Love my Chromebook, like Macs, it just works and before you buy it, you can look up exactly how long that model will be supported by Google with updates. Sometimes they even extend it. I wanted to get away from Intel based processors, but if I could have*snip*

My head can solve that in Canvas. Work out the widths of all three bits of text, and if any are too wide for the box, make the box double height and add a CR midway through the text.
Job done.
But doing that in CSS, though..!?!
Eeek!

@Jay This is a perfect example of what you were talking about. Zero excuse for the middle button looking like that.

Next step is to add a second screen buffer, so I can do nice animations, although as I type this, I think I maight not need that.... (ー_ーゞ

The problem is, apple only need to account for a small handful of configurations of hardware, microsoft have to account for millions. it's a surprise to me that PCs work anywhere near properly most of the time.

Just had a similar problem myself. My laptop wouldn't connect with Bluetooth (wouldn't even see the hardware on the motherboard), even though it never had problems before. A bit of Googling and come to find out a Windows update killed it. Tried *snip*

A free flying bird, or a super agile cat...? Which to choose?
Probably cat. The cat gets plenty of roaming opportunities, and they get lovely cuddles from all the people in their lovely warm home.
And leftovers.

I am sticking to HTML/CSS and maybe JS if needed.
I have a Wordpress blog over on Vivaldi, and Wordpress used to be easier until they moved to the block system. More that I am not used to it. Wordpress on Vivaldi is a more secure install and not as feat*snip*

I've never tried doing it in html/css, but I often find that a good way to get a grip of layout stuff is to build a Testcard generator that can scale to different sizes and ratios and whatnot, but still resemble a testcard.

Although I use the validator for finished pages, at the last step, it wasn't even on my brain for testing code I am working on. Lesson learned.

Pro Tip: Indenting CSS (small example below) can help with that sort of error, also this might help debug CSS

Spent an hour trying to figure out why some CSS code was not working and applying the fonts and the size. Had an } I had overlooked and not removed which was making that part of the code close two lines early. Old age and bad eyesight!

It's the ''for the rest of your life'' bit that gets me.
If it were a night, or a week, and I had enough provisions, food-wise, I'd probably go with something like Hobbycraft.
I bet that would be fun.
But a lifetime?!
