Back in the land of the frozen toes, but I now have a dwelling with a split air system. I'm actually a little surprised at how well it heats. Even beats the portable fancy schmancy Dysons. And... there will actually be aircon this Summer (or whatever weird semblance of a season we have in lieu of Summer). Strangely, I have survived most of my home life without it. I am looking forward to actually being able to sleep through hot weather (although the weird fan in the face thing I had going was working reasonably well).
On my usual weird side notes because, you know, I'm always late to the party... I did discover Acrobat can search within PDFs in a folder. I lament past me for the amount time I have wasted remembering something and then manually searching through endless individual PDFs to find said something. Such a basic thing. (Also am sadly slugging away at a well overdue assignment. cries)
I hope everyone is warm and well.
Wait... teach me this PDF searching magic so that I may put it to good use.
(The grey box is showing a search I already performed. It should show the empty field when you first open it and you can select anywhere on your drive.)
Edit: Hehe, thanks for the cheeky distraction. <3
Holy shit that's awesome. Thanks for the tip!
You are an absolute legend!!! Annotated graphic and all - thank you so very kindly. I will be saving this for use in the near future and will think gratefully of you
You have described it perfectly. That's exactly what it is and I find this to be quite puzzling.
