Yea I have the Windows machine at home for gaming but if I ever would do any LaTeX stuff at home I would do it from a virtual machine I think... But I guess if one normally uses linux then one want that to boot first...

oh, no "/me" here :(

/me thinks it is a pain to do the actual reboot... it takes like forever... :)

yea I guess but when does the virtual machine not cut it?

is dual boot really worth it these days when computers are fast and virtual box is easy?

I love this place! :)

Please take a moment and look at this very beutiful solution that I got from Andrew Swann, tex.stackexchange.com/questions/232916/…

Hm the feeling of being completely stuck, having spent a long time writing a minimal example (without solving the problem), having asked the question and hoping someone will give some nice pointers while at the same time feeling that although one is completely stuck one should try to find another solution... Is there a word for that feeling? :)

can someone remind me?

but I can't remember which close alternative that is

this tex.stackexchange.com/questions/134276/… should probably be closed since it works in latest version

hey

I mean I am sure people must have done nice solutions and it would be nice to be able to browse through such

Would you say it is okey to ask for such a thing? Maybe there already exists something that I hav missed?

I thought I would bounce a question by you guys. I know big community wiki lists of similar answers is a bit complicated. However, I found myself looking at my ToC the other day and thinking: "is there nothing nicer around?". I have looked a bit and found a few question implementing specific wishes for specific ToC layouts but I am yet to find a big list of nice ToCs.

@egreg that one loks familiar. But wasn't it closed as too localized not as a duplicate?

does anyone know what's going on with lualatex and ttf fonts? I just updated texlive and now it refuses to find fonts in the same folder as the tex file which it found just find before...

I usually just google but this was handy

neat :)

@Johannes_B: Interesting, where can I find that?

yea

yea, it's just that I (and I will happily admit that my brain is frying here trying to learn pgfplots for the first time) looked at that question / answer over and over again and could not solve my problem. Also I can not see the solution I got in that question so I am having a really hard time understand in what sense it is a duplicate. And since I want to learn pgfplots for the moment I would love to understand how it can be a duplicate. It's not so easy for a bear of very little brain...

ah there we ahve a link. Thanks :)

:)

aouch

Also, what happend to the link to this chat room? I had to go trough google to find it here...

In what way is tex.stackexchange.com/questions/149175/… a duplicate?

I am not really having the best of days and I am wondering if maybe someone can help me?

hi

okey, I am just trying this since as of last hour and I am already beginning to like it :)

can I use latex commands inside tikz?

okey cool

well I want to explain things both with figures and text so feels natural to have them both in the same file. I am just wondering if I am missing something obvious...

okey

do you have some strong opinions on why?

I am trying to see why

tex.stackexchange.com/questions/43780/… seems to indicate that it is a good idea to keep the tikz separate

I am just starting to play with tikz and I am wondering about your opinions

@egreg ah I see

uhm, another question. What is 3415 which is underneath my thumbnail?

\o/ I made it :)

@egreg indeed

hm

@egr

I suppose :)

I am confused. Does this question tex.stackexchange.com/questions/144757/… actually contain a question?

aha, there are tag badges. Makes sense :)

makes sense, but there seems to be colours attached too. Ar those perhaps grading of how active somehow?

What do the tag listings underneath mean?

ah cool
