Worse, office is a subscription only nowā¦ bastards
Itās one thing for me to pay a recurring service fee, for something that costs then moneyā¦ servers for example or bandwidth or media rights like music services
Itās another to expect me to continue to pay for the same lump of programming over and over, because I donāt want you to take it away from me
Shit pisses me off, but thatās how everything is going because it makes the corps more money is a more stable business model
Iām quite happy with using LibreOfficeā¦ itās pretty much the same (at least on the level I use itā¦^^), and itās free, itās open source, itās more privacy-friendly and all that. I donāt know why people still pay for the MS office, especially since itās subscription-basedā¦
Itās not highly rated, yet I find it really quite good as neo-noir movies go. Not Blade Runner kind of good, but definitely well above average. Then again, itās an Andrew Niccol film, so no surprise there.
It is of interest to us because all the characters (everybody, in fact) is fitted with some nondescript implant that records what people see, plays back videos and lets the wearers interact and immerse fully into the fictional societyās version of the internet. Interesting concept.

not likely to be honestā¦ itās so hard to do factory NRE with people that donāt speak your language. plus there are vendors who will not supply raw materials and not disclose their suppliersā¦ there are politics involved in ways that make absolutely no sense. In the case of a dual frequency xLED, it has much more to do with the disinclination of the people running the sealing hardware to deal with variation. Under no circumstances do they want there to be any possibility of charred plastic or overheated resin happening inside the machineā¦ and when it comes to positioning LEDs inside the glass, this is a challenge (as you know)ā¦ so after many many plans, engineering drawings, ideas, and absolute failureā¦ rather than beat my head against that wall I choose other battles.

Car share schemes are pretty popular here, if they are a thing there and you donāt drive often, it may be a reasonable option. Renting a car by the hour isnāt always the best option, but depending on your location and use-cases, it can be a whole lot more convenient than owning one for the occasion you use it.
Iām aware of carsharing, and I used to use it in more densely populated countries. However, in Finlandā¦
GreenMobility now wants to establish itself only in Helsinki and possibly already in Espoo and Vantaa by 2021.
ā¦itās always the same story: that sort of service exists only in Uusimaa - the more populous capital area. Out here in the sticks, itās not a profitable proposition, so it doesnāt exist. Even bus services, while very good, arenāt cheap by any strech of the imagination.
