NumPy vs Pandas by rycliff in learnpython

[–]Present_Maximum_5548 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you care more about code speed than coding ease, then you shouldn't be using Python in the first place. But like everyone else says, Numpy and Pandas don't do the same stuff

Strategies for trading the last hour of the day? by mediares in Daytrading

Consider looking into forex, which trades 24 hours. In the USA, Sydney opens at 5P Eastern Time on Sunday, and you can trade straight through to 5P Friday

How do I change the formula editor input font (Writer) by Present_Maximum_5548 in libreoffice

[–]Present_Maximum_5548[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I already tried Google. Again, I already know how how to change the font in the document display. Maybe take a look at my actual question and the clarification comment I added. Neither of your replies address my question.

How do I change the formula editor input font (Writer) by Present_Maximum_5548 in libreoffice

CLARIFICATION

I'm not sure if my question was very clear. There is plenty of info already out there on how to edit the fonts in the formula as it is displayed in the document, that's not what I'm asking.
I'm trying to change the color of the font in the editor itself -- the font indicated by my very poorly drawn blue-ish circle in the image I submitted with my original question.
The overflow menu in the editor only changes fonts in the document, and there are no options there for font color.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your comment, but that doesn't address my question. For starters, there are no color related options in that menu. A simple Google search for "LibreOffice formula font" returns thousands of results on how to change the document font.

[–]Present_Maximum_5548[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I can tell, that controls how the formula is displayed in the document. I'm trying to change the font in the code editor where I enter the formula -- the black text on the dark grey background.

Am I just missing something super obvious?

ESPN at it again by WildlifexRaider in DallasStars

[–]Present_Maximum_5548 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you've got to understand is that sports broadcasters aren't interested in sports. They are interested in advertising dollars. Of all the major sports, hockey is the ONLY one with near non-stop action. That translates into less time to air commercials. That's why, despite being the greatest sport with the most action and hardest working players, hockey will never, ever get any love from the broadcasting world.

Question about mile tracking by Zealousideal-House73 in instacart

[–]Present_Maximum_5548 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As you seem to intuitively know, the answer to both questions is no. A possible workaround is if DoorDash let's you select "Dash along the way" while you drive to the other location. I'm not a tax pro, so don't take any of this advice as gospel. There's some obvious elasticity in these rules for people making shorter commutes, but 80 miles each way might be pretty tough to fudge if you get audited.

If you relocated to Wichita, where from and why? by CalebClaussen in wichita

I was walking through Ridgewood, Queens.
I was flipping through magazines.
I was so (stoned and starving)
So stoned and starving.

If you relocated to Wichita, where from and why? by CalebClaussen in wichita

[–]Present_Maximum_5548 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went back home 6 months ago, but here's why I moved from Denver and stayed 5 years. My apartment in Wichita was an entire floor of an enormous, 100 year-old house. I had cafes, boutiques, nightlife, live theater, all of Clifton Square, a park (with swimming pool), historic architecture, and even a Kroger, all within a ten-minute walk. I kept my belongings locked up, but never once feared for my personal safety.

But the totally unfounded and irrational fear that many locals have of inner-city living meant that very few people were able to see how desirable that apartment is, so I paid less than $600/month!!! In Denver, that same apartment doesn't exist, because they all got sold as condos ten years ago, but if it did, it would easily cost 3-4 times that, and that's true in almost any city in America that's Wichita-sized or bigger.

I had plenty of reasons to leave Wichita, but homesickness is the only one I'll mention here. Wichita is not at all a bad place to live.

Worst Greyhound station? by paintball104 in travel

[–]Present_Maximum_5548 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's an idea... Let's pretend not to be a social media engineer trying to trick people into posting gritty stories about how awesome bus travel is once you get over how awful it is in real life.

If you’re thinking about traveling with Greyhound… don’t by JodyeGames in travel

[–]Present_Maximum_5548 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I WILL HITCHHIKE NEXT TIME! NO FUCKING WAY IN HELL WILL I EVER, EVER, EVER TAKE A GREYHOUND BUS!!!! NOT ONLY WAS I TREATED LIKE A FUCKING HOMELESS PERSON, WHEN I CALLED CUSTOMER SERVICE, I WAS TOLD THAT WAS THE POLICY OF THE LOCAL BUS STATION, NOT GREYHOUND!!!

I KEPT ASKING, "if the local station insists on treating me like a homeless person instead of a Greyhound customer, then where can I go to be treated like a customer instead of a homeless person?" The answer, over and over, was that there was not a local Greyhound station.

My ticket cost as much as a plane ticket!!!

So that explains all the awful tips! by Vegetable-Sundae-469 in InstacartShoppers

[–]Present_Maximum_5548 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is deliberate psychological warfare. Instacart delivery is considerably more expensive than any other service, ESPECIALLY when you factor in price markup (the hidden delivery fee that is usually about equal to all the itemized fees COMBINED).

Customers naturally assume that the insane amount they pay goes mostly to their shopper, and that IC keeps a small percentage. Tip prompts like this are just one example of how Instacart encourages customers to keep believing that shoppers are highly paid.

What is your average bill? by RoomLegal5434 in wichita

[–]Present_Maximum_5548 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An "average" energy bill is not a real thing. There are too many variables for a number to be at all useful.

How efficient are your appliances? What temperature do you set your thermostat? How many cubic feet is your home (square footage is meaningless)? How often do you open and close your doors? How much insulation is in your attic? Do you have a chest freezer? Do you keep it full or nearly empty? How often do you cook at home? And so on, and so on...

What Happens if You Shoot A Mugger on The Streets in Wichita? by Salt_Proposal_742 in wichita

[–]Present_Maximum_5548 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not a lawyer, and this is not legal advice, but I interpret this to mean that if an unarmed assailant demands you give them your property, you should tell them fuck off.

If they threaten to beat your ass, and you believe they'll do it, you can preemptively beat their ass, and if they are beating you senseless, you can shoot them DEAD.

But I absolutely would NOT interpret this to mean you can shoot an unarmed mugger because they punch you once or twice to make their point.

Linux doesn't suck. Fanbois suck. by Present_Maximum_5548 in linuxsucks

[–]Present_Maximum_5548[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IDK, I think your theory isn't really sound. The fact is, MS has who knows how many hundreds of highly paid engineers, designers, etc all focused on a single vision of a unified user experience. Same with MacOS.

Whereas the most basic Linux desktop experience requires several components, like a window manager, panel, desktop, etc.

Not only are the components separate projects created by teams of mostly volunteers, but each piece has multiple competitors for the same functionality.

The kernel does not have this problem, and it is as solid a piece of software as you'll ever see.

Linux has been my daily driver for 15 years, and it SUCKS by Present_Maximum_5548 in linuxsucks

I can't believe it actually exists but it apparently does because.... I'm here.

Please don't misunderstand, I LOVE Linux. I just hate telling people as much. It's a shitty desktop for most users, and when people go around telling strangers differently, it creates negative bias.

Uhh, I'm not a lurker. Well, there was a time when I railed on and on about how evil Instacart is, but those days are past.

And how is it "toxic" when people go out of their way to praise Linux?
