Just picked up this Asus Q301LA yesterday. It's nice to have a new computer coming from the early 2006 Mac mini I had before! Here's my current setup. Saving for a nice 27" monitor as we speak. :)

Hehe I still have my old G4 Mac Mini running Ubuntu. But I hardly use it, nice desk.

Either that or some kind of insurance office.. 

 

But I could be wrong... it could be something else such as accounting office.

 

could be anything that includes those kinds of books/binders/folders which mentioned in the photo.

Miniaturized recently.

 

Fractal Design Node 304

i5 3570K @ 4.2ghz with Coolermaster TX3

XFX Radeon 7870 Double-D

MSI Z77IA-E53 motherboard

8GB DDR3

Vertex 4 128GB + Kingston V+100 96GB SSDs

WD Caviar Black 1TB + WD Caviar Green 2TB

Seasonic X650 full modular

 

Took some effort to make it work (it's a tight fit with the PSU, had to remove the bracket to move it closer to the back of the case for it to fit with the long graphics card). The cooler barely fit, good thing my SATA/power connectors on the drives are angled. Temps are pretty good considering how quiet the rig is. No regrets, it's awesome to have such a small PC.

    • Euro-Office must default to ODF to be considered "genuinely European", LibreOffice argues by David Uzondu Euro-Office is a web-based collaborative office suite that positions itself as a "European sovereign alternative" to American tech companies, backed by a coalition of developers including Nextcloud, IONOS, Abilian, BTactic, OpenProject, and, more recently, Tuta. The project officially went live a couple of days ago, but not before drawing heavy fire from LibreOffice developers, who called the marketing claim that Euro-Office represents the "first open-source office suite developed in Europe" a deceptive historical inaccuracy because projects like OpenOffice and LibreOffice existed decades earlier. Now that the project has launched, LibreOffice is back with another complaint, arguing that Euro-Office cannot consider itself "genuinely European" while it pushes proprietary Microsoft defaults on users. Euro-Office had promised to improve the OpenDocument Format (ODF) back in April, but the current release still plagues users with several technical failures. For instance, the suite lacks an admin setting to enforce ODF, and mobile editors completely block ODF saves, forcing files into Microsoft's OOXML formats. Some configurations force files into read-only mode, while editing frequently corrupts document formatting or erases data. LibreOffice thinks that merely supporting a format as an afterthought does not make you a sovereign alternative, as file formats are the battleground where" digital sovereignty is won or lost." The road to the first stable release of Euro-Office has been quite bumpy due to an aggressive public fallout with OnlyOffice, from which the coalition originally forked the project. OnlyOffice struck back by accusing the coalition of violating copyright terms under its AGPLv3 branding requirements by stripping the original branding anyway and forking the code. Getting Euro-Office up and running is a bit wonky (at least for non-technical users), as there is no direct installer to grab off the web. The easiest way we learnt is by using Docker. First, pull the official Euro-Office image from the GitHub Container Registry: docker pull ghcr.io/euro-office/documentserver:latest Then, run the container with active ports and a secure JWT token, enabling the test environment: docker run -i -t -d -p 8080:80 --restart=always -e EXAMPLE_ENABLED=true -e JWT_SECRET=my_secure_jwt_secret ghcr.io/euro-office/documentserver:latest And finally, open a web browser and go to the following address: http://localhost:8080 If you are running this on a remote server, replace localhost with your server's IP address. You will see the Euro-Office test page, where you can create new text documents, spreadsheets, or presentations directly in the browser. Image via Euro-Office Nextcloud promises that proper standalone desktop versions and mobile apps will arrive in a future release.
