Oh darn. I can't see that here in the Great White North.

Bummer. Just youtube 'SNL Cecily Strong'. Basically anything she is in is great. Especially her Weekend Update characters.

This is another great one, wonder if it works.

EDIT: And how could I forget the recurring "Girl You Wish You Hadn't Started A Conversation With At A Party".

 

[Lemon Merchant]

Shall do. Thanks.

Patients, Takh, patients. I'm at work right now.

 

[Takhisis]

Of course, of course.

Just found out that we can get 5 free MS office licenses via the university .

I also received today the package with my meal shakes, and the 2-factor authentification token from the bank has arrived .

I recommend Libre Office or Open Office (in that order) instead.

It's not nice to recommend someone sink their professional career.

 

[Takhisis]

Hey, it's based on my user experience with that software, both on Linux and Windows.

I normally use Libre Office, but right now I need to deal with some macro-enabled excel file, which Libre Office Calc just doesn't manage to open .
Turns out I also need to convert it further to .xlsx for further processing, and for that I also need the Excel executable.
So... can't help it right now .


Oh, did my usual 3k run earlier today, and that nearly without breaks. Think it's the first time since the quarantine started that I think I finished it with more sweating than panting .

I downloaded Libre Office but it is a torrent file and I have no program to open it.

Click the Download button, not the Torrent button. It will download as a .msi executable.

I posted my chapter.

BRB while I try not to pass out.

I'm very satisfied with Libre Office, but only because the only person I need to share files with is willing to accept them. If I were widely sharing files across a university net or corporate net I think I would have to have MS Office.

 

[JohannaK]

I mean MS Office is just neater, you know. If I can have it free through uni, as I used to, I'd get it.

@yung.carl.jung: 17 ways to cook eggs other than boiling or frying.

Well, technically 9 ways, and another 8 remain unlisted (????), and this is criminally excluded, but it's a starting point.
