me to download the latest version of firefox is not useful.

You
Nor is telling me to use an alternate browser, because I like my privacy.

Netflix Andrie
That is the only information that we have

You
Also, Firefox is listed as a supported browser

You
on https://help.netflix.com/en/node/30081

Netflix Andrie
As i mentioned earlier we dont have a multitude of options for troubleshooting Linux machines

You
Is that error specific to Linux? What would you do if that error occurred on a Windows machine?

You
and the person was using the latest Firefox?

Netflix Andrie
You are looking at troubleshooting steps for Windows based computers

Netflix Andrie
We dont have steps for linux

You
Okay. I'd suggest raising a suggestion that you should document those procedures, because you're essentially telling me that I'm not valued as a customer because I choose to use Linux.

Netflix Andrie
I did not say that you are not valued

You
And since these pages are Windows specific, this problem would seem to not be specific to Linux

Netflix Andrie
Im just stating that we dont have steps for linux machines

Netflix Andrie
We cannot assume that

You
So I feel like you are using Linux as a get out of jail free card to not actually address the technical problem.

Netflix Andrie
I told you this on the onset

You
Yes, and I didn't accept that as an answer then either.

You
But we don't seem to be making any progress, so I guess this chat has run its course?

Netflix Andrie
Because there is no progress to be made when using Linux machines

You
wow...I have no words.

Netflix Andrie
I already mentioned that we cannot troubleshoot linux

You
So if I click end chat, I'll get a copy of the trannoscript?

Netflix Andrie
After we end the conversation you will be presented with a survey and at the bottom will be an option to save the trannoscript for your reference

You
Okay

Netflix Andrie
Do you have any other questions or clarifications for me?

You
No

ZSH she’ll, where have you been all my life??

Just installed ZSH and configured with Oh My ZSH. What a difference!

I can now easily change the feel of the terminal, and easily access shortcuts I hadn’t even imagined with various plugins.

If you haven’t given it a try, go for it. Huge difference in quality of life!

Offline USB Pendrive for Writing a Book Distribution Recommendations

All I need is the ability to run Libre offline so that I can write without worry. I plan on using a 32 Gig 3.0 USB drive.

I was thinking about using Tiny Core, getting Libre set up, and then making sure it can't log back online. Are there any other distros that might be better recommended?

Grease Monkey uses Linux

Just visited my local Grease Monkey autoshop to get my oil changed. Noticed their whole POS and database system was Linux running LXDE. Looked to maybe be Lubuntu.

Linux is spreading

My dad wanted to reset his windows 7 machine, so we grapped the install disc.

Everything went smoothly until drivers were to be installed, we tinkered for maybe 2 hours until we just gave up.

He asked if I had one of those like windows but not he could try.

We started with ubuntu, no dice, to foreign.

We tried lubuntu, he liked the likeness to windows, but to old school.

We went with kubuntu, the immortal words.

I'm building a custom Kubuntu ISO with Cubic and would like suggestions for software/packages to include.

I'm looking for suggestions about packages I can add to it that would improve overall functionality of the system and/or useful software.

Some of my own examples about what to include are fish, exFAT support, gparted, and git. If there is anything you immediately install frequently on a fresh copy of ubuntu/kubuntu, please post.
