Random DIY mixing and More

Good morning. Another cold day. Winter is just beginning and I wish it was over already.

Good morning, hitt I hear ya there. It's been winter here for awhile now and I'm sick of it.

The lights did make it on the tree yesterday but no other decor yet.

 

[FranC]

Good morning random folks. Have you any plans today?

 

[FranC]

Just checked the temp here and it's only 15. Big YUCK.

I gave up on Office. They blocked the old version I got years ago. Sneaky tactics. To activate it on a new PC you have to use a product code which is 5 blocks of numbers, but the old versions only have 4 blocks. Took me quite a while to find the product code and I was pretty mad. They do have a free on-line version but it's a major pain to use, and some cheaper versions, but I was tired of being MS'ed around.

Someone here suggested WPS which is a free alternative. There are a handful of minor differences in which button you hit to do certain things, like copy and paste are in a different place on the window. They hit you with ads for their paid version, but the average home user will never use the advanced features.

That was I. Another possibility is LibreOffice.

LibreOffice for the win. Open source, no ads. EVER. Read (and write, if needed) the most common MS Office formats.

I have to get a new computer next year because my current machine can't accommodate Windows 11, and I plan to switch to LibreOffice at that time. Can't be bothered for now.

I bet you don’t miss carrying fire wood.

Inventory at work was a nightmare. Some bin locations were wrong and some items had multiple locations. I ended up getting out of work about an hour late.
