Why not just use the straw?

To each their own. Personally I can't stand MS Office, I think Google Docs is easier for most nontechnical people these days anyway. For the rare cases when Office is needed, the web version works fine on Linux.

LibreOffice works great, and WPS Office is proprietary but at least it's free.

Personally I write my documents in markdown and use pandoc to convert them into PDF or docx or whatever. It's like writing the source code and then compiling, I like it.

I'm sure you've looked into all that, but for anyone else who is interested in alternatives those are my recommendations.

Pfft, proprietary propaganda. How hard is it to let go of every app you're familiar with, learn half a dozen scripting languages, and memorize a hundred different commands in vim?

What you say is true, though I've become so jaded with Microsoft that I don't think there's any software or situation I'd use Windows for; I'd sooner switch to Mac.

What do you have against Linux?

It's not an either-or situation. Vote for Kamala and organize for socialism. Voting is super easy, it just takes a little time once every four years.

I fully believe a socialist revolution will only be made exponentially more difficult under Republican leadership, it wouldn't make anything better, and it would hurt many people I love.

A 3.5" cartridge slot with a hard drive reader in it sounds kinda awesome, not gonna lie.

She got 60% of young woman voters, but the enthusiasm was much less. Fewer than 20% of democrats said they were enthusiastic to vote for Hillary.

Who numbered this, Hideaki Anno?

Well we didn't see that enthusiasm for Hillary so I have no idea what you're on about.

Also, and I wasn't expecting I'd have to say this today, women aren't horses. Additionally, horses are actually pretty egalitarian with their leadership; that's why they're such good allies for humans, they don't mind being led by a person instead of a horse.

Tl;Dr: every part of your comment is wrong.

Also there's no laws being passed to make it illegal.

Hmm. I see the argument, but it seems to be more like an issue with pricing than a flaw with HSR. Once high speed track is in service it should be able to run plenty of trains all around the clock, I can see how it could make low speed rail seem redundant.

I'd think it would make more sense to keep the low speed tracks and use them for freight, and also make high speed rail cheaper to ride.

Anyone else see the back of the chair as the person's hair in the first two panels?

Isn't the choice between removing england or getting the soda? You can have your England and drink it too.

That H-O-T-T-O-G-O verse is such an earworm.

Haha, I'm glad you liked it. I was a little bit drunk and worried it might not be as funny to everyone else as it seemed in my head at the time.

Yeah, a bite is more like a dagger than a short sword. Plus barbarians already get an extra +2 damage while raging, which makes their bites average more than a d6 plus strength with the same max damage.

Beast barbarians can even cause their teeth to grow during a rage giving them a d8 bite attack.
