Not disagreeing with you, unionization is a right and needs to be treated as such, including in the language we use around it. But don't some unions not allow you to join immediately? Like you have to work there 30 days or something first? That's how I read this
The school pays for final draft, and I am poor. But someone else just showed me fade in was free and works with Linux, so I'm gonna try that out!
Oh shit, this I did not know. I just Googled the price and I guess it only showed the paid version. Sweet! Thank you! If this works, I can officially uninstall Windows! That's literally the last thing holding me to it. :D
It was 8 gigs. Someone else suggested boxes over a VM, would 8 gigs be enough for either of those?
Thank you for the advise! YouTube tutorials, here I come!
I looked into it, but I can't afford it out of pocket. The school pays for final draft, but won't cover anything else :/ If I could, that would definitely be my go-to
They require a program called Final Draft. I looked around but couldn't find an alternative
I will do this. Thank you!
I've never run a virtual machine, because I've always had, frankly, really shitty laptops. Like... Cheapest of the cheap without being a Chromebook. Only decent computer I've ever bought got broken within a month. :(
Can I run VMs on really low end specs? The screenwriting software is the only thing I need it for, and I'm assuming it's pretty much the same as running a word processor.
I'd imagine it requires about as much as a word processor, since that's basically what it is. A word processor with a specialized template and some nifty autofill options. Again, dummy here. If I'm running a virtual machine, can I create a file in it that is saved to my actual machine, or would I need to, like, email it to myself using the virtual windows os?
Y'all, help a dummy out. I dual boot windows and Fedora. I only keep windows around for a very few college classes that require for screenwriting software. I have not booted into windows in months. I have a screenwriting class coming up in a week.
How worried should I be? I am not great with computers, I run fedora mostly because I support the philosophy of Linux, less for the techy stuff. Please advice, Linux people. I'm scurred.
So I just emailed my professor, and he says that I can use fade in if the formatting is the same as final draft, and I buy the license so there's no watermark. Which sucks, but fuggit it it lets me keep using Linux. Do you know if the formatting is the same? This is only my second ever screenwriting class.
