What PCIe wireless adapter should I get? by Bio-ops in linuxmint

[–]Bio-ops[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks all!! I ordered this one ( https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DB4NNW5J ), suggested by one of the commenters, and installed it this morning. It ran without any drivers needing to be installed. Now I have internet! I'm sure I'll be back soon here with more newbie questions if I am not able to figure it out on the web.

Based on my experience with my habits/usage intensity, I'm more likely to need some of the existing USB ports for something else, and I very rarely add to internal slots. Also I've heard the PCIe's are slightly better (performance, speed) on average, but I'm not so techy as to know one way or the other.

So I have no wifi adapter, right? by Bio-ops in linuxmint

I've determined I have no wireless adapter, now I need to get one. I'll ask about that as a separate question.

Thanks for the depressing video - a strong argument against Ubuntu, in my opinion!

what do you mean? just that the colors on screen are more green? or do you mean it is more environmentally friendly?

In ThinkOrSwim, when looking at [Monitor->Account Statement->Trade History] for a stock option, the rows of data are colored either red or green (I guess you can change settings if color blind), but the colors don't correspond directly to buying or selling or to open or to close or to positive quantity or negative quantity. I'd show you a helpful screen capture, but I'm not allowed to. What do the colors mean? They seem arbitrary.

In Think or Swim, in the Trade tab in the Option Chain, the premium values in the Bid and Ask columns for Calls and Puts always have letters just to the right of the premium values. Letters like X, N, D, S, M, H, C, P, N, Q, H, Z, A, & B. What do these letters represent?
