    Keep breaking my system while trying to fix bugs, then fix or reinstall, distro-hop when I’m out of bugs, call it permanent revolution.

      The stupidest system is always the one I didn’t build myself. 😤

      I say this in the engineering sense. I didn’t build capitalism please don’t hate me.

    We need a modern Teddy and FDR, concurrently.

    Part of why Biden isn’t getting traction is he doesn’t get what’s happening in the economy. I don’t hear him speak enough about inequality, bifurcation, corruption, housing or seriously increasing taxes on the super wealthy.

    I mean I hear campaign promises, but we’ve been here before.

    He needs to say things, mean them and be scrappy about it. Middle class income and down deserve someone who fights for them, regardless of gender or race.

    Because Trump will have that fight for white folk (esp men). That’s part of how he polls well.

    They gave out money during COVID. Do you think people forgot?

    about a week prior to KDE6 dropping, i woke up and decided that i must aggressively delete KDE entirely, and move over to i3wm.

    I missed the KDE6 fiasco, and am a very happy boy now. Fuck managing windows, floating window managers were a mistake.

      One nice thing about KDE compared to most of the other DEs is that the window manager (kwin) is separate from the underlying components, and it can be replaced!

      There are many walkthroughs like this one out there: https://github.com/heckelson/i3-and-kde-plasma

      You get i3 for tiling window management but you still get to use KDE’s system settings to do configuration like display settings, themes keyboard shortcuts, etc, just like you did before. You can also pick and choose which parts of the KDE desktop you want to keep (menu, krunner, etc)

      Since i3 is just a window manager and is lacking all of that system level stuff it really rounds out i3 to feel like a full DE instead of having to piece together other tools to do those things.
