The best way I've heard it explained is that excel is too good at doing too many, but it isn't the correct tool for many of those things. Since it's good and accessible, people make it work and then you get this jumbled mess of stuff after time passes.

I do like the control aspect. I also really enjoy how clean it feels compared to windows.

If it works well (and I mean very well), I will consider doing the same on my main machine. The one the family uses. Maybe just set it up so I boot both windows and Linux... Either way. Very happy with the results so far.

Back to this comment to report that I took the dive. I have a second laptop that wasn't getting used so I wiped it and installed Linux mint. Love it so far and no issues with any of the basics. Took me all of 1 hr to get up and running.

Maybe. I use Settings for quick things like Bluetooth pairing, changing monitor settings, etc. I do use Control Panel a decent amount and would never want it deprecated though.

I am fairly confident that he isn't lucid now.

Dark Souls 1 and it was Chaos Witch Quelaag. I don't know how many times she killed me, but it has to have been over 20. I got destroyed over and over again.

Interesting. I had no idea, thanks for the in depth explanation. So in this case it probably played no or very little role. Things are just often more murky than we make them seem when commenting online is more the general idea I was trying to convey.

How could you know this so definitively?

Yes. Apparently a single senator from the above users comment.

Not like I understand Australian politics but one senator could be an influence.

It's noteworthy that it doesn't appear black canceled the tour just out of nowhere. I think they were getting pressure from the government based on what I've read.

Maybe I'll need to try something with it side by side .

Interesting. I don't know if I'd ever describe the coffee I brew as oily or anything like that. I suppose I have to try this sometime.

So what's the benefit of an aero press over a French press? I've used the French press for years and I always see people loving aero press. I'm curious what the differences are.

It's risk mitigation for the banks. You don't have to put 20% down, but generally you'll have to pay an additional insurance (PMI) if you don't.

I work in analytics. I usually enjoy the work. It's fun showing people insightful things, but it can be a drag when folks don't listen.

Coffee beans are seeds from a fruit.

I have as well. I won't pretend I'm always right - I've thought some ideas that worked out incredibly were horrible. Also had the situation you describe happen. It's okay when you're working with reasonable people. Show them the slide deck, the email, the analysis, whatever... "Look you didn't approve this". "Here is an alternative ". That can work.

Just telling folks "I told you so" isn't usually a great form of communication.

Internally people probably talked about how there were huge issues. Others probably said those issues are over stated and it's no big deal. They decided to release it and the press says there are issues. Then, the company decides there are issues. That simple.
