Just a little hint for your MS Word woes: use Libre Office or Abiword instead if you can, especially since you're using Linux. They both export to either native MS Word format or PDF format. If you need the real deal, you can run MS Word in a browser using Office 365, no Wine required. It's also impressive that you completed a 5 day project in only one.

I do usually use LibreOffice, but, unfortunately, that's not the case here. I have to follow a very specific template that doesn't work anywhere except Microsoft Office. It's probably possible to recreate it, but I don't have enough patience for that.

Darn, that sucks. Sorry.

I updated my site with M O R E B U T T O N S

This is a neat little website. The webcomics are great. I'll be honest in saying that some of them lost me a little on the punchline, but the details on the ones that did get me were great. The "Kid so cool his head's just a mohawk" was my favorite one, especially with the little detail of the floating cigarette.

Hello, just updated my site again. I published an article on why I'm a PC gamer and why I think PC gaming is so great. I also updated my home page with a few extra buttons. Enjoy!

This is a neat little website blog sort of thing! I definitely agree with you on your article of switching to Linux. I use Debian regularly, I switched from Windows a while ago, and I've never truly contemplated installing Windows for long term every day usage. Updates and installing new software are painless processes with apt, my setup only uses 400 mb of RAM on idle, my theming looks zany, etc. Linux is great!

Thanks! The site's simple design comes from my laziness ;). Yes, Debian to me seems to sit in an excellent middle-ground between something totally manual (Slackware or Arch I suppose) and something almost entirely automated (Windows/*buntu/etc). It sure was fun building the system from the ground up like Slackware but with easier tools.

You're doing good work running this site. Keep it up!

. . . Just a little pro tip to continue my last message: if you're buying a computer with less than $200 to spend, buying a used one off of eBay can allow you to get a REALLY nice machine for a low price without having to do all that configuration to get Linux running since it'll come with parts that are dated but decent and common, and as such said parts will have excellent Linux suppport right out of the box.

Thanks for the tip! I would've probably used it if I hadn't already spent $400 on my new PC: https://curbie.kevinson.org/journal/devices/in-use/

Oh, ok. I suppose the silver lining to that is you have a PC with some decent modern components to use instead. Oh well, good day!

This is a really neat little website. I like the big bombastic music you have on the homepage. I also am really impressed by the little section you had of that cheap chinese mini PC you fixed up and got working with a bunch of commands and patches. I feel like I would have neither the patience nor the intellect to figure all that stuff out . . .

Neat little website! Will it ever be anything other than the splash page, though?
