ToC via Styles formatting and Table of authorities - these are from the top of my head, which I remember not working properly with Open Office. They need to work when I do them and also should be displayed correctly when I receive them from colleagues in docx format.
Format painter, track changes, spell checker in two languages, intendation adjustments, page breaks, and paste as text - I use these like crazy but I don’t remember if they were OK in Open Office or not.
Can I use MS Office natively with that? Also, can I use it as a non-techie lay man in a way that is similar to the way most office bottom-feeders use Windows?
I know there is Open Office but I am lawyer and the free office alternatives just don’t have the rich formatting options I need to do my job. I have tried and they just won’t do.
Try to put them in the mood?
That’s a problem. I used to get news almost immediately from Reddit. Now I am a bit stuck on that front and so far there is no reasonable alternative.
For example, I like to follow chess news. I stumbled upon a piece of news on the wider internet that Hans Nieman and Magnus Carlsen had resolved their dispute. It wasn’t very much reported on, so I checked old.reddit/r/chess to see what’s going on. The first detailed thread on the matter had been opened and active, like, 5 minutes after the announcement.
At this point, nothing on the internet can compete with this.
It is kind of the same with world news and Ukraine war coverage.
So, yeah. After getting off of Reddit, I have lost the ability to be quickly informed about news. Mastodon is not much help and I don’t want to fuel Elon Twitter’s BS, so I am stuck.
Nothing. She has no time to read Excel spreadsheets.

I love how they combine it all with light banter. Without the banter, most of the episode would be unlistenable, as you would be too depressed and tie yourself on a train track.
For history:
Revolutions by Mike Duncan. You can start with the Haitian and the Mexican revolutions. Then just listen to whichever season you want.
Dan Carlin’s Hardcore History.
The History of Rome by Mike Duncan.
These are absolutely amazing.
Honorable mentions for Behind the Bastards and Lions Lead by Donkeys, if you like some banter along with the story telling.
Edit: someone in here reminded me about Your Undivided Attention. It is, literally and without irony, the most important podcast you could ever listen.
This cannot be said enough times: Russia is a terrorist state. Nothing excuses Russia’s war of agression. Failure to help Ukraine amounts to complicity in genocide.
Thank you for the explanation!
I have heard that you should divide by two and add 7.
I am 40, so that would mean I should be attracted to 27 year olds and up. Generally, it checks out. Caveats may apply, as people are, you know, different.
