No point doing it now, but I think it's probable that modern tech could do it these days, and quite easily.

Indeed, for most of us, a simple word processor is all we need, or even want; for my purposes, I find a lot of the features of modern word packages to be redundant. It's rather like Lightroom, they come up with this feature and that feature, but I hardly use any of it (and won't be renewing this...

Obviously, when used for work and income, MS Office would be the way to go, but for amateur pratting about, Libre is fine.

Me too. I had Apache Open Office for quite a long time but it is largely unsupported now so I've moved on to Libre. I've often wondered what the people at Libre get out of giving away such a fully-functional piece of software, I mean, there are no adverts, no requests for money. My suspicious...

My Adobe runs out in January and I shall not be renewing as I really only use it to crop, adjust exposure, etc. basically anything that could easily have been achieved in a home darkroom in the film era; it just won't be worth the money, no matter what deals there are. I will definitely be...

I was with BT years ago and even then, you could access other people's routers via 'Hotspots'. I recently came back to BT/EE and I suppose nothing has changed. I don't live anywhere busy so the likelihood of anyone using my broadband, let alone a lot of people at once, is very low. I can't see...

It is so weird, as an exception to what I said in my last post, I really can't imagine what it's like to not be able to imagine. My wife doesn't claim to imagine things either and when I told her once that I 'see' the months of the year in a certain pattern, or the days of the week, or numbers...

I can imagine things from any perspective, I definitely don't have aphantasia; I can even imagine myself looking at me through the eyes of someone I'm talking to. However, while I can imagine all sorts of things, the translation from mind's-eye to finished product is a much more difficult thing...

I always say I have the last camera I will ever own, and I always make that not true. However, having moved from full-frame to MFT, I can't see me ever going FF again as whatever a FF camera with lenses can do, it cannot shed it's weight and that's the killer for me. In response to the OP, my...

How about an Olympus OM-D E-M10? With a 17mm prime (34mm equiv) it fits in most pockets, it is not really bigger than the Fuji X100.

I have found that I hardly use my LRC these days and when I do, it's just to crop pictures and adjust exposure. It's really not worth me spending on a subscription any more and when this one runs out in January, that'll be it and I'll either use a free one or a standalone app that I can buy and...

Nothing wrong with being non-binary, I mean, look at the science: Put 10 binary men on an island and in 100 years you will have two men and they'll be four years older.

I take photographs for memories if the subject is personal, and for aesthetics if I just like the image. There are so many people taking photographs of anything and everything out there that there has to be something very notable in an image before someone would look at your photo above anyone...

Well, I'm off to bed, they've delayed the match by an hour to 2am UK; I'm not THAT interested.
