Also, PR crisis back at home due to the numerous politcal scandals and need to make sure their grip won't loosen before the next election cycle.

Some people need it, some people don't. If you're looking for a better alternative, @libreoffice is the way to go.

I am now wondering if I should still have the keyboard and battery repaired/replaced despite it being out of warranty. I also have an old #ASUS TUF FX505DT gaming laptop with a GTX1650 GPU that probably needs a motherboard replacement.

Is the latter worth trading in or sell to repair the macbook or just sell everything and get a new gaming laptop or an M4 macbook.

Earlier this year, I acquired a relative's #macbook air M2 2022 (14,1 model). It had a column of keys that aren't responding (starting from 4 to the C key). I've been using an external split keyboard when using it on a desk or accessing the non-functioning keys with the accessibility keyboard.

I sort of see the appeal of using it as a truly portable workstation after discovering #Homebrew. Since its resurgence as a premium device, I had the impression that most useful apps had to be paid for.

I'm ready for a regime change back home.

Well that means tech problems newer than 2025 won't get answered at all because nobody is asking people anymore and no new training data for the slop models is coming in as people stop doing that work for free.
