  • My advice is try using existing documents with Libre office. You can install it on windows as well.

    I use Linux for over twenty years now and installed windows on a vm last week to Wirte my resume. Libre office is fine, you run into problems when opening and editing existing ms office documents. At least that is my experience.

    But give Libre office on windows a shot, see if you like it.










  • In the case of Ames, yes there was.

    From Wikipedia

    The CIA also realized that, despite Ames' annual salary being $60,000, he could afford:

    A $540,000 house in Arlington, Virginia, paid for in cash

    A $50,000 Jaguar luxury car

    Home remodeling and redecoration costs of $99,000

    Monthly phone bills exceeding $6,000, mostly calls by Ames' wife to her family in Colombia

    Premium credit cards, on which the minimum monthly payment exceeded his monthly salary

    In March 1993, the CIA and FBI began an intensive investigation of Ames that included electronic surveillance, combing through his trash and the installation of a monitor in his car to track his movements. From November 1993 until his arrest, Ames was kept under virtually constant physical surveillance. When, in early 1994, he was scheduled to attend a conference in Moscow, the FBI believed it could wait no longer, and he and his wife were arrested on February 21







  • I think this is the real issue here, jfc.

    A Des Moines Register/NBC News/Mediacom poll of likely Republican caucus voters released Monday found that Trump’s lead over DeSantis has grown by 5 points since his indictment in Georgia last week on 13 criminal charges related to trying to overturn the results of the 2020 election in the state.

    His approval went UP after the indictment. This is absolutely insane and only shows how hopeless US politics has become. How do you roll that division back? Can you even roll it back if everybody wanted to? This cat is out of the bag and I don’t see it going back in there any time soon.

    The only hope I’ve left is the division of the GOP itself. Let the extremists go somewhere else politically and it’ll hopefully lead to a more, what is the word again, fact based approach of politics when the extremists can be ignored because you don’t have to appease them.
