I went from cable ear buds to Bluetooth era buds and now Bluetooth hearing aids. Not bad for $50.00 US funds. Works with iPhone also. Being a US Veteran helps.

I just remembered social dancing in the USA. Dancing since 1953 when I started taking lessons. Now over seventy seven. Never thought of it as a hobby. Foxtrot, Waltz. Today, various ballroom styles, swing, Salsa is a sensuous dance style I like. One partner is very good at this style. It can burn of...

When out and around, Pandora Music on my iPhone. Nice to use my Bluetooth equipped hearing aids. Style of music depends on my mood. Free with very minimal ads.
I have a lot of Classic Rock stored on the iPhone also.

Happy New Year everyone. It is quite a new one for me. Heart recently flat lined. After many chest compression's I ended looking up at a doctor lifting his hands of my chest and he said, welcome back. You have another life. Found out after the fact. Pacemaker keeps me going now when heart tries to s...

I do like experimenting with eBikes. My newest is a KHS, 27.5 inch mountain bike with a 48 volt 750 watt Luna motor and controller mounted right under the pedal assembly. Display on the center part the handle bar and looks like an iPhone mounted horizontally. Five levels of assist and can be turned ...

Linux does not need to be sexy. It is a tool.Get a life folks. Even the women names here for Mint are lame. The numbers keep it it simple. Many do not understand the KISS principle. Techies like to make life more complicated than necessary.

Something I have noticed about any Office App. Sometimes I delete all info but do not close the document. Kater when shutting down the PC the App ask me if I want to save a blank document? Duh.

Not really sure how the OP installed LibreOffice but I installed it a few years ago after using OpenOffice for some years. LibreOffice has always worked ok for me but I do not mess with the software. Ex Windows user.
I also use LibreOffice in my W10 PC.

Ok, thanks guys. I will give it a try. I occasionally like to keep up with the distro changes. I do keep all my files on an external hard drive.
Cheers.

I was using Ubuntu and it was missing stuff and did not like the forums.
I found that Mint 6 had just been released and had just about everything I needed. All I needed was a video player.

Around Dec. 2003. I had purchased a desktop PC from Walmart online with Lindows on it. It became Linspire shortly after. Windows did not like the name. lol
I started here with Mint 6. Ubuntu forums at the time were a real pain.

Hi All I have been watching a long discussion about not using Mint 19.0. I have been using Linux since 2003 but not really into the software part. Internet, Videos, Letters, Text sometimes. I bought a DVD with Mint 19.0, Cinnamon 64 bit with the Mint label on it from Amazon. A few years ago I bought...

Some observations on life: In San Antonio, the best parking spot is not the closest, it is the one with the most shade. For those who live in south central Texas you know what I mean. Yes, I have been there twice. Oldest daughter lives in Copperas Cove, Tx. I live in Western Mass. Enjoyed touring F...

I have them in the house for pure power and power outages.
Just Google Uninterruptible power supplies. All the answers are there. But you already got your answers anyway.

No problem in my area. I am only concerned about distance. I have never seen or heard of any issues on the rail trails in my area concerning eBikes. I belong to about four different rail trail forums in Western Mass. My city police department ha bicycles with officers that can use them and a motoriz...

Yes, I agree. They are great. Love the App.
I have to remember my Bluetooth adapter in the car captures my iPhone GPS when traveling if the radio is off. It is one or the other.

I have been using a iPhone SE since it came out. At 77 it is ok for me.
I also have an sixth generation iPad for reading books since I can adjust the font size and keep many books on hand.
I keep a PC with W10 just for these two.

I posted about a year or two ago. Upgraded to a new bike. At over seventy seven and arthritis in both knees I now use a modified 27.5 inch modified KHS 200 bicycle with a 48 volt 750 watt Luna mid motor and 14.5 amp battery. Capable of 52 volt also. Motor and controller mounted near pedal assembly. ...

I am in the USA and right now listening to Pandora music on my iPhone while on my PC and watching Rad Sox baseball. Bluetooth Hearing aids for music so stepson not bothered. lol Mostly classic rock as I dance three or four nights a week. Over seventy seven and still dancing. Have a number of women w...

I have been running Linux since 2003. No problems. Right now I run a laptop with W10. Much too difficult to dual boot with Linux. I tried. I refuse to spend hours maybe days on the forums trying to figure it out. It use to be easy before W10. I also run Mint on an older Acer laptop quite well. Not s...
