LibreOffice doesn't have an integrated email client, not sure about a calendar or integrated meeting scheduling. MS Office has Outlook, calendar, scheduling meetings, booking conference rooms, integrated skype conference calls... Where I work we live and breathe by meetings. LibreOffice will not be able to displace MS Office without these features.
On my personal systems Libre Office works just fine:

I've had the same problem since dumping Windows on my main personal platforms. The radar animations were interesting but not essential. I cannot name another site where Flash is essential.
The TFA contains the following:
"New evidence included recently subpoenaed phone records proving that McCullough made a collect call to his parents from a phone booth in the city of Rockford" Which suggests that the phone records were newly acquired.
The precision of the calculation can only be as good as the precision of the measurements. With mirrors and lenses we can use interference patterns to measure differences on the order of a wavelength of light. With spacecraft we can make some impressive measurements of velocity, mass, acceleration position using inertial guidance but that is at some level a mechanical measurement. Back to the mirror. Sixteen significant digits of Pi is 3.141592653589793 which should be adequate for calculations involving light which has wavelengths of 400nm to 700nm or.000 (milli) 000 (micro) 400 (nano) nnn (pico) nnn (femto) which gets you out to fifteen significant digits.
BTW I once told some managers I worked for:. "If builders built buildings the way analysts design systems, the first woodpecker would destroy civilization." This was after a spec was delivered two months late and they somehow blamed the developers for being two months behind and using up all of the slack in the schedule.
.01 millirems is 1 BED (Banana Equivalent Dose) The amount of radiation from the potassium-40 in one banana. https://xkcd.com/radiation/ is a handy chart that provides a scale of radiation. There's a good entry at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... (It uses Randall's chart)
Is this version 0.20.3 what you're talking about? I'll give it a shot when I have some time.

Will it do anything rude like load a screen locker that runs even when Gnome is started. xfce did this to me and the UI was so primitive I thought it was malware trolling for my password.
I ran Wayland during F23 Beta and on F23 for about ten weeks. It worked a lot better than in F22 but still has some usability issues. A couple of examples: In gedit the user should be able to drag a tab to a new window. In Wayland this causes gedit to crash. In XWayland apps such as Firefox or LibreOffice, the cursor will randomly disappear. Once that happens you have to restart Gnome. I am a bit frustrated with the lack of Wayland fixes in F23 promised here https://fedoramagazine.org/hel... That being said I encourage anyone running F23 to try Wayland. Most of the time you won't notice a difference. I'll run it on a spare system when F24 beta lands.
Comments like this are why I seldom waste time at Slashdot. The scheme of using a state court judge to authorize the warrants was developed during the BHO administration. "The number of wiretaps authorized in Riverside County started to climb in 2010; it quadrupled by 2014, when the county court approved 624 wiretaps" Who was president in 2010? Who held the reins of the DEA between 2010 and 2014?
Linus is damaging the reputation of Linux one profane outburst at a time. His conduct towards the developers, abusive language and such would get you fired in any Fortune 500 environment. CIO's will read about the petulant profane behavior in industry rags and ask themselves if they want to build an enterprise around software controlled by someone who cannot control his own emotions. Professional behavior is not about fake politeness or passive aggressive behavior. Professional behavior is about engaging your peers in civil discourse. You can say something is broken or the code is wrong with critical analysis and without angry profane screeds.
Wasn't Bose behind the "direct reflecting" loudspeaker? It couldn't have been designed by an engineer with a basic understanding of reflected waveforms, phase and wave interference. I listened to a set of these at a stereo shop in Monterey, California back in 1983. The space in front of me with sound, but the violin solo was distorted and smeared across the space.
Did you factor in the energy required for building and maintaining the wind turbines? Are they as green as you think? 14,000 Abandoned Wind Turbines in the USA Lays out a more comprehensive environmental cost of wind turbines including this:
Altamont's turbines have since 2008 been tethered four months of every year in an effort to protect migrating birds after environmentalists filed suit. According to the Golden Gate Audubon Society, 75 to 110 Golden Eagles, 380 Burrowing Owls, 300 Red-tailed Hawks, and 333 American Kestrels (falcons) are killed by Altamont turbines annually.
I was aware of wind turbine bird strikes. I didn't know the numbers.
Rat poison would be reckless endangerment. Like gun trapping an empty house. There are non lethal approaches.
A friend told me of a time at TPC where a plate of brownies laced with Ex-Lax was left in the fridge for the resident fridge thief. It worked well. Five brownies were missing. The suspected thief clocked out sick less than an hour into his shift and there was evidence that he didn't make it out of the building without shitting himself.
These might be a bit much for middle school kids. I'm not sure what they're capable of these days. Both are available on Amazon. The God Particle: If the Universe Is the Answer, What Is the Question? by Leon Lederman Zero: The Biography of a Dangerous Idea by Charles Seife
That was my thought. Evolution requires selective pressure that causes certain traits to become assets or liabilities. The coelacanth fills an ecological niche and doesn't have much if any competition in that niche except from other coelacanths.
Ahhh.. Deluxe Liquor and Sporting Goods in Roseville, Ca. How I miss thee. Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (Both rifles and handguns) in one convenient stop.
Store closed years ago but the memories live on.
No so contrived. These are the phones that are entering the used market. The early adopters are getting the next great iPhone and selling their old one. A lot of these users don't want to spend time or money upgrading the OS of an old phone and may be blissfully unaware of the security issues of the outdated OS.
Anyone remember the tech advertisement "Lost the Dongle" that ran in just about every IT rag published back in the nineties. It featured a picture of a famous nude statue that was missing its "dongle".
