Draw.io my feeling is you you need anything more fancy, you have missed the point of flowcharts and things like it. I have used the basic tools in libre office and word, it just depends on what you need to do.

on US to seek back payment from Europe for Ukraine aid, Trump says in c/europe@feddit.org · 5 Sep 2026
It’s clear he doesn’t understand that aid is voluntary, I bet he’s never given anything away for free ever. Also the Budapest Memorandum?

15x8TB drives gives you about 72TB in raidz2, for about £4k in disks, add a server for say £2k
So by not spending £6k they lost everything, they spent $19million on IT in 2025
Someone fucked up

on Linus Torvalds says AI has made 'huge' Linux kernel updates the new normal in c/technology@lemmy.world · 13 Aug 2026
I asked it to generate a SQL query with a bit of python, as the database schema is huge and unknown to me, obviously I checked it for glaring errors etc. I went back and clarified a couple of basic points. It then told me what I was doing was completely wrong, generated new code that worked is a different way, with a different edge case missed.
It’s literally stack overflow but arguing with itself

on In a universe of enshitification, Linux is one of the few things that consistently gets better. in c/linuxmemes@lemmy.world · 12 Aug 2026
The main enshitification I’ve seen has been when a project tries to financially support itself via a supported version or enterprise version. More often than not new features get developed for the paid version and the open source version becomes the community version. New features then never got put in to the community version, or it remains in a crippled state

on Amid RAM price hikes, Microsoft reportedly raises Windows license cost, forcing OEMs to hike prices even further on hardware in c/technology@lemmy.world · 10 Aug 2026

I also need to know more, that’s an amazing feature
