Might be a too obvious suggestion. But DUSK is one of the best things ever.

The moment when you meet your first wendigoo is peak FPS horror for me.

Programming questions for beginners in c/[email protected]

Thanks for the suggestion. I have been playing around with ChatGPT for a day now. This is a incredible tool. I also realised that a lot of the stuff I was trying to figure out can just be outsourced now.

I'm currently working on learning r programming to use at work. Is there a good place whereI can ask for answers to the issues I'm running into that I cannot find by just searching online.

Logseq question in c/[email protected]

Great. Thanks for the suggestions. I have a work project starting up next week that I want to keep track of with logseq. Hopefully I can make some improvements to the way I normally try to keep up with all the stuff that should be done.

Where to buy music in c/[email protected]

Agreed about the last point. I actually prefer to pay for my media. I like supporting the stuff I like, and I have an acceptable income now so that's not really an excuse any longer.

My reason for occasionally turning to piracy is because the products I'm offered seems to be getting worse, and that's something I cannot accept. Not being able to listen to the music I bought because I moved the files from one device I own to another, or my audiobooks being unavailable because I'm somewhere without internet access and the Audible app not letting me log in. All unacceptable as far as I'm concerned.

And. Tickets and merch is obviously great.

Great. That seems perfect! Time to go spend some money I guess.

Not necessarily piracy, but I realise that it might be the only option.

I'm planning to get away from Spotify. Is there some good places to get music. I don't mind paying for it. But I don't want a subscription service. I just want to be able to give someone money in exchange for a product. And ideally a MP3 or something similar so I can use it offline and move the file between devices.

Does something like that exist somewhere?

And note taking in general I guess.

I have recently started playing around with logseq. It seems interesting, and hopefully it will help me out with some tasks at work and in private. However I have some issues I need feedback on.

  1. How should I turn my notes into a readable report. Currently I'm working on making a list of stuff that's not working in our department at work. So I now have a good list of stuff in #WorkImprovements. But I feel like rearranging some points and edit things a bit. Can this be done easily in logseq? Or is it better to import my notes and write the report in a different program.

  2. A lot of my stuff is currently just rambling thoughts in the daily journal. I just wanted to start writing stuff down to play around with the app. But it seems like it can get a bit overwhelming if I continue with this. How do you deal with old notes from finished tasks. Or just rambling ideas that you have moved on from.

Seems like a great program overall. But I clearly need to improve my note taking habits to make full use of it.

#Edit. The post didn't seem to show up in the thread. Trying a edit instead of reposting to see if that helps.

I'm going to have to talk to IT to see if there is a foolproof way of doing it.

This has to be some of the most common issues with modern workplaces. Getting the old school people to get used to the modern tools. They're both great people. But they would rather work with purely mechanical stuff instead of computers, sadly for them, factories these days require both.

Linux way way slower than Windows? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Some distros have always seemed to perform better than others for me. Ubuntu was always lagging, mint has always performed very well. I never figured out why. But some hopping might be the easiest solution.

There does indeed seem to be a excel equivalent. I forgot to check that before posting the question. I will check with IT if we have excel online available. Thanks.

Great. That might be the best option since they are already somewhat familiar with excel. Thanks for the suggestion.

Tools for collaboration (kbin.social)
 

So I have two coworkers who I want to help out with a problem. They have to collaborate on upgrades in a old factory, and they both use the same excel spreadsheet to keep track of the to-do list.

However. This will routinely cause one of them to lose all their work for the day when the other person forgets to close the spreadsheet after doing something.

They are great people. But computers are not their strength. So just reminding them to never start working before checking if the other person is done will not really work. And I always gets asked to help out since I know the basics of excel at least.

So is there anything that can be used for project management, and that has real time collaboration. And can be learned to two people who dislike computers in general.
