And a burger campaign advertising 1/3 burgers failed because too many people thought they were smaller than 1/4 pounders! But there are 10 kinds of people. Those who understand binary and those who don’t.

I’ve been using LibreOffice for years now (after OpenOffice developed issues). It is a great product, totally free to install and use. The only very minor issue I’ve run into is when I need to share a file with a Word user. But I’ve saved spreadsheets in Excel formats successfully.

My dad used to say that poison oak is natural, but very unhealthy. This was in regards to soft drinks advertised as natural.

And 6 of those are already republicans. If they redistrict to eliminate all democrat districts, they get just 2 additional reps.

He’s right about 71 million voters.

She quickly figured out what the problem was and let me know how to correct it. I’m glad that we still have people like her in our government.

Update: I just got off the phone after only an hour wait and being passed to 4 different individuals. It turned out that I made a mistake on my tax form that will need to be corrected. I must admit that I was slightly paranoid given the cuts to the IRS. However when I finally got to the right person

Removing DEI is about allowing less qualified white men to get jobs over more qualified women and people of color.

Has anyone been notified that the IRS has ignored their 1099’s? I’m wondering if this is a simple mistake or something more wide spread in light of the massive firings of workers.

I was concerned about it, but found mine and my wife’s SSOC were deposited exactly on the evening expected. But considering the statements, I wouldn’t be surprised if someone decides to just skip payments for a month and make recipients call on busy phone lines to β€œverify” their existence.

Not holding my breath. Republicans think consequences are only for democrats

You know you’re getting old when your back goes out more than you do.

Years ago I took my girl to see Steve Martin’s the jerk movie for our first date. We’ve now been married for 44 years, so I guess the movie choice wasn’t a deal killer.

What happened to 538? It used to be my goto site for insight into various polls.

Maybe when the US grows up we can be more like Canada.

I’m not only that old, but my first computer was from a kit and boasted 64k RAM. And one 8 inch floppy drive. Way before the first IBM computer came out.

Why are the maga faithful trying so hard to kill us? From Trump’s drink bleach idea to rfk’s idea to eliminate vaccines, to the plan to increase pollution. Seems that we’re living in crazy times.

He’s actually right. But in spite of the rigging being done quite openly, Joe Biden still won.

My bingo card includes Vance and cabinet members invoking the 25th amendment citing Trump’s increasing dementia.
Or alternatively a massive stroke that makes it obvious that Trump will relinquish the presidency.

Align the two apples so that one cut will slice off 1/3 of each. Two people get 2/3 of the remaining parts of the apples and one gets the 2 1/3 pieces. So everyone gets 2/3 apple.

I have to disagree on your definition of tech. I would include routers and switches. A printer and other external devices could be argued as tech as well.
