Well. I, for one, need this thread. It is therapeutic (I had to look up how to spell that BTW…which is a great thing since it means I don’t often use that word…unlike…virile or handsome…which I know how to spell perfectly…).
Not a question, but an observation…
I have to copy files from a left window pane to the right. I must. Or I get confused. So do people that live in the UK have to drag from right to left? And…do Aussies drag from bottom to top?
Important things to be learned here I feel.
Second bottle of Malbec questions. Undoubtedly. Mixed liberally with procrastination.
Sigh.
Regardless…welcome to the 2021 Dumb Questions Thread…
For IT people it can be a different game entirely, as we’d think more in terms of source and destination or perhaps active and backup.
So for me, the main monitor is on the left. Secondary monitor has to go on the right, as I stack shortcuts on the left and therefore won’t accidentally hit them crossing screens.
Following that, backups are always displayed on the right screen and active data sets on the left.
I think IT people would make more money.
While a GUI may prevent catastrophic errors, such as deleting the system files because Windows Explorer says they are in use (by the system) - just remember Linux has chmod 777 and the equally infamous rm -rf /, and Windows’ CMD and Powershell could have equally disastrous commands (I haven’t looked for any). We have enough fun with users with restricted access GUI’s!
The children, or the inactive account deletion tool that was set too aggressively and deletes your wedding photos while you are on vacation!
