Yes, this was an appropriate response. I hate people who wave guns around like they are toys.

Way too late for that. Every language I know makes some kind of auto conversion for numeric comparisons… and sometimes for strings as well.
I stopped buying phones from carriers 15 years ago for this very reason.
Using sudo when it isn’t necessary, and the real cannon: sudo su… Adding sudo to your command lines indiscriminately causes files you create to be owned by root even though they are in your home directory, and then you end up using sudo to make changes to the files… and then the filesystem permissions cannot prevent you from successfully running an accidental “sudo rm -rf /” command.
Seriously… sudo is not a “habit” to develop in order to avoid dealing with filesystem permissions problems.
Noob question?
You do seem confused though… Debian is both a distribution and a packaging system… the Debian Stable distribution takes a very conservative approach to updating packages, while Debian Sid (unstable) is more up-to-date while being more likely to break. While individual packages may be more stable when fully-updated, other packages that depend on them generally lag and “break” as they need updating to be able to adapt to underlying changes.
But the whole reason debian-based distros exist is because some people think they can strike a better balance between newness and stability. But it turns out that there is no optimal balance that satifies everyone.
Mint is a fine distro… but if you don’t like it, that is fine for you too. The only objection I have to your objection is that you seem to be throwing the baby out with the bathwater… the debian packaging system is very robust and is not intrinsically unlikely to be updated.
tl;dr … it is the web page you are trying to copy from… and the operating system touch screen support… not the browser. You outta luck here… use a different OS or copy from a different web page.
How do you know it isn’t the web page layout? Have you tested the same page with a computer with a mouse?
FWIW I have been running with a whitelist for about 15 years. Kind of a calm feeling to enter a new site every couple of weeks and ignore the busy scripts by default. To each their own.
Jesus. The initial transient used to be about 3%, but now is under 1% for most product being sold. It was never near 20%.
But that doesn’t stop idiots from saying “we have optimizers” and installing them in the shade or facing north and acting surprised when they underperform.
… which is why you also need to join the samba group.
Samba is a pipe of sorts… those settings only apply to files created using that pipe.
SSH is a different pipe, with different configuration. I think you need to modify the umask of the user connecting via ssh and/or add them to a samba group.
Did you check ownership and permissions for .profile?
Having used the web version of Office at my job, I know I would not pay for it. It is compatible-ish, but severely lacking in features, enough so that I don’t trust it to render properly or maintain the formatting entered using the desktop app. If that is good enough then there are lots of alternatives.
