That’s a great question, on the face of it I can’t find very much info online. Wikipedia has an entry for monotype but not hybrid. The page ‘hybrid font’ does not exist. If anyone has more info please feel free to tag me, I’d love to know.
Cool story. None of it mattered here.
Oh yeah it’s so decentralized. No middle men required, oh no sirree.
If you want problems do the exact opposite of this OP. That should solve your lack of problems.
That’s the idea. State actors can keep this up for decades while we the people end up exhausted. Stay vigilant, brother.
Personally I prefer not to be fed by the algorithm. I bookmarked ‘subscriptions’, check for new ones and if there aren’t any I go do something else.
Adobe’s licensing model is also a paper sack of hot liquid shit. If you’re gonna switch to an alternative it might as well work on Linux.
As a sysadmin I would try making the PC’s hypervisors and syncing a VM? Might be over engineered but I think it would work.
That’s all fine and dandy but OP said they’re not very technical. Conceptually Virtualbox is a lot simpler to deal with. There’s a lot of advantages (philosophical and practical) to be had with a KVM or QEMU setup for sure, but if you want a simple to understand click-it-together setup then Virtualbox is better. If OP wants to graduate to a better setup then I hope they go for a good FOSS solution eventually but going straight for the deep end is rarely a good idea if you want people to understand what they’re doing.
That depends, if you’re going to run a barebones W10 install with what amounts to a word processor I think 2GB should be enough. If you can run Chrome you can run a VM. 4GB if you’re feeling generous, that’s a fair compromise as compared to the disadvantages of dual booting.
I don’t think you read past the second sentence of my comment in your rush to tell me I’m wrong. The rest of my comment underlines why the theory is useless. The opening is just defining why they might define a loss of noncompetes as causing irreparable harm.
But the rest of your comment assumes that the employer is correct in stating that the skills of the employee come from the benevolence of the employer, or at the very least you don’t argue against it; you just state that non-competes are unjust in various ways. I’m not rushing to tell you you’re wrong, I think you’re right, that’s why I said I don’t think you’re on the employer’s side. I’m just pointing out an implicit assumption in the steelmanned argument you’re making doesn’t have merit.
Provided your CPU has virtualization features (described here) then the performance overhead for virtualization is negligible. So very probably you’ll be fine.
The latter thing you mentioned would work, but you can set up some shared storage between the VM and your machine. Here is some more info: https://www.makeuseof.com/how-to-create-virtualbox-shared-folder-access/
This describes a Windows host and a Linux VM, I’m sure you’ll be able to figure out the other way around. :)
I have you sign it because if you utilize the skill set I gave you
I’m afraid you’ve been bamboozled. Employers don’t give employees skills, employees bury themselves under mountains of debt to obtain the skills that might land them a job. When they acquire said job they do their best to become a skilled worker in that particular role, often in spite of management’s best efforts to make that difficult. This often translates into non-transferable experience that applies to a particular company or industry.
I’m not saying you’re on the employer’s side here, but I am saying I think you’re under a mistaken impression that will lead you to defend the wrong side.
The upside is you can treat it as just another program with a big flat file that serves as it’s hard disk. You can move a VM between computers, they’re universal. Hell you can move it to a data center and hardly notice a difference. You can make a snapshot, try something out, and if it borks, roll it back to a previous snapshot. You can copy the VM any number of times.
Basically it decouples operating systems from hardware so you can treat a computer like software.
Does that screenwriting software require a lot of performance? You might opt to install Windows into a virtual machine, as described here: https://www.windowscentral.com/how-setup-windows-10-virtual-machine-linux
Essentially you’re using some software to emulate a computer inside your computer that can run any operating system you want. It doesn’t need to touch your actual operating system installation, you can treat it as just another program. For your use case that sounds appropriate; you occasionally need to run specific software that has low system requirements. This way you can do that without risking Microsoft borking your Linux machine any time it feels like it.
Old ThinkPads, the poor man’s Framework.
Agreed, the professor’s mouth and eyebrow should be flipped around.
