Copy-pasting...anyone tried Windows + v you can setup a copy and paste history in there in Windows. Works wonderfully until it doesn't. You know typical Windows

Data Entry battle scars (a follow up to Richard's Big Coding Challenge post)I have been preaching this exact same thing for 30+ years. IF you want something to work better. Force the programmers/tech people to actually do the job. Interestingly enough. The CEO or a local very large Grocery store got vilified for forcing his IT staff to do that exact same thing a few years ago. But it was the right idea! Make them use what they produce. They will then go make it better.

KnotsThis be me. I can tie a bowline without looking at it. That along with a taught line hitch, Trumpet knot and your standard square knot. There really isn't anything I can't tie up/do with rope. The bowline is about the most versatile though.

For those of you dealing with dementia issues with parents...Sorry, Watching my wife go thru this with her dad has sucked for the last year. He sometimes knows things and other times wants to divorce his wife (who has been gone for years), because she hasn't come to visit him. It absolutely sucks.

I've Decided...Javascript has always been described as such. I frequently feel that same way. 9 years give or take til retirement. Met with financial guy a week or so ago. He says that if we downsized the house could probably retire now. DW says nope. Don't blame her. I would miss the bar in the basement. But if I retired I might not need the bar in the basement. LOL

so back to the Linux discussion.for Teams, I did mean the flatpak version. Sorry wasn't clear on that. For some reason LibreOffice doesn't work well with alot of what we do here. I have found that WPS works amazingly well. But it doesn't work with my old LibreOffice files. So I end up using both. MasterPDF never heard of it before. But I must say after checking it out. Very nice. Not sure I want to buy it yet. But certainly going on the list.

so back to the Linux discussion.I use Linux almost exclusive except when I can't. And then I just Remmina(RDP) into whatever I need to do or spin up a VM. So today I got a new lappy and immediately put a flavor of Linux Debian on it. So far on my default I have the following installed. What would you add to yours. Curious to see the answers. Joplin Notes Brave Web Browser - Personal Stuff only Firefox - Work related only Remmina for RDP to Windows Servers Microsoft Teams client (I know but I must) notepadqq cisco anyconnect - which was a pain to get working. WPS 2019 Office for dealing with Microsoft Business Central Config Packages. Works wonderfully vsCode Android Studio

From the CP newsletterthat was hmmmm interesting. I couldn't help but feel sorry for the backup singers in red and what that probably did to their collective careers. They had to be trying to hide this video.
