Why don’t they start by cutting the head off of the monster that got them in this position. That should be the first step. Stupid sharks loose their teeth, not their fins that actually do the work. Like, everyone in corporate should be sued and owe back every bit of their pay from the last few years. This is a steering problem. So replace the wheel and fuck up the old one.
Pareto principal for psyops, by a think tank organization too. Why is this nonsense tractable here?

Yes .docx.
It appears as though the encoding is missing in such a way that nothing in Linux recognizes the file. The underlying CLI tools don’t have a way of converting the file. I tried with Python’s docx tool and with iconv. It has to be encoding related because some tools initially load the file with several sets of Asian characters instead of English. However, there is no hexadecimal or sections of entirely binary looking data. Archiving tools do not open up the the file to reveal anything else like a metafile or header. Neo vim shows garbled nonsense throughout. Bat warns of binary. Python won’t load the file, nor will Only Office. Libre Office and Abi Word load initially with Asian characters before crashing.
The only option is likely gong to be setting up the W10 machine and converting a bunch of files within it.
Ultimately, my old man thinks he can be an author all of the sudden and is trying to write. He’s not very capable of learning. I’m not confident that he can learn to use FOSS to do the same thing he has been doing. This post was just to see if there are options I am not already aware of that might actually work in practice. I can easily do everything I need in FOSS. I can do everything he needs to do. I’m more concerned about becoming his tech support when he forgets how to copy pasta. He already fails to separate the internet hardware connectivity from the web browser and operating system within his mental model of technology.
All of the office suites seem to use either Python 3 docx or iconvert under the surface. These tools do not support whatever default encoding m$ is using. It is clearly a font encoding issue, but I won’t know what that font is until my back is in good enough shape to setup a desktop at my bedside workstation.

Too many documents and Office 365 is a $10 month sub scam.

…was setup for something like that here but note that the repo that runs this has an “unsafe” warning that I have not looked into: https://huggingface.co/spaces/nasrin2023ripa/multilabel-book-genre-classifier

It might be fine or whatnot, I’m on mobile and can’t see the file in question. The associated Python code might be a helpful starting point.
In my experience, most models intentionally obfuscate copyright sources. They all know the materials to various degrees, but they are not intended to replicate sources. They all have strong interference in place to obscure both their recognition and reproduction potential. If, for instance, you can identify where errors are inserted and make a few corrections, they often continue adding a few details that are from the original source. If this is done a few times in a row, they tend to gain more freedom before reverting to obfuscation again. This is the behavior I look out for. It is a strong tool too if you get creative in application.
Perhaps someone posts an API to look up the library of congress classification of a work based on a few lines or something. GL
There are likely automatic checks in the startup script. I don’t use A1111 any more in favor of Comfy and I only have a 3080Ti with 16 GB (mobile version). I can run within issues. The only time I have issues with anything AI related is when I need Nvidia’s proprietary compiler nvcc. I need nvcc to hack around with things like llama.cpp. With nvcc, it can have issues with the open source driver
A whitelist filtered firewall never gets CAPTCHAs. The only ones I ever see are if they are self hosted on the server of an approved address, and that is like one every few years. The majority of those that you see are not related to the websites you visit. In most instances it is related to 3rd party junk, probably ads’ PII.
So software like CAD is funny. Under the surface, 3d CAD like FreeCAD or Blender is taking vertices and placing them in a Cartesian space (X/Y/Z - planes). Then it is building objects in that space by calculating the mathematical relationships in serial. So each feature you add involves adding math problems to a tree. Each feature on the tree is linearly built and relies on the previously calculated math.
Editing any changes up tree is a massive issue called the topological naming problem. All CAD has this issue and all fixes are hacks and patches that are incomplete solutions, (it has to do with π and rounding floating point at every stage of the math).
Now, this is only the beginning. Assemblies are made of parts that each have their own Cartesian coordinate planes. Often, individual parts have features that are referencing other parts in a live relationship where a change in part A also changes part B.
Now imagine modeling a whole car, a game world, a movie set, or a skyscraper. The assemblies get quite large depending on what you’re working on. Just an entire 3d printer modeled in FreeCAD was more than my last computer could handle.
Most advanced CAD needs to get to the level of hardware integration where generalizations made for something like Wayland simply are not sufficient. Like your default CPU scheduler, (CFS on Linux) is setup to maximize throughput at all costs. For CAD, this is not optimal. The process niceness may be enough in most cases, but there may be times when true CPU set isolation is needed to prevent anything interrupting the math as it renders. How this is split and managed with a GPU may be important too.
I barely know enough to say this much. When I was pushing my last computer too far with FreeCAD, optimising the CPU scheduler stopped a crashing problem and extended my use slightly, but was not worth much. I really needed a better computer. However looking into the issue deeply was interesting. It revealed how CAD is a solid outlier workflow that is extremely demanding and very different from the rest of the computer where user experience is the focus.
I never trust stat counters of any kind with linux. I often see stuff like that plastered on my whitelist firewall, like bumper insects on a high speed summer drive through Florida. There is usually some other stat of leet users. That’s Linux too. Then there are those times when I change my browser agent just for fun.
Secure boot must have all kernel modules signed. The system that Fedora uses is a way that builds the drivers from source with every new kernel update. It works, but it can’t be modified further.
The primary issue you will likely come across is that the nvcc compiler is not open source and it is part of the CUDA chain. You can’t build things like lama.cpp without nvcc and have CUDA support. Most example type projects have the same issues. Without nvcc fully open, you are still somewhat limited. Also the toolchain for nvcc screws up the open source built stuff and will put you back at the train wreck of secure boot. If Nvidia had half a working brain, they would open source everything instead of the petty conservative nonsense stupidity that drives proprietary fools. There is absolutely no room in AI for anyone that lacks full transparency.
No. You can use either a Fedora distro or regular default vanilla Ubuntu. Both of these package managers have a special shim keys that are signed by a 3rd party program from Microsoft.
If you want to run anything else, you need to self sign your key for secure boot. Gentoo has killer documentation on how to do this. It doesn’t matter what distro you use. Secure Boot is outside of the Linux kernel. With Fedora, it is handled by their Anaconda system, (no relationship to the Python containers system by the same name).
Sharks regrow their teeth, not their fins.
