  • To each their own. Personally I can’t stand MS Office, I think Google Docs is easier for most nontechnical people these days anyway. For the rare cases when Office is needed, the web version works fine on Linux.

    LibreOffice works great, and WPS Office is proprietary but at least it’s free.

    Personally I write my documents in markdown and use pandoc to convert them into PDF or docx or whatever. It’s like writing the source code and then compiling, I like it.

    I’m sure you’ve looked into all that, but for anyone else who is interested in alternatives those are my recommendations.

    ‘we let’ women have rights? Women fought tooth and nail for years to get those rights, and assholes are still trying to claw them away; fuck, there’s places in the US right now where women are dying because their access to healthcare has been sabotaged by a supreme court that reinterpreted the constitution to remove their rights.

    Hmm. I see the argument, but it seems to be more like an issue with pricing than a flaw with HSR. Once high speed track is in service it should be able to run plenty of trains all around the clock, I can see how it could make low speed rail seem redundant.

    I’d think it would make more sense to keep the low speed tracks and use them for freight, and also make high speed rail cheaper to ride.
