    ... but works fine on Windows and MacOS. It's up to 1.18.3 with no fix
    in sight for the program endlessly scanning whichever disc you insert
    into the drive.

    Meanwhile, ripping directly through Handbrake results in the subtitles
    being out of sync.

    I'm exhausted. It's just not worth the trouble.

    Say it ain't so!

    I think you're wearing yourself out with all this OS switching.

    I assume most of your personal documents are in LO formats, and you use
    LO on Windows and Linux?

    Do you use one Thunderbird/Betterbird message store, or do you just not
    care if you lose your Drafts and Sent history when you switch operating systems?

    When the program I use most doesn't work in Linux, we have a problem.

    Say it ain't so!

    I am.

    LO on Windows and Linux?

    I kept copies of my documents in Word format on the cloud, converting
    whatever was stored locally to ODT. Only a few new documents were made
    using LO on my other computer, and they'll be converted when I go into
    work tomorrow.

    Do you use one Thunderbird/Betterbird message store, or do you just not
    care if you lose your Drafts and Sent history when you switch operating systems?
    I only care about e-mail, and that's stored on an IMAP folder with no
    loss happening no matter which system I use. I care about my Usenet
    stuff as much as I care whether Joel Crump gets laid or not.
