Adobe still has lifetime purchases?

Tell that to corporate

Was it working fine before? I’ve been using Bluetooth headphones and wireless mouse on popos for a few months now and only had an issue on a machine yesterday. I think it was because I was swapping the drive with the os on the several different motherboards to test different cpus

I think that’s what popos comes with, never looked into what the differences are between them or why one would want to switch

For email and calendar I’D probably look into proton. For other software tools i would start with services people like that you don’t have to manage other than be like the admin and as you go try and find alternatives and self host your own and teat it out. Maybe even something like digital ocean where you can just spin up a droplet that’s presetup for you and learn more and more until you’re comfortable to transition other people to it

I was just thinking about my free oracle server if it would be good for my own lemmy instance?

Have you checked out grav https://learn.getgrav.org/17/basics/what-is-grav

https://github.com/getgrav/grav

I use it just to make simple markdown sites for info like my gaming servers or if I feel like making a random blog post

I setup nextcloud and just use that to backup my Obsidian notes. But I also use next cloud deck depending on the type of notes or list I’m making

I’ve been using it for almost a year now and it works great. I used to just use a spread sheet to track my bills paychecks and due dates but this made it much nicer

I think a lot of people have switched to Linux and realized it was just a lot better, myself included. It took me a bit to let the differences soak in, just like when I got my first smart phone but after a bit of using it and trying things out you realize you should have done it a long time ago

Ok yeah after running more tests from the site I did see mine show up on some of them but I’ve only been able to compare to other recent results. I haven’t seen anyway to filter the results by cpu or gpu without it sending me to Google search which doesn’t help.

Haha I assumed we had like a corporate IT that was just always there approving and denying requests. Until one time I had requested a photo editing app and weeks later I got an email from my local IT guy saying it wasn’t going to be approved. I was shocked he responded and shocked that he was the dude that was getting all my angry requests all along lol. I couldn’t even install our own companies software to test our products it’s insane

Lidarr might help, like other said you need to start by organizing your library first then look at hosting.

For us you get a popup that sends a ticket to IT and you have to fill out a reason why you need to do whatever it is you are trying to do. Then you wait like 10 minutes and try again to see if it was approved. If it asks for permission again then you need to assume they rejected it

I always assumed it said chrome but was just a virus so I was always super paranoid when installing things

No idea haha, I know on the old model it had a sensor for each finger so it went by taps but the newer one says you can do it on any surface so no clue

Yeah in order to get out of my contract after they restarted it without telling me then trying to charge me to get out I had to complain to the BBB and finally they retracted the charge. But it was what I learned how to edit photos on and had my whole photo library in light room so I held me back from switching to Linux before. I started trying to find an alternative before wiping my windows drive in case I wanted to edit something real quick and needed lightroom. It’s good to have that buffer so you don’t switch and are learning everything all at once while feeling frustrated because you just want to do one thing

That’s good

I was in the same boat as you but I just kept using Linux more and more. I left my Adobe subscription with a bit of time left because I wanted to get better with darktable before the time ran out in case I needed Adobe but I ended up not

Neat
