game, and remember having to swap several discs to play it before I eventually bought a HDD (a whopping 545Mb beast).
It was only recently that I saw the DOS intro on YouTube and realised the Amiga had been short-changed.
This also goes a lot for the leap from command prompts to GUI's. You trade off control for functionality and that is not necessarily a bad thing. I just wish it was easier to get back to a middle path on this. Many have tried but it all seems a little too fragmented.
It is probably inevitable, I mean if even Microsoft couldnt fight off Googles browser dominance, what hope does Mozilla have long term.
Still using it though.
The alternative is to either have the user pay for it or have little to no funding which is a dead end in its own fashion.
