🚀 AI-Powered Open-Source Alternatives Are Taking on Microsoft Office The developer behind ArtCraft, a project creating free alternatives to Adobe software, is expanding into Microsoft’s productivity suite with three new open-source applications built with AI assistance. • GridCraft: An alternative to Microsoft Excel • DeckCraft: An alternative to PowerPoint • WordCraft: An alternative to Microsoft Word The developer, Brandon Thomas, used Anthropic’s Claude to help build these applications and has made them available through GitHub. The project reflects a growing trend: AI coding tools are enabling developers to build software that once required significantly larger teams and budgets.

Why this matters: • Open-source alternatives could reduce software licensing costs. • Cross-platform compatibility could give users more flexibility, including on Linux. • AI-assisted development is lowering barriers to building complex applications. • Subscription-based software vendors may face increasing competition from community-driven alternatives. ⚠️ These applications are still works in progress and are not yet full replacements for their commercial counterparts. Security, reliability, feature completeness, and compatibility will be critical to their long-term success. As AI-assisted development continues to evolve, how will traditional software vendors differentiate themselves beyond features that independent developers can increasingly replicate? #ArtificialIntelligence #OpenSource #SoftwareDevelopment #ClaudeAI #MicrosoftOffice #TechInnovation #AI tomshardware.com/software/micr…

The latest COSMIC update (version 1.10.0) changed how font settings are synchronized with GTK applications. The font size dropped from 11 to 10.5 points. This affected my Emacs, because I use a .deb package with the PGTK. Everything shrank noticeably. Here's a quick fix using terminal commands: gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface font-name 'Open Sans 11' gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface monospace-font-name 'Noto Sans Mono 11' #Emacs #pop_os #linux #Cosmic

MALCOLM McDOWELL on why Kubrick’s “A Clockwork Orange” was so prophetic, how the “Singing In The Rain” sequence came to be, and why — as he puts it — the right to choose is a key message in the film.
#Russia spent September intensifying attacks on #Ukraine, with jet drones relentlessly launched to bring civilian life to a halt and plans for an inexpensive new missile that can be used to terror bomb Ukrainian cities. It also pushed its sabotage campaign deeper into #NATO territory. Ukraine, meanwhile, was quietly retaking villages in the east.
