Maybe an old gas station with a new purpose

And I still end up doing it wrong

Wow, you’re right. Teams is not fully supported. Apparently Video and Sharing in Meetings is limited. Didn’t know that. Well that sucks

I don’t know how many normal sites even have a problem with Firefox. I guess only some small, niche web apps, but otherwise most people would see no difference. Even if developers don’t explicitly test on Firefox, almost all features will still just work (at least for normie usage). Power users might encounter some challenges, as the post describes.

I use Firefox btw. (not Arch though)

Yeah, it certainly has the flow of stream of consciousness. After a while I got used to it and then, it indeed becomes quite accessible

All right, you got me. I’m gonna have a look at the chapter myself

Yes, that is exactly what Joyce would’ve wanted!

The atmosphere really sounds amazing. I’ve never been to Ireland, but if get the opertinity it would be cool to walk through the city on Bloomsday.

I read Ulysses once and not even scratched the surface, but the geography sounds like a interesting topic to dive into. A companion book could be useful, but I guess it would also take a lot more time to get through the read.

If the quotation marks are a stylistic choice than so be it. Makes it harder to read though. The last chapter is missing any kind of punctuation as far as I know, so that has to be a wild ride

MicrosoftChrome.exe sounds like a great name for a virus or something

For those wondering which xkcd:

I never learned JavaScript and I can very happily say, I won’t need it for my career. Hopefully.

I might have the opposite problem lol. Too much I want to read and too little time. I always wanna read them all.

To narrow it down, I search in my library/libby app and then pick the one currently available.

Edge is just an edgy meme at this point

Duckduckgo. I stpped using google for the privacy stuff but I stayed because of the language switch.

I don’t know if I tweaked a setting to achieve it, but I have a language switch below the search bar. Google always showed me german results when searching for something english and the other wy around, so I love this feature. Search results are good enough for me, so duckduckgo it is.

When I first switched to linux, the only reason I didn’t give up was because I couldn’t figure out how to burn windows onto a flash drive from a Linux machine.

Okay, that is hilarious

I guess most non-technical people are always fighting their computer. It is really hard to watch my grandma do anything on any device, but she’s managing windows pretty well compared to her android phone (with accessibility settings), because she has used it the longest. Even the tech-savvy Windows users are probably used to some windows quirks and work around them, just like GNU/Linux users open a terminal as a reflex. And if anything is different, it will always feel like fighting your OS. I think the problem is the change, not the OS

Never ever. I don’t know why, but I just can’t stand the idea of writing in my books. I don’t care if its spine is broken or the book is otherwise damaged, the inside must be clean and untouched.

But I tolerate you all, as long as you don’t underline stuff in mine when I lend them to you

I’m mainly using Fedora these days, but for some games I still have to dualboot Windows, which I can’t say I’m enjoying. Just over an hour ago the Nvidia drivers crashed. On Windows. Repeatetly.

Anyway, I’m quite happy with Fedora but I haven’t tried many OS to be honest. I prefer stability over the slight advantages other OS might have

I don’t see a probelm, I always compress my attachements to a postcode file before putting them in the envelope

Yeah, you’re right. Most people probably lack practice and that is why their handwriting isn’t clean. I’m still very happy I don’t have to write official documents by hand.

Interestingly enough, everybody at university nowadays takes notes with their tablet, so kind of returning to handwriting. Why? Laptops are great for texts and all, but ever tried to write down math or draw a quick graph while your professor’s hand is moving at the speed of light? The freedom of sketching whatever Greek letter your lecturer is making up is not replaceable by a keyboard. I don’t care whether on paper or touchscreen, but I don’t think we should or could abandon handwriting.
