Oh, is that the issue? Using a different dongle than the one it came with? That would explain why mine was just plug and play.
And if all else fails, my mouse also has bluetooth.

Skill issue. My bluetooth stuff just works.

Well, but you could update windows, then reboot but boot into linux. That means the windows update can’t fully complete yet. Now if you start up your PC the next day and it boots into Windows by default, the update process will continue.

Furries?

Just enable zram. It’s super easy to set up too.

IntelliJ? That’s on you for using Java

Had zero issue with the flatpak.

Still don’t get what it does, but at least you made it abundantly clear that I don’t want to know more. Thanks!

Sounds like a skill issue on your end

Windows is such a pain to install though. It won’t work with some of the tools used to make a bootable usb stick. It takes forever to install and then you still have to set up a bunch of drivers. And then you have to install a ton of software by hunting for exe files online. Not to mention the dance you need to do to even be allowed to install it offline, without using a Microsoft account.

But working code can be made into numbers.

Inkscape’s UX is horrendous. Looks alright, but it’s unusable garbage.

Burn the heretics!

My wired mouse’s lights reset when I roll my chair just a few centimeters on the carpet. I believe your coworker.

Best to keep windows on a separate drive if you can.

KDE Plasma user I am

No need to convince me it’s shit. Also how do you end up only knowing Javascript? Who the hell starts out using Javascript of all the languages?

Until everyone moves over to the next thing and you start from 0 again. Web dev is a nightmare.

I only know a single place with exactly two of them. The nearest Ikea. Other than those two it’s human cashiers everywhere.
