I do a lot of work with CSV files and LibreCalc is so much better for them. You can actually tell it how to delimit the file and to put quotations around each field.

Some programs actually advise against using excel if you’re going to work on a CSV to upload into the program, which is funny considering it’s meant to be the industry standard.

P. S. For anyone that would like to use LibreOffice at work, download portableapps and get it from there. It’s so portable it can get around IT administration requirements

It will probably get replaced by generative AI slop soon so middle managers don’t need to pay anyone

Thanks. I’ll give that a go because that’s the only issue I have with games now

The main problem was Siege with my friends over lockdown. Even on the lowest settings my framerate would drop whenshootouts happened on screen.

I hooked it up to the TV recently and got through Pseudoregalia fine. It would handle any modern 2D or basic 3D game alright.

I also tried Art of Rally, and whilst it works, I had to turn all the settings down. That is such a beautiful game that low settings don’t do it justice

I’ll have to hunt around for it. MyAbandonWare only has the windows version, thanks for the tip

If you want to play it and get really desperate you could try a VM running 95 or 98 but that’s a lot of setup

I figure since WINE is already faking being windows, it’s easier to fake what type of Windows it is. By comparison, Windows has a lot of it’s own problems

I like GNOME on the laptop but it feels better suited for laptops and touchscreens. I know plasma is really good now and really customisable, and I’d even consider Mint as I’ve put it on another laptop before but a more gaming centric distro should have some added dependencies included

I plan to now. A friend helped me put it together and that’s where I learnt how to make a bootable drive to install an OS.

I used to use that PC for work on the sneaky so I could do other stuff at home easily, but I’ve changed job and that’s not a concern anymore so it might get PopOs or something on it soon

If Tony Zaret has taught me anything, everything is bait and I’m triggered

The boss is saying take tour time because the Shrine of Anima is so beautiful and they want you to take it in, not because people think it’s hard

And they boasted about the amazing attention to detail in this game

If you want super light and basic you can go Debian and XFCE. It looks alright in Dark mode but feels like using an old Mac.

Uses less than a gig of ram when you have nothing open though

Bike needs a ‘Latest fad’ asterisk

This is why The Adjuster went for the leg shot first

RSS is great and Google tried to kill it so you’d have to use other services.

I like how I can tell a big event has happened because I see a bunch of articles on it, and that it’s possible to catch up to where you last were in the feed.

That means you’ve caught up on the news, no need to red any more, you can do something else. Algorithms always serve you up new content, so you’re in this constant state of thinking something is always happening.

I think RSS readers would help fix the brains of a lot of boomers if we could ever get them off Facebook

They don’t play those games. They probably don’t even hear about them

I think he was on a much more expensive bike. Easily a high end Trek, or a BMC, S-Works, or a Campagnolo

Think of the traffic in NY. Where would you park? And you’re just going to get in a car to sit in traffic?
