I had a double-sided suitcase type thing with slots for the cassette cases, it must have held 50 at least. That was on my car

And a wooden rack in the house that held dozens. I still have it and the cassettes in a closet somewhere.

I had a big cassette organizer. Later CD wallets.

CDs were so much better than cassettes. But as soon as I could get an MP3 player in the mid 1990s I was over CDs forever. The first car MP3 player I had was a dock for a computer hard drive, it had a faceplate that displayed file info and a knob to select songs/folders.

Yeah I keep seeing videos about new small trucks from Toyota and Subaru. Was disappointed when I realized the info was false.

Yeah LibreOffice will do things like mail merges, but I mean it will probably require relearning the process. It will be different than the process they used with MS Office.

If you just porting over simple things like letters and simple documents you should be able to move back and forth between MS Office and LibreOffice with few changes.

I don’t remember exactly where I read it originally, but this article says something similar: nbcnews.com/…/earthquake-shakes-us-east-coast-rcn…

Earthquakes on the East Coast can be felt at a great distance and can cause more pronounced shaking in comparison to those on the West Coast because rocks in the region are often older, harder and more dense.

“These are competent rocks that transmit energy well,” Simons said.

The beginning of crappy unreliable service in my area happened years before DeJoy. It was when they closed down a ~5 year old local processing facility and started sending all the mail to a regional facility 60 miles away.

I was with someone who was upset when I left her alone. She finally divorced me.

You need someone who is low maintenance like yourself. Someone who doesn’t need constant validation from you to feel complete. Or a friend with benefits. Both exist but can be tricky to find.
