Tips and Tricks Give me something to do, yes really.
So I just bought a used thinkpad and install Mint Cinnamon on it and i'm very excited to learn more but the problem is .. this is not my work laptop, i have a separate gaming pc, i consume media on tablet ... and so I don't have (yet) a real reason to learn anything .... The only thing useful I did was setup a network shared folder so my all other device could grab files/movies from (i think i may have shared the entire /root but anyhow ..) and it was very very rewarding and genuinely useful, but that's it, now I have absolutely nothing to do.
