Sprinkler mode, I love it.

It also had lots of fun facts to boot, including statistics about broccoli.

I’m pretty sure that Mulan was a great heroine. Also I think you were using the wrong language.

I kind of did and it took a distro or two… But arch (EndeavourOS) is keeping me on track with all tasks I need to perform at work (one program is wine based, and office is dealt with just fine with libre - I’m a high school teacher by the way) and well … I used the command line to use ghostscript and OCR some documents. This was all right inside Linux by the way, no downloading extra packages. It worked goddamn fine.

Not surprised, it was a bit of a niche project that was quite hard to get into (the options took a bit of reading around to understand what they were on about). It is easy enough to find the flavour of UI you want and more from the arch distros out there (I just found I actually do need cups on my EndeavourOS gnome distro and that’s something I didn’t toggle (printing). Time to throw in some cups and foomatic packages in there). So again, it’s about purpose and as much as I would have liked to have gotten into something about customisation, I’ve kind of already got a minimal-ish distro to work on.

Brave is a fairly recent outlier, and while it isn’t quite proprietary, it stinks a fair bit of something capitalist/crypto.

Are you asking for Sanskrit? Why not fcitx5.

I was really worried I’d need to use Foxit Phantom Pdf just to edit a pdf a couple of weeks ago, but libre office draw was very little hassle, with the exception of a bit of shifting of text.

I used OnlyOffice thinking ‘Hey, this is a really similar alternative to MSO!’ Then bugs with slide previews and their ordering happened in the middle of presentations and even worse, memory usage ground my laptop to a halt (electron apps open up with close to 1GB of memory, such as obsidian).

Libre office still hasn’t crashed and the slide previews are accurate. The interface has always been a bit…unrefined even with the new tabbed layout but I can live with that.

PowerPoints suffer from lack of smart objects, and in the case of using Linux, font conversion. But it’s just that we’ve got to persevere with it. 😅

Nortan Antivirus 😂

I run Arch EndeavourOS on an old ThinkPad Yoga and it’s good. Fingerprint devices unfortunately seem to be heavily suppressed in Linux by whatever proprietary or encrypted firmware trash is going on, but those devices are not really important.

I also said pp out aloud and chuckled like a little boy.
