“… in the interests of the public good.”

They misspelled the military by a long shot.

While I agree that the compensation has been way too low for the working class, I fucking hate how this is used as an excuse when it hits certain group. “what are we waiting for?” as if the real working class (employees of supermarkets, fast food chains, gas stations, etc) haven’t being fucked in the ass for a long time. But now it “hurts me, let’s have solidarity”. No sympathy for them. Eat shit.

The day (North) American people realize: they live just to feed corporations’ greed, lobbying is just legal bribery, their government doesn’t give a flying fuck about them, most developed countries’ offering and protection is miles further away from what they have… they won’t do shit. Because the system works as it’s intended to. Maybe ask to bring American freedom to America? 🦅 🇺🇸

Sounds like a YOU problem. Why should we, WFH productive advocates, have to pay for your sins? Get therapy if you need it.

“I need to get back into commuting, which involves time and money, just so Jane Doe doesn’t feel lonely, because they can’t socialise on their own”.

The best way to start is reading the documentation of the project. For example, the docs of i3 (a tiling window manager) are pretty good.

You could do a live USB of Manjaro i3 to test it before installing, that specific disto even comes with basic instructions on how to use i3 written in the default wallpaper. Then start hacking away the config file, and when comfortable, replace the i3 status bar with polybar, which also has great docs and lots of examples.

Trial and error is a good way to learn, and in a live USB you don’t have risks*, except losing everything after rebooting, in which case you could try to run the OS in VirtualBox.

Luke Smith in YT has some pretty good videos explaining stuff.

*as long as you don’t do something very silly, like mounting your drive and formatting/repartitioning it, or trying to install the distro where your actual OS lives.

The same has happened to me few times and sadly I’ve never been able to find a good replacement.

I saw an eBay listing for a pool/billiard ball claiming to be compatible, but that’s not apealling to me, and the price was something ridiculous like 40-50€, so I learned to live with the pain of just rotating the ball upside-down when I hit the dent.

I guess it would be possible to do a tiny patch on the dent with epoxy, but I don’t want to take the risk of making things even worse.

Not sure if it’s possible to make calls, but sounds like a KDE Connect feature.
