Zorin OS is the way to go if you are sticking with the Debian/Ubuntu family. It’s basically the Mac OS of Linux distributions, by shipping with a level of polish that other distributions don’t deliver. To me this means I did zero tinkering out of the box to have the experience I wanted after spending a day configuring KDE in other distributions any time I did a reinstall. As far as printers go, they have always been hit or miss, but my problems were solved by disabling IPv6 on my local network.

Once a year with amsoil or the like. Cars average 5k to 10k miles a year.

Lol I didn’t even see that, thanks auto suggestion!

12 or 13 years? Don’t really remember or care!

How has A Plague Tail not been mentioned? Most of these mentioned a good games with a sad scene or two thrown in. Plague Tail, especially the sequel will make a grown man ugly cry.

With that budget, consider taking a look at Peak Design’s Everyday Backpack. It’s a different style than you’re used to, but it hits all the boxes, and looks sharp. They
excell at better organization. But because they are slightly rigid, textbooks might weigh a bit weird if you have too many.

We have an everyday V2, totepack and two 30L travel packs, all highly recommend.

Organizr might be the closest thing you’re looking for

Scrolled through the comments, how has no one not mentioned A Plague Tail? Amazing story from a woman’s perspective

Because you spent $5 a month instead of $50 on cartridges of ink that will dry up in 3 months if they don’t get used. If you need an ink tank, then you aren’t worried about photo quality, in which case a laser is better.

If you understand that it’s basically a Netflix subscription for ink, it works great, especially if you print photos it can save a lot of money. If you print a few things a month and suddenly go to 400 pages, you might run out of ink before the next set arrives.

When you anticipate running out soon, you have to give CS a call and ask them to send the next set of cartridges sooner than later.

Still, anything is better than paying full retail for refills at Cartridge World.

While I haven’t tried symphony, my annoyance with PHP in general is that parsing any kind of data is tacky. In the end you end you have just as many lines as python but less readable.

Cleaner functions or cleaner data? Both languages have their strengths and can (now) be typed.
