In a free market society I'd be using Lotus 123 and WordPerfect on my Compaq tablet running a quad core DEC Alpha CPU. Really, the best one can hope for is to get bought out at the top like Canonical's Shuttleworth. The banksters will keep printing phony bucks and trickling them down to people with more authority than brains.
Oh, that makes me a "disgruntled ex-Winblows user" type of Linux user, for those of you who are context challenged.

That's what the word "Progressive" means, Oshunluver, setting up a 1930s style economy so everyone has equal outcomes, not opportunities."A nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its people.”

Yeah. And if you want to know how to fold a fitted sheet, try this:
How to Fold a Fitted Sheet in 30 seconds (OCD Experience Way)

It may not do it as perfectly as the more complicated "perfect, corner" methods, but it is quick, and if you pay attention to a few details, you get a good outcome, close enough.An intellectual says a simple thing in a hard way. An artist says a hard thing in a simple way. Charles Bukowski

Btw, in case you're wondering, I thought I'd jump in to this thread, like others, with some random content (though I did use the sheet-folding this afternoon). WTH.
On topic, anyone else here care to share your selfie/pic showing the "Kubuntu" type, please jump in, totally fun, totally optional.An intellectual says a simple thing in a hard way. An artist says a hard thing in a simple way. Charles Bukowski

So she went into the garden to cut a cabbage-leaf to make an apple pie, and at the same time a great she-bear came running up the street and popped its head into the shop. "What! No soap?" So he died, and she -- very imprudently -- married the barber. And there were present the Picninnies, the Joblillies, the Garyulies, and the Grand Panjandrum himself, with the little red button at top, and they all fell to playing the game of catch-as-catch-can till the gunpowder ran out at the heels of their boots.

I thought so--exactly how I see it, too. Could extend this to nonsensical but grammatically correct Haiku. Is there no quantum theory of grammar, though the probabilistic may have failed in 1957, why not try it?An intellectual says a simple thing in a hard way. An artist says a hard thing in a simple way.

I'm familiar with literature on the multiverse concept. One can not say anything about whether it is valid or not. Not yet, anyway. Not according to leading cosmologists.An intellectual says a simple thing in a hard way. An artist says a hard thing in a simple way. Charles Bukowski
