#linux
bye bye
after years I give up - no #debian no #knoppix no #ubuntu (especially not #ubuntu-mate )
it's not that I am not eager to search through sites looking for some helpful advice - and often it has been helpful
but after 2 years of trying to get #cups working I am pissed off
yesterday it worked (by chance) today nothing .... no time to switch through menus after menus to get one page into #print
(by the way the office org /libre office package instructions are as deliriously unhelpful as all the hints I got these last years about printing)
and my time on this planet is getting short ... I put a year ago some shitty comments on this site about these nerds with their wonderful
"constructions" which only make the things more complicated than it should be
internet, print, that's all
so: no consolation or again endless hints of howtos, please ....
welcome NSA

my #question is: I need a cheap laptop whatsoever with #windows where I can connect printer, internet whatever simple things are required
any suggestions where to get it in Germany or Europe ?

I am so fucked up about nowadays #IT ... #nerds ... #linux ... #fairphone
got a pc with #ubuntu-mate ... no way to find drivers for my printer for over 2 years
#ubuntu does not recognize my mobile neither - be it mate or another version
#fairphone not able to upload simply by my mail-site some docs, fotos whatsoever
microphone does not work, 10 different pdf readers via #f-droid do not work
connectiong from the mobile to the pcs transfering fotos from the #camera do not work
(debugging the usb ... nill)
at the #office we are using MSWord like a typewriting machine in the 70s ... tabs ? ... what for...
we use „space“... serial letters ? no idea how that works....
30 years or more we had these ... in German called „Textbausteine“ ... then that got another name and again .... „autotext“ ... no idea how it is called now... we type it in manually or are happy to copy and paste from somewher else
our #SAP - 30 years ago it even made fun in book-keeping dept.... when something had to be updated they programed via #ABAP a job to make it happen
NOW we have to change /update pricing in hundreds - no: thousands of orders MANUALLY

#MS-Office... inintelligible..... #Openoffice as an alternative ? ever tried to understand the help docs ? LOOOOOL
LIFE is not spending the whole time trying to find out the simplest task for a program which just should be running and making life EASIER
instead these autists are sitting in their little rooms developing their gorgeous single-minded #project results just fixated on one tine issue without ever taking into account the whole of the story
a nightmare............
