On my Dell XPS 13 Ultra book, used primarily for research, Face Book, Amazon, and web games, I installed LibreOffice in the off chance I may need to create, edit, or view a document. I opened it up a grand total of once... to make sure it worked after install.
For me, I no longer use a computer to create documents, and PDF's have become the gold standard for read-only digital documents and editable forms. My college days of typed reports are gone, and the cloud makes traditional file keeping less relevant.
In my experience it seems the "Office Suite" is becoming less and less relevant.
Allowing over a billion Chinese workers willing to earn far less to compete directly with higher paid Western workers sounds good to me. Every company out there would rather pay their employees well, than earn a greater profit through reduced payroll expenses, and every consumer would rather pay 3 times more for the same product because it is made in their home country.
Well, on the upside, not allowing service oriented businesses to operate on each other's soil would spare billions of Chinese users from suffering the horrors of Windows as a Service (Windows 10).

There is a fair bit of water to cross over, so yes, it is more difficult - depending on which map app you use.
He's sorry aye.
Remember, In Soviet China, the rules operate you.
No it's the other guy, Hillary.
Well, I for one, welcome my new Dvorak Simplified Chinese Character keyboard overlords.
Version 5.0 finally "turns the tables" on the competition!
"It works just as well as anything else".
That just about sums it up. How much more can you cram into a digital typewriter that 99% of the population needs?

No wonder their coffee tasted so bad!
Didn't they call for a recount?
But can it fly?
Well, I for one welcome our tiny Par 72 Golf Overlords!
It took 30 years to come up with a Roomba with night vision?
I was one of the 256 voters who voted 8bit. The system is rigged, I just know it. It's somewhere in the numbers...
But some robots are more equal than others.

In Soviet America you do not call the phones, the phones call you.
Does this mean that robots are protected under the U.S. Constitution?
Can they vote for the candidate they are calling for?
Walmart will sure be different.
Robo-greeter: "Good afternoon sir, how can I help you?"
Me: "Siri, show me where the iPhone 9 is sold"
I know many people who live in neighborhoods that may "claim" your package at your doorstep for you, thus they opt for the PO Box route.
I have never had that problem, I think a package was mistakenly delivered to my neighbor once by USPS but my neighbor gave it to me.
Can I get an extra large pepperoni with extra cheese and mushrooms?
