I agree. However there are some gems. Got one good piece of advice from https://lemmy.world/u/BombOmOm and now I’m on the Linux train (at least on one laptop anyway).

The best way I’ve heard it explained is that excel is too good at doing too many, but it isn’t the correct tool for many of those things. Since it’s good and accessible, people make it work and then you get this jumbled mess of stuff after time passes.
I do like the control aspect. I also really enjoy how clean it feels compared to windows.
If it works well (and I mean very well), I will consider doing the same on my main machine. The one the family uses. Maybe just set it up so I boot both windows and Linux… Either way. Very happy with the results so far.
Back to this comment to report that I took the dive. I have a second laptop that wasn’t getting used so I wiped it and installed Linux mint. Love it so far and no issues with any of the basics. Took me all of 1 hr to get up and running.
Maybe. I use Settings for quick things like Bluetooth pairing, changing monitor settings, etc. I do use Control Panel a decent amount and would never want it deprecated though.
This is collectively bargained though and no way the players agree to this.
Maybe I’ll need to try something with it side by side .
Interesting. I don’t know if I’d ever describe the coffee I brew as oily or anything like that. I suppose I have to try this sometime.
So what’s the benefit of an aero press over a French press? I’ve used the French press for years and I always see people loving aero press. I’m curious what the differences are.
I have as well. I won’t pretend I’m always right - I’ve thought some ideas that worked out incredibly were horrible. Also had the situation you describe happen. It’s okay when you’re working with reasonable people. Show them the slide deck, the email, the analysis, whatever… “Look you didn’t approve this”. "Here is an alternative ". That can work.
Just telling folks “I told you so” isn’t usually a great form of communication.
Internally people probably talked about how there were huge issues. Others probably said those issues are over stated and it’s no big deal. They decided to release it and the press says there are issues. Then, the company decides there are issues. That simple.
Good to know and thanks for the tip. This was back when I did more on a personal computer, but I remember spending hours just trying to get software to work. Again, this isn’t something I need to worry about today, but getting Octave (free version of Matlab) to work on Linux was a nightmare.
There are a lot of communities but they’re just not super active. Id make posts but I’m much more of a commentor.
I didn’t realize this. I just heard about the rumor like yesterday on a podcast!
Don’t disagree, it’s just fascinating to see it all play out.
Who knows if it’s true, but there was a rumor that the Vikings wanted to trade up to draft a WR. Could have been a lead up to a trade of him… But it’s speculation. But that is the answer to your question.
I do too! I try to comment but I feel like I’m often just talking to myself lol.
Omg! I feel like that is happening with my Alexa device recently… I thought it was me, but this comment is making me wonder.
They try, but nowadays you can have your new carrier buy you out!
