'If God isn't real, why do you say oh my God?'

That was from the deputy head of my school...

They don't shove them to the side, they put the new kidney in the front 👍

Yes.

You're lucky that you live close enough, or that you're not popping in on your dinner break, or on your way between jobs, and don't have time to nip home to pick up your ID.

Your lucky that you're not elderly or disabled and struggling to get to the polling station at all, never mind having the opportunity to get there and back easily.

Put 50p on the table in front of him, put your hand gently on his shoulder, and with the most sympathetic expression you can manage, say 'This is towards the cost of some headphones. I hope your situation improves soon.'

I'll second Mint. It's got a similar layout to Windows, so eases you in, and everything just works.

Rhythm's not a vowelless word.

Rhythm is a dancer.

EDIT: Sorry, I was tired when I posted this, and didn't realise that it made no sense to anyone else. I've got a set of panniers for the bike that attach under the seat, and they hold the smaller things, like my clothes and toiletries.

I remembered after I'd already attached my camping equipment to the top of the seat, meaning that it would have to be removed to fit the other luggage.

I run Mylar on my Xubuntu server to manage my comic collection. I found out recently that there's a tool that can convert the embedded .jpgs to .webp to save space, but it only works on cbz files and not cbr (zipped vs rar for those who don't know). I wanted to convert all of my cbr to cbz so that I could run the tool on all my comics, so I needed to search hundreds of subdirectories for them and move them to the same folder to be processed.

Under Windows, I'd just type *.cbr into the search bar built into Explorer from the root comic directory, hit enter to get a list of files, select them all, and move them to the new folder. On Xubuntu, it's nothing like as simple.

I found the search option in Thunar which opened Catfish, typed in *.cbr, and got a no files found message. After looking through the very limited options, I started searching for a way to do it. About thirty minutes later I'd found dozens of links telling me to use different, Terminal only, tools, but nothing about how to search subdirectories from the Catfish GUI. Purely by accident, I found a post from 2012 that mentioned the fact that Catfish doesn't use wildcards, so just search with .cbr, something that's not mentioned in the official docs.

I tried it, and it searched the subdirectories too, and found my files! Except there was no way to copy or cut and paste, just open, show in file manager, copy location, save as, or delete. No good options for almost 500 files across several dozen locations.

I ended up asking Chat GPT how to do it, and doing it through the Terminal, using this:

'find . -type f -name "*.cbr" -exec mv {} /path/to/destination ;'

This is pretty basic functionality, and I had to resort to getting help to use the Terminal :(

Nobody started bullshitting you, and everyone knew that you were using Linux. You started a post asking how to run repacks from Fit Girl on Linux, and when you were given an answer, you told the other person that they were wrong. The next comment explained in detail how to do it, including setting up winetricks, but you didn't respond to that.

There's nothing wrong with not knowing how to do something, or with asking for help, but don't accuse people of bullshitting you and not helping just because you don't understand the answer.
