If you’d like to be horrified, Alpha Phoenix shows how to make election maps that don’t look like they’ve been gerrymandered, and might be hard to spot what is wrong with them!

Wikipedia can also be useful to find software - e.g.:

• https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_vector_graphics_editors
• https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_integrated_development_environments
• https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_audio_player_software

or look at the Wikipedia page for whatever you want to replace and see if it’s in a category such as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Audio_editing_software_for_Linux

Had a “pay as you go” contract since 1997 (not with T) - they told everyone that you need a new SIM for a network upgrade which required deactivating the original SIM. New SIM didn’t work in normal (Nokia 1110) phones. Then they sent SMS saying that they weren’t going to honour the original PAYG phone contracts.

In English is this why we say fifteen instead of tentyfive?
