Oh sweet lord of heaven. No, no, no, this is too much! I'm proof-reading a document and running it through #MicrosoftWord's grammar and spell checker and it's yelling at me saying: "inclusiveness this may imply bias against people with disabilities." It wants to change the word "mute" to "nonspeaking participants." We aren't referring to people who are mute we're talking about Zoom. #Oy
I have a Word document that I cannot manipulate with my MacBook Pro with an M1 Pro chip with 16GB… and my M2 Pro Mac mini with the same memory has no issue with it at all 🤔
It is just an 88 page document… but with a table with 4484 rows and 5 columns… which is a sparse table. It should not be that difficult…
Made the mistake of right clicking a misspelled word in #microsoftWord to fix it and now I'm stuck on the "I'm thinking" scream, hoping it doesn't crash and lose the last five minutes of writing 🙃
Wish I knew if it was the program or the brand new #hewlettPackard hp envy x360 #laptop giving me so many problems!
I had a recipe that I wanted to share with the family, but the original was a scanned PDF of a rather smudgy page that I didn't want to share. I was able to convert it text and edit it in Word, then save it as a much cleaner and smaller PDF.
Details are too long to post here so I put them on my blog.
I discovered so many classic Microsoft Word formatting and style features which I didn't know about by watching this @shanselman video where he fixes a Word doc live on camera. Must watch! ⭐️
Now it suddenly worked. I have no idea what I did differently (apart that I was trying to show it to a colleague). Not sure if this is better or worse 😠
I'm working on a fanfic. Initially I wanted to get permission to make it, because I saw nothing in the fan content IP guidelines about fanfics, and I wanted to make sure it was OK. I talked to a friend about it, and he said that they're so common that I probably didn't have to ask and that I worry about these sorts of things way too much. Plus, I'm sure that fanfics are so obviously fan content that it wasn't stated in the IP guidelines, so I think it's OK. So, with that being said...
Any #DDLC fans on here wanna work on a #FanFiction with me? I need someone who's familiar with the characters and what they look like. I also need them to be familiar with #MicrosoftWord or something similar with footnote and track change support and a means of sharing the document between each other. I don't need a masters degree English writer, but I do need someone with some writing experience. This is a non-cannon #FanFic based on the Doki Doki Salvation mod. #DDLCMod#FanFics#FanFicWriting
40 Jahre Microsoft Word: Kein Senkrechtstarter, dann Marktführer
Heute unangefochtener Marktführer konkurrierte das erste Microsoft Word vor genau vier Jahrzehnten nur mäßig erfolgreich mit etablierten Textprogrammen.
UX designers who eliminated the filesystem from user consciousness in name of simplicity ruined the world and are morally culpable for shriveling minds of children who are unable to tackle the challenges of today thanks to a choice sold as advocacy for the user but was ultimately motivated by control of a disempowered customer.
@ikanreed@SwiftOnSecurity I was completely speechless because even as a millenial born in 1992 this was more or less unthinkable to me to be possible.
I don't expect much in terms of #TechLinteracy but someone who was deemed eligible for university in 2019 should be able to turn a PC on, enter a password and open #MicrosoftWord or even #NotePad of all things...
Shit that even the #ECDL fake-#certification expects people to be able to do...
Apparently this person never got to touch a PC b4.
How to screw a perfectly simple email, putting the test in a PDF file made with Microsoft Word where double 't' is converted to tt ligature https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ligature_(writing) and then PDF can't handle it, leaving me with incomplete text to send to LibreTranslate that can't be translated... just for a simple text of a few lines without any special formatting beside the ligatures. #Ligatures#PDF#MicrosoftWord#Email
Aptos ersetzt Calibri: Das ist Microsofts neue Standardschriftart
15 Jahre lang setzte Microsoft Calibri als Standardschriftart ein. Aptos tritt die Nachfolge in Word, Outlook und Co. an – und ist bereits Publikumsliebling.
