All I see is 5-6 hours of doing things. Good job and be kind to yourself!

Didn’t work. Application doesn’t even need compatibility mode to run. Running the app copied by someone else from their previous Windows 10 computer sorta works but didn’t find files installed to system directories. Windows 11 just deliberately refuses to execute the installer probably based on recognizing the old family of installer programs specifically.

The users wanted a new Linux laptop. I installed LMDE, showed them how to run the installer with wine. It made a menu item. Drag and drop from whatever the cinnamon file manager is doesn’t work, and there was no file association to open the program’s files. I added one that just opens them with wine and lets it figure it out. I also showed them where their wine c drive was.

After a few weeks they wanted to print to pdf as well as their printer from wine and I had them install cups-pdf

Oh, it should work and it will if you put all the files in the right places yourself by say installing it on wine and copying the changes to the wine system directories over, but starting in Windows 11 running the installer gets a deliberate “this program isn’t meant for this version of Windows” error.

Windows 11 won’t install those 25 year old programs anymore. Wine will.

I have a to-do list with just one checkmark on it. The list was made after the thing checked off was done. I then extended the list backwards a month and added another thing checked off to show myself it wasn’t a complete fluke.

Compensation is inversely proportional to productivity.

• Have task to do
• Do the task
• Feel absolutely miserable as soon as it’s done and sob until somebody else comes home

I think you look gorgeous. If I had to describe you in one word from the pictures you’ve posted it would be “important”, like Lieutenant Uhura or Hermione Granger.
