that dell usb-c -> hdmi/vga/ethernet/usb3 dongle you can buy with the xps (DA200) just got a fix for vga/hdmi out on linux! so now you can actually use it with resolutions larger than 720p. this was the last linux quirk that i knew about on the 9550 (although this issue was a generic problem with the chip used in the dongle)

lol opened libreoffice for the first time in ages today to see how things have progressed

writer still doesn't have a mechanism for moving a table

it can create them, but literally can't move them

the official workaround is to save the document, close writer, open the doc in microsoft word, move the table, save again, close word, and reopen it in writer

I first ran into this in 2007 and it still hasn't been fixed

libre sucks

Cut and paste works
