Wasn't this a solved problem long, long ago? Mouse over the icon and get a popup tooltip that explains more. No wasted screen space on a label that's always there and extraneous after you use the program for more than a week.

And god help you if you try to run some things in anything but full screen. E: Or, a window smaller than 1920x1080, I guess. Even 1366x768 as so many laptops were stuck on for so long was pushing it.

My biggest love of designing (document layout) in a spreadsheet is that I can set oh so many format bits a certain way, say a column width and it stays the same. Compared to the last couple days at work, where a previously existing dynamic(

I seem to recall reading that McVeigh broke into the storage magazine(s) at some local rock quarry and stole dynamite and blasting caps, which would be plenty to set off his home made ANFO (actually ANNM IIRC, but I digress). Guess I'l

I'm currently moving and my desktop is all packed up, so it has given my Deck its chance to shine. As a Stardew Valley machine, I'm getting upwards of 6 hours of life out of the battery, can't sneeze at that at all.
