Couldn’t find a good article so here are the change notes: https://privacy.microsoft.com/en-us/updates
The change includes the usage of AI for Microsoft Services. This means it will scan everything that interacts with Microsoft services for the following things: Hate peach, creation of spam/fishing, Malware and illegal content(that’s what I remembered).
Termination of laws or guidelines can lead to the suspension of your Microsoft account.
Btw, does anyone of you know a good alternative for PowerPoint?

We really need a separate community for Microsoft news.
Adding “btw, does anyone of you know a good alternative for PowerPoint?” does not make this a Linux topic…

Why are you posting Microsoft privacy policies to a Linux community?

Libre Office ppt is good enough imo; Apple Keynote is superior to both imo.

It sadly still misses inline formulas, which may be a deal breaker for people working in science/engineering.

LibreOffice is a free and free alternative to MS Office

OnlyOffice

For PowerPoint, I guess you would be able to find something which suits your needs, with libreoffice, onlyoffice… And others.
However for my work, there is currently, no alternatives I know to Excel, because of Power Querry. There is also power Bi beeing extremely powerful without alternatives.
For personal use, I don’t need much of them so, whatever.

Python for excel, grafana for Bi?
I guess depends of your use case.
- Tibert ( @Tibert@jlai.lu ) 1•1 year ago
Yeah… It’s not really the same.
Python is a programming language, much harder to use than power Querry as power Querry does the programming. There are actions you can do in power Querry, and it will automatically created and adapted to the previous and next step in the M language, tho the next steps aren’t automatically changed if there is a breaking change.
Grafana not sure. I am working in accounting. Maybe I can talk to the person who set up power Bi, but not sure if it would be adapted. Currently the tool isn’t deployed to clients, but mostly ready for testing.
