Some guy named Bill when it was time to propose a charter of rights for the citizens of their country:
"Fellas, I have this crazy idea you would not believe!..."

To be happy at other people's misfortune is not ok.
That being said, hah! Dumbasses!

First of all, as a time honored tradition it is customary to say this: Never, ever trust an autosave. Manual saves and backup, always.

With that out of the way, yeah, libre office is kinda bad at the regular user stuff. If you aren't a fiddler who goes through options first and sets their own personal preferences, a bad time will be had.

Also, apparently crashes might reset the auto save tick depending on the version used, so check twice if it happens again just to make sure.

Ps: Never had an issue with it personally, but it's hit or miss with its users.

Some comments complaining about the house elves status don't see how well it spills into real life.

Society didn't care in the books, society doesn't care in real life. Change was slow in the books, change is slow in real life.
Rowling was accurate as fuck in this regard.

They know the horror of Canadian geese first hand. No way in hell will you get them to willingly partake in a ritual that has even the slightest chance of summoning one.

Obviously, the calculator app needs camera permission for scanning complex formulas that would otherwise require lengthy manual input and calculating them automatically.

You're joking right? Read about Ellen Page and the Beyond:Two Souls controversy.

Shit's already here. It's not just a little silly anymore. And with those AI deep fakes floating around, anyone can become a pornstar without even knowing about it.

People already killing themselves for fake rape allegations and social media pariah-ism, what now that fake porn with you in it can be made at any time?

This shit's a disaster in the making, not just a little silly.

Unregulated capitalism some would say, I say cheap production costs with little to no consequence whatsoever for them doing this kind of thing.

War is funny.
WWI started because everyone had to respect their treaties and join their allies into war.
Then WWII started because countries didn't join together from the start.

So, even if we learn from our past mistakes and avoid making them, with war, we can only do worse the next time.
