The texture menu I marked in the screenshot is the one you need. Make a new texture, then scroll down to 'Image' and open the texture file or video. Then you can simply drag it over to your cube. Set the 3D window to 'render' and the object will appear in the texture. My problem now is to apply the texture only to one side. Up to now all sides get the texture. There probably is a more selective way to do this, but I don't know it right now.

This comes down to what I did: Blender: How to Add a Texture – Simply Explained | All3DP[^]
However, this still ends up with one texture being applied to all sides of the cube and does not show how to use a different texture on each side.

It's easy, once you know what to do.
Go to the 'Material' menu (its one tab to the left of the texture menu).
Make six new materials, select each of them one at a time, go over to the the texture menu and assign one new texture (image or video) to it. The texture must be checked in the list and should appear in the preview below.
Go back to the material menu. When you select one in the list, it should also be previewed with the selected texture.
Now go to the 3D window, set it to edit mode and select the faces of one of the sides of the cube. Then select a material in the and click the 'Assign' button right below the list. Do this for all sides of your cube and you are done*.
* Set the 3D editor window to 'Render' instead of 'Solid' or simply press F12 to see the textures on the cube.
And now it's time for bed! The boss will shoot me if I tell him that I had to texture a cube before catching some sleep.

I quickly unwrapped a cube myself. In this screenshot I marked the texture menu on the right side:

There you can define your textures.

I think I'm gonna back off of Blender and try using Natron. It's just a compositor, but I think that's going to be good enough for not.
Ultimately, I'd like to build (or find a blender guy to build) a 3d version of the turkeymonkey avatar I use here, maybe with flapping wings, so I can composite that into my intro...

It's much better than it used to be.
In the original versions, the creators went out of their way to make it non-Windows-ish. Almost nothing worked the way almost everything else in the software world did.

Oh. You mean you can't handle that every key on the keyboard does at least 4 different things depending on which mode you're in?

How about three different menu bars, multiple buttons that have the same freakin icon, right-click to select items (you can invert that in the interface options) space bar to call up the context menu (that isn't really a context menu) that doesn't have corollary items in the main menu bar...
I could go on, but at some point my brain shuts down and refuses to accept any of it.

Use their 2.8 Beta - they have addressed the worst of the right/left mouse button issues and much of the interface. Says beta, but has been stable as heck - Blender foundation used it exclusively to create their new short.

Are you interested to try Blender with Apple.
To be clear I am talking about OS here, not fruit!

It sounded delicious. Baked apples, I assume?

I don't have an Apple, so no, not interested in that.

When I was at Uni, I had a best friend called Mike who bought a very old second hand car (so old, it had a valve radio: I kid you not, it took two minutes to heat up to the point it could receive any station). The starter was indeed a handle, which was no problem until he stalled it in stop-start traffic.
Passing me the starter handle and telling me to be "discrete" and "unobtrusive" so nobody would notice was not the wisest move he ever made.
(But better than his decision not use a condom - AIDS got him before he was 25, poor chap.)

my first car had a starter handle.
too poor to buy a new battery... (petrol, beer and cigs were damn cheap though)
got 2 maybe 3 tries with the electrical starter
- sure to fail if your tongue was in the wrong place.
after that it was the starter handle, bloody hard and hell of a kickback if not turned full round
- one could lose their tongue if it was in the wrong place.

Also very important to keep your thumb out of the way: make a "U" not an "O" with your hand or the kickback can break your thumb. (You get the same advice about how to hold the steering wheel when driving off-road, and for the same reason.)

I spent a couple of year on a sheep station in the early 70s. Power was a diesel generator, you learn bloody quickly to make a U when the kickback will toss you across the room (at 16 I was a skinny little runt).

Please note the stand named 'Java'. Should the next one not be 'ASIC' or 'Script', instead of 'asses'?
