I've been using Debian (dualbooted with Win10 ofc) for months. What other distros do you suggest that could possibly be better?

I don't even like Debian but it's still far better than the other shit you have on that disk. Get rid of that first
can I somehow change these icons? how?

klick right on the icon, then again on the icon and select properties, and then you can change it.

You also need a .ico file. You can convert .jpeg into .ico in gimp.

I would do it. I want to do it.
But then you think you can't use whatsapp or other things and it stops me.
Do you know how I can install whatsapp in my pc without having that QR code?? Because my phone doesn't read those codes.

With the eventual goal in mind of upgrading my gpus, I have xfired 480s. Pic somewhat related.
Does it make sense to jump ship and get 1080 ti separately for the consistency in the mean time?
Or should i stop being a retard and use the parts i have with 1080p forever?

1080p for now. Maybe 1440p later. 2 480s is more than enough for that, I'm sure.

Thank you. Couldn't find a stupid question thread. cheers

>>60029369
Sell your 480 and buy a 1080Ti instead. Dual GPU is a meme.

Automating/Eliminating Jobs within my Company?

Hi /g/, I work at a relatively small business that does environmental analysis of soil, air, and water samples using various instruments that output various analytical results. As you can guess, we deal with a modest amount of data: client sample names, our own IDs generated for each sample, and the results of certain analyses on certain samples.
Unfortunately, this data is managed using a combination of hand-written documents (which are scanned for archiving) and Excel (mainly for reporting analytical results to clients). We do not use any sort of laboratory information management system (and I'm not sure we can even afford it). So there's a lot of printing out of PDFs, highlighting, then data-entry into Excel spreadsheets.
There is little to no automation of this reporting process, even though this is the core of our business. I'd like to take it upon myself to try to automate some or all of this reporting process, but there is a major roadblock. Three employees within this company make decent annual salaries doing data entry and making these reports. How do I broach this subject with my supervisor (one of the people who does reports) without making it seem like I'm threatening his livelihood?
tl;dr has anybody ever tried to automate jobs within their companies, and have you hit any roadblocks/upset anybody? Any tips or advice on how to approach this diplomatically?

You'll have to wait until you can afford the laboratory information management system. The amount of work that goes into creating something like that is crazy, and if it's even remotely in the minds of your managers, creating a system that competes with an industry standard at a company that's focused on doing something that uses that kind of technology instead of making that kind of technology is a fool's errand. If you succeed, you'll never be able to swap out to the industry standard and now the company has to be a software development company on top of whatever it is you do. If you fail, you've failed and the company has lost money.

>>60028417
Sorry, I should've clarified that I don't want to create something on par with LIMS. It's just that for most, if not all, of the instruments, there seems to be a quick and dirty way to generate reports. I don't want to go the whole nine yards and bring them into the modern era of data management with databases of sample info, but I would like to expedite the reporting process.
One of the instruments outputs the analytical results to an .mdb file, for example. I was thinking instead of having the lab software generate a PDF, which is then printed and then the results input into Excel by hand, there would be some way to extract the relevant info from the .mdb file into Excel (haven't looked into Access or how to use the Excel API yet, though).
If that's not possible, then yeah, I'm shit out of luck.
