I switched my NVIDIA card for an AMD card in my desktop computer running Ubuntu. I think maybe that wasn't a great move, the NVIDIA drivers may be proprietary, but they also seem more stable. An update to a 5.7 Linux kernel took care of the worst of my problems though.

I have to work on my touchscreen issue again. When I purchased this HP All-in-one Windows machine it was touch screen and I got used to it very quickly. Then a while back it stopped working. Completely, as in it doesn't even show it was ever an option in the device manager. I worked on it hard months ago and got nowhere. I miss it. Oh well, summer project. It's out of warranty at this point but I may get frustrated enough to pay for support!

eta: I fixed it! I hadn't messed with it in months, but this time it actually works again. My screen is going to be filled with finger prints now. Whee!

OK, possibly a dumb question, but when I'm on Tumblr, I find a lot of the pictures get really narrow, to the point I can't see what they are. Not a big deal, but it's annoying.

Also - why is it that when I go on my office's database to export information, it defaults to PDF ... which for my purposes is useless. I always have to change the information - mailing lists of email addresses - to something usable in Excel. Again, not that big a deal, but it's annoying.

Does anyone know why yahoo won't open excel attachments anymore? Is NoScript acting like an overprotective parent again? (Not urgent, as I do have another mailbox, but it opened them before, and by "before", I mean last week, so that's kind of freaking me out, and I couldn't do a work assignment over it.

Sometimes I hate CSS

Ooh I love CSS. But then I never have to do much with it.

I spent an hour and a half today fiddling with CSS for my CS class course notes. It's got a solarized color palette and code blocks with box shadows now, heh.

Can anyone help with an iPhone? I needed to get an iPhone for work, and a friend gave me her old iPhone5 with the condition that I clean all her info off of it. Is there any way for me to do that without having her password? She gave me an unlock PIN but it's asking for her password to her gmail account and I doubt she'll be comfortable giving me that.

I was trying to line up a couple of third-party controls while about five flex-boxes deep and the controls had some really weird width issues where they had a lot right-hand padding for no apparent reason. One of those things where if I could hard code widths it would take a few seconds, but, of course, you don't want to hard code widths unless you absolutely have to.

Looking at my iPhone - Go to Settings - Passwords & Accounts - GMail - Delete account

You shouldn't need the password to delete it.
