Yeah < thought so, don't worry. :)

Also, < hopes ^ gets the issue with not having proof fixed, < didn't think it would be that, but yeah that's a pretty big deal.

< thanks ^, < will need to get <'s stomach issues sorted out first, but < just has to wait a little longer for an appointment due to COVID. :mefiant:

< looks forward to it though!

< also wishes Steo luck with finding a course that won't bore him to tears. Sometimes it can be good to go back through the basics though.

< suddenly can't see any icons on the forum. :mefiant: < just had to use the tooltip to verify that < was pressing the quote button and not the delete button or something worse!

< will also say well done to Fifo for reaching 9k!

< knows it's likely that the first ones < will need to do are likely going to be simplistic and boring, but < would have to start there before < can get into something more interesting.

EDIT: < will likely have to start with something like ECDL.

Oh God, ECDL… < feels for you in that case. :( < did that back in Transition Year and was mostly amused by the Microsoft-centricity of it, and the fact that the interfaces we were learning to use would likely change again very soon. There was even a bit where we learned what a EULA was. :P

< decided to look into ECDL, and it seems to be all related to MS Office stuff. < definitely isn't going to find this fun. :roll:

< plans to get into it asap, but the issue is that < has to start with a very simple one to have qualifications for one that < is interested in. < assumes those basic ones might even be available online, especially with COVID going on.

< probably can, ECDL seems to be a short part time one, so < assumes they probably do a few of them per year. < will look into it.

< is delighted that Rayman Legends now works with Proton! :D Valve seem to have figured out how to get Uplay talking to the native Steam underlying Proton, instead of trying to install Windows Steam inside the prefix!

< doesn't recall ever having issues with Legends, unless they fixed it a long time ago. < does recall uplay being weird though and < had to disable the overlay, otherwise the prompt about bringing up the overlay would just remain on screen.

< can't remember the last time < tried running it under Proton, but it was a very long time ago, probably even before they killed the online features.

< definitely tried it again after that, and Proton has had many fixes, so that's probably why then.

< is going to try out Crash Bandicoot 4.

< watched Inside Out on the telly this evening. < really loves that film. It only came out five years ago, but somehow it makes < feel very nostalgic.

Wise words, most definitely. < really needs to keep using up with <‘s skills and remember terminology for the day that < gets <‘s next job opportunity. < is still bad with interviewing and isn’t very good with resume building/fixing so < should start going back to that career center if it’s open...
