Much business oriented software just hasn't had the work done on it to work on Wine. Really the only reason I have to run Windows now is the 3D CAD software I use and my best option at this point is running it in a Windows VM on my server. And no Freecad and Fusion360 aren't suitable options, they both suck.

Spotify Connect is a feature I use extensively that nobody else even comes close to doing as well (even though the Spotify implementation leaves much to be desired). Why does nobody else support controlling the player on my PC from another computer?

I 'm forced to use Chrome on my work laptop and it is the worst browser (even before the disabling of Manifest V2), but for security I can't access many systems with even another chromium based browser . Funnily IT forces an extension on us and it isn't compatible with Manifest V3.

Time and motion studies can be incredibly effective. My company once wanted to automate some processes and sent me down there to watch the workers and identify the processes we could automate. Talking with the workers and filming a few of them gave me all the information to save well over $1M per year just by making the current process more efficient. Literally cost some people's time to do the analysis, change some documentation and validate the improvements. Even the workers were happy because they had less waiting around for things to happen and were part of the process.

Agreed, you look at how places in Asia treat the importance of education compared to how North America does and it isn't a surprise how we are falling behind all over the place. Not to say there aren't plenty of issues with how their education systems work, but with the status quo we are essentially throwing away any advantage we have over the East.

Obsidian files are just Markdown, so there is plenty of software out there today that can parse them. The only thing you might miss is plugins that don't exist outisd of obsidian.

Nah their laptops are shit too. We are forced to use them for work and they have sharp uncomfortable edges everywhere, randomly have the fans on maximum (even when in sleep) and sound like a jet plane taking off.

Yup, this degradation is all well understood. The only value I see is studying how a large portion of people use their devices to identify what the expected life actually is with the abuse they put their devices through.

No problems synchronizing with LAN only mode in Orca Slicer for me.

Dunno, I just log into the website. Don't need another app clogging up my phone.

Yup, you just need somewhere in your local network to install it. I've been using it on my P1S since I changed it to LAN only mode a couple weeks ago.
