@troubleMoney sadlly that doesn't work in portuguese

i have 4 days to learn about the cray xc40 computer and write a report on it :(

i have a slick smooth trackpoint pulled off a toshiba satellite on my thinkpad that came without one and it sucks because my fingers keep slipping and i have to use a lot of force to move the cursor

i just bought a 10pcs pack of "proper" trackpoints from china for $.79

i can find red and blue

@tinybarks@meows.life idk i just carefully installed whatever texlive i needed so it wouldn't eat up like 10gb in my hard drive

@tinybarks@meows.life no it just needed to be ran through xelatex a bunch of times

protip: if your latex document doesn't compile right, just try again 4 or 5 times

i poked around settings without changing ANYthing at all and after a few times it worked ????

latex is just like that i guess???
like i know about the thing where it has a specific sequence it has to do things in but it didn't work after 2 tries, it was more like 3 or 4
