fuck off fag, other peoples opinions matter as well.

I use ONLYOFFICE desktop apps on my local computer, and I love it. My niece also uses it, and doesn't really notice the difference to MS Office. I also have ONLYOFFICE Server running and integrated to Nextcloud so I can, if needed, open/edit files from a browser.

I am aware of the [dubious] complaints that Russians were once involved in its creation (WAY BACK in 2009), and I still don't care since everything is open source and on Github.

If someone asks a question where ONLYOFFICE can be a solution (recently, a proper PDF editor using open source software) I suggest it.

LibraOffice imo is the most behind of the three options, and Collabora Office works, but it is in no way similar in operation to MS Office making it a difficult sell to your mum/family.

I use LMS and it is fantastic. However not knowing your setup in detail, I cannot help you more.

1. LMS can stream to multiple devices, separately. (Different music in different rooms/devices).
2. LMS can stream simultaneously to multiple devices. (Same music across several devices).
3. Yes, it can chromecast (chromecast bridge extension). There is also an Airbridge extension.
4. Yes, there is a plugin to stream from YouTube (I don't use it, so I don't know if this includes or excludes YT music)

I looked through my extensions and I cannot see a 'spotcast bridge' option, but doesn't mean it doesn't exist. You'd have to look about, maybe github.

~~Finally, like you have 'snapclient' on the RPi's you can/could change them to 'chrome clients' (different project but same deal as the snapclient).~~ When checking, it seems the solutions that exist are pretty out of date, and there are comments that google has locked down on the 'chromecast api' that check the client is legit or not, through signed certificates. So everything is fine if you have legit chromecasts, but it might not be so successful with an emulated cc, such as VLC client or omxplayer.

More finally though, Logitech Media Server, is designed to be that - the central server of your music. Ideally you would have all your music locally, rather than on other services. So it probably isn't what you are looking for.

So far it's been amazing. Its like being in an Indiana movie, and still being in control. Plus you get to beat up baddies! There is also SO MUCH content (and I have only traveled to two locations!). Totally engaging.

You can expect Indiana dry/wry humor and all. It is all there.

IMO worth every $. (I'm a PC gamer first, it's a shame it wont come out on PS5 until next year, not that I have one. It will never come out on Switch, there is no way it could handle it).

DL from Steam was 100GB+

Selfhost Bitwarden. Has apps for everything, browser extensions and can be accessed via webpage as well.

To be honest, whilst I will do my daily ACNH routine, I will be consuming all the Indiana Jones and the Great Circle content I can.

I've not seen them, but I would imagine they are for office use, rather than home use. You would run into the same problem low volume inkjet users always run into, the ink dries out or clogs up the jets.

Toner has no such problem, and you can print 3000 pages regardless of if it takes 3 months or 3 years.

I didn't read the article but the straight reason is this: Printer companies adopted the "blades and razor" business model. The model was invented by Gillette, and if any of you here shave, you already know how it works.

1. Sell a new razorblade "system" for a loss price. Design it with a unique attachment system, locking purchaser into buying blades only supplied by that business.
2. Sell two pack blade replacement at about double the price of the original razorblade. 3 Stagger the prices of 3 pack, 4 pack and 5 pack, so they appear to add value, when actually the 5 pack cost of manufacture is still lower than the whole new razorblade "system" that was sold at a loss. But the 5 pack is marketed as "one free blade" based back on the two pack pricing.

Printer Companies did the same thing, sell a cheap inkjet at a loss (last Epson I bought was $49, a miniscule amount of ink and it had a scanner built in!!)

Now I offer you a challenge! (not really, you'll already know the answer if you have an inkjet and had to buy original refills).

A Brother MFC-L3760CDW is a colour laser printer/scanner/photo copier/fax/full duplex. It comes with (3 colours and black) enough toner for 3000 colour pages at purchase for a retail price $499.00

How much do you think it would cost you to get a inkjet printer, and enough ink to print 3000 colour pages? Also consider having a full duplex printer/photo copier/scanner/fax at your disposal.
