Basically, there are many businesses in the USA who won't ship internationally for many reasons.
Yup. I have a friend who lives in Cambodia and almost no one will ship anything there...so he buys stuff on Amazon, has it sent to my home, and I re-ship it to him.
I read the whole summary and I still don't understand what the fuck they mean by reshipping or how the scam is being done.. Don't they know how to summarise properly anymore ?
It would hardly be sporting for the editors to have any explanatory information in the summary, now would it?
Slashdot is one of the few paces that routinely publishes "summaries" that are 100% content-free. I always marvel at how they do it- you'd think that a stray bit of info would find its way into the summary by chance once in a while but that doesn't seem to be the case here.
The document mentioned in the summary repeatedly uses the term "Java" when they mean "javascript". That's such a rookie mistake that it's difficult to take anything else they say seriously.
Yeah, mixing up "java" and "javascript" is kind of a conversation-stopper as far as I'm concerned. It makes my Credibility-O-Meter drop into the negative numbers.
What he's outlined may well be true, but damn, that's is the kind of mistake that makes you wince.
its free, download it and see for yourself, its the only way to get an unbiased opinion
Thanks. I'll probably do that but I wanted the opinions of people who were experienced with either or both of the applications, since they're more likely to know of things that I might miss. These are, after all, suites with a lot of moving parts and it's easy to overlook something unless you've used it a fair bit.
I'm still using a crusty old copy of MS Word/Excel 2002 but I'm considering switching to either Open Office or LibreOffice...LO seems to have been kept more current, but I suspect either of them would suffice for my modest needs (word processing and the occasional spreadsheet).
Could anyone tell me...
1) Are there any genuinely significant differences between them that make one preferable to the other?
2) Do either of them properly open those f*cking.DOCX files? I'm using the MS Word inline converter but opening and saving are a crap shoot. Sometimes it works, sometimes it scrambles shit beyond comprehension.
3) Do either of them save as.DOCX or.DOC, since that seems to be what most employers and recruiters insist on sending/receiving?
The fuckwads at the Brainless Bumbling Cock-suckers have no fucking right to get a fucking trademark on something so fucking generic. Naturally they would because, after all, they created the shittiest show of all time, Doctor Poop and the British are so fucking stupid is it any wonder only fucktarded USian and British sheeple watch it.
I'm not a Dr Who fan (I think it's a pretty silly show, to be honest) but if others like it, more power to them. They probably don't like some of the stuff I like, and that's fine with me too.
I realize that we are in a new age where there are people who like to brag about how they think pans are incredibly sexy, but I don't see why it is important to know that the guy making this data center is a switch.
I think it has something to do with "bi-directional port sharing", if you know what I mean and I think you do.
The popularity of Kim Kardashian is undeniable proof that you are correct.
For additional confirmation, see Kiss (the band), Dr Who, every "boy band" that ever existed, hipsters, and Charlie Sheen. (Please note that this list could be much, much longer)

Are you a stay-at-home mom making $3,000 per month working 2h a day, like in the ads?
I wish. I'm a stay-at-home slacker making omelettes and excuses.

Another way to drain my wallet, yippee!
It's like a dream come true. Thank you, corporate overlords!
Sarcasm?
Heaven forbid, lol.
"You see honey, when two comets love each other very, very much, they give each other a special kind of hug...."
How can I explain this to my kid?

There are ways to defraud The Google? That's unpossible!

Trust me, it's not just you. I think this post gave me brain cancer.
find the missing word(s) in the parent post...
Lol, would they be "I'm", "a", and "spammer"?
That's some serious word salad he's got goin' on there.
Don't worry, it's just Windows 10 trying to download.
Those sneaky bastards will try anything, won't they?
Be careful, the link to "thestack.com" appears to be polluted, and clicking it will attempt to download an 11.6G file.
I see the same thing. In the immortal words of whatshisname, "Something's fucky..."

And it'll be funded by the NSA, so you know it'll be good!
What's popular is usually inane and stupid.

But does it work at night or in the dark? Inquiring minds want to know.
"a civilian balloon broke loose from its mooring, destroying a grounded JLENS blimp that had cost about $182 million."
I'm sure that'll buff right out.
The easiest way is just don't install this craptastic pile of shit in the first place.
What if I don't want Google to save a record of what I visit and download?
Then you're screwed, because they'll save what they want regardless of what you want.
I am not one bit surprised that their "incognito" mode tracks and saves stuff. After all, citizen, those ads aren't going to sell themselves.
Bah.
My feelings exactly. :)
I like your AQFL stuff, BTW. Bookmarked it, too. :)
