How do you get rid of junk paper?
Comments (10)Larry, it is my understanding that slick paper like magazines doesn't compost well. I have a friend who gives me her shredded junk paper (in a paper bag). I throw in wet peelings (like fruit/veggie/coffee grounds) and roll down the top and put the bag and all upside down into my compost pile. The paper bag contains the shreds longer until they less likely to blow around. I would think you could do the same with non shredded paper. I have done a lot of the sheet composting with paper on the bottom. It works well. If you mulch paths, you could use it there. or you could vermicompost....(worm bin)....See MoreWin 8 upgrading to Win 10?
Comments (17)Thanks for the responses. We have a Win8 sitting on a shelf collecting dust for 2 years. Never use it anymore. We also have 4 XP's and a Win 7. I've used Win 7 (hubbys machine), but prefer XP. I don't know if I'm resistant to change, I like to think I'm not. But I think Win 8 is dumb and would take me a lot of time to navigate it. I've used it. Did not try classic shell. Hate all the icons and not finding the frequently used places hidden. I don't like the disappearing tool bars. I just think its dumb and regret ever buying it. I don't see any reason for MS to change things around which takes precious time to figure out. Things like Add/Remove, various other settings...it all takes time out of your life to play around when you have work to do. You can buy a new car, it might have added extras and new things which take time to learn. But, no matter what car it is, when you open the door, put the key in the ignition, move the transmission to D, it goes. You can drive around and worry about learning the 'extras' later. You can press on the gas pedal and it goes. To have to learn another operating system and where MS decided to hide things, call them by other names is ridiculous. Same with their Office Programs. They are expensive and complicated to use. Yet they change them around ever few weeks. Why? I do a lot of work on my computers. I don't like having to learn all over again when I have things to do. I didn't like Visa at all, but had to deal with it. I kept my XP because I had Office 07 and I could put together a bunch of letters and newsletter quickly. I gave Vista away and went back to XP exclusively. I wonder if Apple changes their Macs every 3 years? Have no idea but am getting tempted to take a look at their computers. That's my rant, sorry if I seem to be the only one who is very upset with Microsoft for all this nonsense. Jane...See MoreHow can I get back to my old system and lose Win 10
