His “We” aren’t even watching, they’re sunbathing off the coast of Cancun

The whole point of neon is to showcase the DE, they say as much on the website. Unless you’re super passionate about KDE Development, it’s probably not going to be for you

Either Debian or Fedora + flatpak & KDE. I’m familiar with both and they just work for me. Distrohopping and messing around with my computer feels like a chore more than anything else these days.

Libreoffice will likely still work fine for you, especially now that you’ve got autosave turned on. Heck, I have faculty that refuse to use anything other than LibreOffice, so I have it installed in our computer labs. As long as you’re saving and backing up reasonably often, you should be good to go. Though your school likely has a cloud suite that you could use too. Office365 and Google Workspaces are by far the most popular. It would be integrated with your daughter’s student email which I can’t imagine a modern school not having. If you’re not sure, contact the school and they’d be able to help you.

I’m sorry your kid lost her paper! It’s always a bummer to take a call and it’s a kid crying because their paper went up in smoke. If you haven’t already, contact the teacher and let them know what happened. IME most teachers are reasonable and as long as “office ate my homework” isn’t your go-to excuse, they’ll give you an extension.

I support Office365 in an education environment and you wouldn’t believe the number of documents lost to autosave. Autosave and document recovery are definitely nice and useful to have, but they’re not infallible. Shit happens and when it does, it’s when you’re finishing up your midterm the night before it’s due.

You need to save, and save often. And if the project you’re working on is “super important it’s 50% of my grade” make backups. Even just saving a copy to a flash drive is better than nothing.

IDK about other places, but the document we make our users sign make it clear that modifying the internal hardware is a fireable offense.

The laptop isn’t yours, use a personal device for personal stuff, and work device for work only.

I don’t like the insinuation that because gnome devs are volunteers they are somehow beyond criticism

You can volunteer on a project and still do a bad job, or need corrective action, or maybe even a little feedback. That’s not a bad thing. Nobody can make the right decision 100% of the time, and you need an outside perspective to see that.

One thing where you should draw the line is when that criticism starts to become abusive, but that’s something nobody should have to put up with, not just volunteers.

ha ha yup. Plus i don’t think you can clear the screen from within diskpart. You need to exit before you can use regular commands again.
