First you live in rural Mississippi, now you live less than 75 miles from the Canadian border? Should I call you an asshole ignorant troll?

With the apparent rise of immutable spins, it might get to be even less since user space is separate the OS space. I'm trying Aurora on my laptop to see if there is any advantage to running an immutable spin over the standard distros. I'm kind of torn about it right now, there are some advantages to both and some downsides to both.
Having used LibreOffice and OnlyOffice, I find that if you need a full office suite, (and fortunately I don't anymore), LibreOffice has more 'stuff' in it and perhaps a bit better comparability with Microsoft 365 than OnlyOffice. Still, I had no real beef with OnlyOffice. It's a somewhat lighter on space the LibreOffice for sure.
Thankfully, all I really need anymore is AbbiWord and Gnumeric for my now simple and infrequent needs. Soooo much faster and lighter than a full office suite.
The numbers are still non-zero across the northern US. Needing a passport to shop at Walmart should be at least a hint that I'm over 1000 miles away from you. And I should probably be happy that I'm not as representative as you I suppose. In any case, enjoy your "rural" life.
Me, I'mma waiting for iceout on the lake and for the frost danger to go away, (about another 4 weeks), so I can get my garden in again.
And the left is often paralyzed by the "complexity" of a solution and offers little no refuge for those in need. Sadly making those half baked ignorant simple solutions the only thing offered.
Good for you. Where I live, there is still no cell service, (got to be in a town for that), and the US Postal Service will not deliver mail to my home, (I need to pay $165 a year to get a postal box in town to get my mail and I need to drive to get it). I do have internet most of the time, but that and the electricity can be sketchy in a storm, the hazards of living in a forest. So if I can't access that, Oh well, been there before. And I have lived many years without it. Like I said, we will just do without. Oh, and the nearest Walmart is in another country, Canada. I need an enhanced driver's license or passport to shop there. So I ain't missing much there either. The nearest hospital, (level 3, the "barely a hospital" level) is 50 miles away and the nearest ambulance is 20 miles away-- you have a heart attack, you will probably die before help gets there.
There is wannabe rural like you and then there is rural.
The difference is we are used to it. You are not.
Modern medicine, no matter how smart and clever we think we are, still mostly involves doing things that just keep the patient amused while letting nature take it's course.
Meh, the under lying extra noise is what those people are looking for and not the purity of the sound. Which supposedly ties back to the inherent sound of live music which isn't cleaned up digitally.
It's all potatoes no matter which kind of audiophile a person is.
I never like the glue line though.
It's supposed to be in the US also.
