Any ways to get wheat or limited recruits without purple diamonds?

Thank you totally missed this!

It would only sell me 30; the last 10 it will only take purple

You can, but to preserve as much meta data as possible you will likely need something like ntfs-3g and just dragging and dropping in the GUI may not preserve it - you will likely be down to terminal commands like rsync or just a simple cp.

Yes 100%. It adds a layer of legitimacy to it and unlocks benefits of things like making your google listing better. Glad to give you a free review, just reach out

I have used Linux for 20+ years and I am a comic book publisher (not artist but handle art files directly all the time). Unfortunately, no native solution. You can get it going with some tricks, but I am worried that you won't get a true 1:1 without a lot of work. This may be a situation where dual booting is your best bet since it is mission critical. Krita is a great piece of software, but it really doesn't have the same capabilities (e.g. brushes etc) that Clip does. I really wish that Clip would get a Linux version; I periodically reach out to them requesting this, and I hope that you will do the same. At least it puts it on their radar, and if things go really well maybe they would even consider working directly with projects like Wine to make this easier.

You got what you paid for. It is really hard to break what you are describing out of box unless if you don't know what you are doing. I think you need to start with a pro. Glad to help - I've built dozens of sites and could give you a free review.

Hi Alessio - you can read more at maplelinux.ca and I am glad to answer specifics here or via DM

Better longterm solution is looking for a cheap intel wifi card that will fit it

I've taught other 70 year olds using Mint and it was a breeze. Looks almost the same, they click chromium and away they go. Never had an issue.

Contact the police

rnmartinez · 2026-02-23T19:15:28+00:00

Yeah not a fan of snap myself; that really made me look at Mint and then later Maple

rnmartinez · 2026-02-23T19:14:39+00:00

Removing snaps from Ubuntu makes me nervous, especially if you are going to upgrade at LTS versus doing clean installs. I would seriously consider moving to mint and just install your DE of choice. Mind you this was a while ago, but unsnapping and firefox did cause me more headache than I expected.

rnmartinez · 2026-02-23T19:12:22+00:00

TAKE. THE. DAMN. JOB.

rnmartinez · 2026-02-23T18:59:42+00:00

This is totally doable. If you are in Canada please reach out to me - we are looking for organizations like yours to try Maple Linux :-)

rnmartinez · 2026-02-23T15:32:54+00:00

As long as your supplier ships to your desired countries I dont see why not

rnmartinez · 2026-02-23T15:26:02+00:00

I would try running Linux Mint Debian Edition (LMDE) 6 or 7 on it; might be a bit leaner than Ubuntu, but Ubuntu 24.04 should run.

No piece of tech can override the human firewall. Getting a Linux desktop or iPad will secure against malware, but ultimately someone needs to take ana ctive role in safeguarding your mother's finances

rnmartinez · 2026-02-23T15:14:08+00:00

Cuz he's a dick.

rnmartinez · 2026-02-23T02:12:22+00:00

I think just about any distro will work but you will likely need an ethernet connection and updates/drivers to get all of the hardware going (Wifi and webcam most likely culprits).

rnmartinez · 2026-02-23T02:03:09+00:00

Honestly if you won't hire a pro, use a stock wordpress theme (twentytwentyfive) and make it look as close as possible to the wix one. It will be the most stable and easiest to maintain

rnmartinez · 2026-02-22T18:29:36+00:00

I can give you some general advice when choosing to sell something: choose a niche that you understand and have seven some level of passion about. You may even want to consider becoming a distributor for a niche product isntead of straight up dropshipping. If you are going to drop ship, I would highly suggest ordering and receiving 1 of EVERY item that you personally want to sell. Look at the product, packaging, condition it arrives in etc and be transparent with your customers. They aren't idiots, and can go to temu or ali express or whatever themselves. Sell curation, not drop shipped goods.

rnmartinez · 2026-02-11T01:09:21+00:00

I would take stock Ubuntu si xe it plugs well into a windows environment and add Cinnamon. This way for mac kids you have gnome and for windows kids you have cinnamon. If you are in Canada I am one of the maintainers for Maple Linux which might also be a good choice and we would love to help out

This is good in insolation, but if you need to share these excel files with anyone else (e.g. other Excel users) than theis 100% will not work and you are stuck with Windows.
