Second this, just get some thumbstick covers. I have the 8bitdo pro, and I'm getting tired of the joysticks peeling off onto the rest of the controller after a game.

I haven't had drift on them yet, but if/when I need to replace Old Reliable, I'm looking for hall effect joysticks.

Edit: damn, just found out the pro2 has hall effect joysticks

Which one(s) have you got? Do you like them?

YNAB trata las transacciones con tarjeta de crédito de manera que, idealmente, no gastes más de lo que tienes en tu presupuesto. Si realizas una transacción con tarjeta de crédito en una categoría que presupuestaste, YNAB calcula automáticamente cuánto puedes pagar del saldo de tu tarjeta de crédito. Si gastas de más un mes, entonces el mes siguiente puedes agregar manualmente a esa categoría de "pago con tarjeta de crédito".
Creo que el pago diferido es lo mismo que no pagar el saldo del mes, y no debería ser más complicado que presupuestar manualmente para pagar más el mes siguiente.
¿Cómo preferirías que se traten las tarjetas de crédito en tu aplicación de presupuesto? ¿Qué problemas tuviste?
Perdón por cualquier error, usé una aplicación traductora :x

YNAB treats credit card transactions so that, ideally, you're not spending more than you have in your budget. If you make a credit card transaction in a category you budgeted for, YNAB automatically tallies up how much you can pay off your credit card balance. If you overspend one month, then the next month, you can manually add to that "credit card payment" category.
I'm thinking deferred payment is just the same as not paying the balance for the month, and it shouldn't get more complicated than manually budgeting to pay off more of it the next month?
How would you rather credit cards be treated in your budgeting app? What issues were you having? Forgive me for any errors, I used a translator app :x

Translating:

Well, I tried this month @ynab (in the absence of an official account around here), and I honestly found the way around it, but I feel like it's not for me. I don't really like how almost all the finance apps handle credit card expenses. The apps are few, but they don't manage to capture issues like deferred payments. And that's where they lose me.

I love websites designed like Hypnospace and LingsCars

Mieruko-Chan, or Girl who can see it

It's a comedy/slice of life (imo) with horror aspects. A girl is suddenly able to see spirits/ghosts one day, and tries her best to pretend she doesn't see them. I love it because each arc and Mieruko's intentions are so wholesome & end in building way more on spirits' rules and lore. The first few chapters do play on echi themes, but the author finds his footing for a plot once the first antagonist appears. Antagonist is not the right word, but I don't want to spoil character development details much. :x

I can see future archeologists (god forbid, Ai archeologists) digging up old posts like this and going, "tf, this was upvoted? Interjecting with too much tangential information? The tone came off rude though?" and not get the reference if they weren't versed in linux community culture already

Yes to all. Just want to know what I can use the side crank for?

Samesies. I had a huge nexus 6p back in the day, and I miss scrolling by swiping the rear fingerprint sensor.

TLDR, scroll down to the script. Make a .sh file, allow it to run as a program, set it as your default program to open whatever filetype

Navigate to the appropriate/your favorite folder to store portable applications. Make the below script as a new file called WhateverYouWant.sh
Fellow newbies, the .sh is important.
Then set this .sh file's permissions to allow executing this file as a Program; may differ by distro.

#!/bin/bash

# Script to set a windows application (that runs through WINE) as the default to open PDF files:

# PURPOSE: To convert Linux-style filename to Windows-style
# to pass as an argument to wine when starting PDF XChange Viewer
Filename="z:"${1//\//\\}

# Assuming you use the default installation folder for PDF
# XChange Viewer in Wine
App='eval wine "C:\Program Files\Filepath\To\Your\PDFXEdit.exe" "'$Filename'"'
$App

You can also check the appropriate windows-formatted filepath with Winetricks, using its built in windows File Explorer, finding your .exe, and copying the path starting from "C:".
[Edit: the default install folder in the script would normally be C:\Program Files, my bad. I downloaded the portable version and shoved it wherever, so my filepath looks like "C:\users\Froggy\Documents\PDFXchange test01\PDFXEdit.exe"]

Mint Cinnamon 21:

  • right click your shell script file, Properties > Permissions > check on "Allow executing file as program".
  • Then find a PDF file (or whatever filetype), right click, Open With > 'Other Application...' > browse for this .sh file you just made.
  • After selecting this .sh file, be sure to select "Set as default" before clicking OK.

I could not tell you for the life of me why this didn't work with a .desktop file on Mint 21.

I spent the past few hours down the wrong rabbit holes with .desktop and exec=wine 'filepaths' and just about died of asphyxiation from absolutely nothing happening. I've been wanting to do the same thing too for a while, but decided that right before bedtime was the perfect time to look it up.
[Edit: I figured out spacing in the script. Also moved the Mint specific instructions down the comment for flow clarity]

"I never learned or thought about how long my trash will actually insist on existing and polluting my environment. I'm completely ignorant of how incredibly slowly plastic decomposes and how toxic it is for plastic to leach into the lowest parts of the food chain and concentrate on its way up."

"AFAIK, because the earth will take care of it somehow - everything turns into dirt when you leave it in the dirt long enough, right?"

"I'm just sooo ignorant, plastic will just break back up into little plastic fibers and the ocean can recycle it for us, like tree bark or w/e, right?"

That's my best, but still invalid, justification. What do I win

spoiler/sarcasm (I hope this spoiler works bc it's not working on boost)

 

If I'm an adult who wants to experience splashing around and wading round the pool, but whose swimming capabilities extend as far as doggy paddling to safety and floating on my back - what can I even do to have fun at the pool?

What do you do at the pool?

Bonus round: kind of out of my budget to pay for swimming classes, and available friends & family are nil. :c
But I borrowed a life jacket from a coworker, and could buy cheap floaties or a pool noodle.

 

SOLVED, with a huge thank you to [email protected]

Hiyo Librecalc pros. Hoping someone has an idea how to automate or minimize the steps for this. Or where should I start? I'm trying to automate transcribing a list from:
Closet_01
Cartridge123
Cartridge234
Garagenook_01
Cartridge456
Toolbox567
Toolbox789
Garagenook_02
Cartridge890

Into an array/table like:
Cartridge123, Closet_01
Cartridge234, Closet_01
Cartridge456, Garagenook_01
Toolbox567, Garagenook_01
Toolbox789, Garagenook_01
Cartridge890, Garagenook_02

I get it; I should just carry around a barcode list of all my shelf names and take turns between scanning the list, tabbing over on my phone, scanning a box, then tabbing back again. But... what if I want to be lazier and just scan things in an order and automate the rest later?

Is there a faster way than copy-pasting my way down?

I got as far as making an adjacent column with a formula to check for "_", then copying the location if "_" was found.

 

Short term: I'm trying to automate transcribing a list from:
A
123
234
B
456
567
789
C
345

Into an array/table
123, A
234, A
456, B
567, B
789, B
345, C

Long term answer I'm looking for: where's a lemmy community I can ask questions like this (like about using formulas in Librecalc/Onlyoffice suite/maybe VBA with them too) in the future?

Or, if not yet established on lemmy, recommended librecalc/Onlyoffice forums?

Thank you for your time.
