MS Word is not a typesetting program. It is a wysiwyg graphics program - a very different beast.

You’re describing circular polarization. It’s not the only way.

Company with largest stock valuation

Most valuable company

Pretti’s death may have turned the tide. If he had fired his weapon or even unholstered it, that would not be true.

Fuck 'em

That’s just FUD.

Test it under Wine. If it’s working, you’re good to go. Wine can’t make software misbehave in subtle ways. It works or it doesn’t.

I wonder if the software you need for cars would run under Wine.

For years I kept one Windows laptop running only so I could use one proprietary app that I used occasionally when teaching. It was not ideal, but whatever. Then Windows started showing ads. on the desktop. that I was showing to my students! That I will not tolerate. So I poked around with Wine and found out I could run that app on my Mint laptop!

Goodbye forever TinyFlaccid. Go fuck yourself.

(note: I do have to use a windows machine for one thing still - to print at work using my company supplied office computer. sigh.)

I’ve struggled to find an epithet for MS that would really sum up my anger in a single epic childish insult. Problem is, they already surpassed anything I could come up with.

They are tiny and flaccid, and no one should pay them any mind.

I share your pessimism. My answer had nothing to do with what might actually happen.

This isn’t the first time the US has done

“directly capturing a sovereign leader”

It costs a lot of money to run wikipedia. The internet is not free (as in beer).

In fact, if you want me to create an account on your servers, you are first required to register your OS on my own website.

I love this sooo much!

When a post is a link to an article, I would prefer that the post title match the article. Many news communities actually require that.

More importantly, the evil people running the petroleum industry are in fact old, but that is not why they are evil.

Evil people in positions of power tend to be old because a) it takes time to accumulate power, and b) folks with power tend to keep it till they’re dead. It’s just statistics - it doesn’t mean oldness causes evil.

Downvoted for ageism.

Biodiesel is a renewable liquid fuel.

Wisconsin already blocks access to all goverment websites if you use a VPN. I can’t even check the garbage collection schedule for my town. I always thought it was this misguided concept that they thought only “hackers” would want to be anonymous. It seems they are really working for the data brokers, who don’t want anyone to be anonymous.

Mine, on thd other hanf, is prefect, though my speling is not.

Misspelling, especially when typing on a phone, is orders of magnitude less egregious than the gramner problem in the headline.
