I'm not an American and English isn't my first language, so the US way to write dates always confused me. Now, I finally understand it! Many thanks, this is legitimately sooooo useful!

Future teacher here, my salary starts at 52$ CAD/hour, which is great! But I'm only paid for the time I'm in class, which is roughly 3h45 per day...
This pay doesn't include the time to prepare the class, the time to correct, the time to attend mandatory meetings on the lunch break. Finally, we don't have our vacation payed, so they split our pay to give us a salary during the summer (okay this last point is fair, but it illustrates that hourly salary in education is not representative).
Wait till you hear about Quarks. True minimalist knows!
I use Mate everyday, it's my DE (Desktop Environment) of choice. I've used it through Ubuntu Mate and Opensuse. There's a huge difference between the two. The difference is, since the main developer of the Mate DE is the main developer of Ubuntu Mate, the experience is noticeably better there. Ubuntu has its flaws, but it's a fairly good all rounder.
Just on a side note, Mate is one of the most "Linux looking" DE. Which is cool since it's different and shows you a different (and in my opinion, more efficient) way to work! But if you want something Windows looking, well it's quite different. If you need light weight and windows looking, look for Lubuntu (or any distro with the LXQT DE)!
It could very well be!
But truthfully, I don't think... Most of those decentralized platforms seems a bit young and imatures. Imature software makes it meh to use, but I think, since the communities are figuring out their power, and what they can do, from the outside it looks like a full on war against each other...
I think the beauty of it (independent instance that can federate[or not]) will also be the reason why "normal" people won't join.
I'm boring Af, I use Ubuntu with Mate DE.
I would love to switch to Opensuse Tumbleweed, but I need Ubuntu because of some interactive board drivers that are only available for ubuntu... 😭
I have no doubt that it can improve the class dynamic! Trust is always a good thing to have a good respect relation between a teacher and students!
And I agree that having a notification and not being allowed to look at it is not useful, if I remember the study actually showed that. But what is definitely better is not being notified at all. To test that, they asked every student to leave the phone in the hallway, so in another room. I'm not talking about the feasibility (risk of theft and other things), but there is a clear impact.
And I was in HS at the same time as you, but honestly, the class dynamic today is way different than it used to be even less then 10 years ago. It surprised me during my internship! I actually had the same policy as your teacher (you can use your phone, respectfully), but clearly I didn't master it... 😅
In one of my class to become an high school teacher, we were thought about some best practices for learning and studying on your own.
Just the fact that you can see your phone (not the screen, just the body) is actively harming your ability to learn. It's because phone are machines to notify you and just seeing, or even feeling it in your pocket, unconsciously makes you alert to its notifications.
The professor after that went on to say that, if you're going to use a laptop, use it to actually take note, nothing else. Since the screen is so big, lots of people can see it, and scrolling through Facebook (or other) impacts your ability to listen (duh, you're doing something else), but also to the others, because it take the attention away from the class, to the screen of the laptop, even if it isn't your laptop. So even Uni student might have to think about how they use their devices...
The best thing about that class was that everything was back with studies! So this isn't just the teacher saying "screw technology!", but actual science!
Si ça pogne est pas nécessairement positif ou négatif.
Ex. : Lemmy est un nouveau site web. Si ça pogne, Reddit aura un nouveau compétiteur. (Si ça devient populaire, Reddit aura un nouveau compétiteur.)
Ici, ca peut être positif et négatif, ça dépend de ton point de vue.
Woah! Good looking! Congrats!
Didn't the first one had an official Linux version tho? Maybe it will be the same?
To add more info then the other comments, this error message seems to indicate that the name of the file is too long or contains invalid characters. In your case, that might be the ".pages.pdf" (the double dots) I would personally try to write only ".pdf".
After a bit of googling, it seems that another reason might be that Apple be Apple. In other words, there seems to be a long, unresolved bug with the smb client in the native apps that bugs out when the smb server is on Linux (and sometimes even if it's on Windows...). One of the solutions mentioned was to use another file manager app.
Now, I do get that, sometimes, error messages are very useless (looking at you "An error occurred"...), but this one is actually pretty self explanatory... A bit of googling before just posting about your problem. And another thing that's generally appreciated is to write what you tried to do to solve the problem. And btw, this doesn't seem to be a Linux problem, more of an Apple one, so you should post it on that Community instead of c/Linux.
