Seconding Linux Mint!

I came to linux because I was building a new pc at the time win11 came out, and I saw how much more like apple it looked.

I wasn’t afraid to try linux because I’d already done some easy mods to my steam deck (decky and retropi). Using the steam deck’s computer desktop was almost like using older windows to me; I appreciated that.

Downloading programs was like android to me; using the system’s app store, or sideload an app or a second app store, or follow the dev’s readme.txt. Easy, fun, free, ad-free.

I downloaded different linux distributions to a bunch of spare thumb drives and tried them one at a time. I figured, the moment I had a problem that lasted more than an hour with one distro, I’d move on to the next. If I couldn’t hack it past four tries, I’m going back to windows 10.

Linux Mint was the second attempt, and it’s pretty intuitive to use, imo. It feels like the ease of using android, but with a desktop and my beloved windows-style taskbar.

Nah, it’s not this trilogy. IIRC, His Dark Materials is about a girl and a boy and people’s spirit animals, parallel universes, and smiting god (probably).

WHOLESOMENESS. I love this series’ wholesomeness ;u;

Also, for awareness, the author has a fanbox (it’s like patreon, I think?) at https://izumi000.fanbox.cc/

I definitely feel like saying it again - it works! Thank you. For sure, I can modify the if statement for what I’m working with. Thank you so much!

To clarify the first, yes to your example, I think so. I’m trying to optimize my scanning process, so, optimally, yes, I would only record all A numeric values in one go, and not come back to them again for the rest of the list. Good question; I never thought about this as a complication. So, I have shelves among shelves with a strict naming convention and containers with a different naming convention. I’m figuring out how to help me and my family be lazier and just capture the shelf name, then all the stuff there, then move on to the next place.

To clarify the second concern, yeah, I meant to make the comma denote two separate cells. I’m not sure how to make a table on lemmy through the Boost app.

Thanks for checking. I asked ChatGPT3.5 to make a solution with excel since I have limited access to it at work. CG came up with making my data a table with Power Query & using a Fill tool, but Fill>Down isn’t doing what CG is saying it’s supposed to do.

I hope I could do this at home though because I only have Onlyoffice & Libreoffice, & excel in the browser is so limited.

Have they changed the joystick material yet? The joysticks off my ol’ 8bitdo pro (the original) kept shedding with use, so I stopped using it in lieu of the switch and steamdeck controllers. Gods, the controller was way more comfortable and sized just right than any other 3rd party controller for me. My google fu is weak, so I never found fitting thumbpad covers for it.

I feel like every time I tell someone I know that I use linux mint, I’m coming across like I’m saying “I use Arch by the way” *eyebrow wiggle*

“On the bright side, I gave $300 to the cause against Christianity.” ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

For real. When one of my friends dropped his phone and cracked the screen ,we saved it by checking and backing up his stuff through samsung dex. Smart Switch doesn’t work through dex though, so we still had to guess where the buttons were on an all white screen to work it through the phone.

I didn’t realize til shopping around recently that most flagship phones’ type C ports are only usb 2 instead of USB 3 like the Samsung S series phones. I reeeally wanted HDMI out in case I needed it in a pinch, too.

Hohhh - THE PoppinKREAM!? I was in shock seeing your name pop up so soon in my time here, lol.

Okay to ask if you could add dates to the bullet pts? It’d be easier to visualize a timeline of these, I think.

True, and we should invite people with enough wisdom to determine when asking for advice is above the Anonymous Public’s paygrade.

Does this author have a patreon or fanbox? :0 Finding this manga so early in its chapters feels like being there at the start of a manga before it became a viral anime D:
