Religion is a great scam.
Now you’ve got them in the palm of your hand.
If the top bar is set up as a menu bar, it could save space on the screen when multiple horizontally placed windows (without individual menu bars) are on the screen. Other than that, I think the general top bar stuff can just be in the bottom bar.
The thing stopping me from using Arch is that most programs come out as debs and you have to wait for them to show up in the AUR. Example: when Mullvad VPN first came out it was only available as a deb. How long did it take to show up in the AUR? Who made that available? Was it the Mullvad folks or someone else? That’s the kind of thing that concerns me.
I find tiling more efficient because
The more I use tiling, the more advantages I find. At this point I think I could use any desktop as long as I had Krohnkite functioning tiling.
I wanted to give tiling a chance. I decided to use Krohnkite for a week to give it a chance. At first I didn’t care for tiling but quickly got into it and now I love it. Sometimes to really know if something is going to work for you or not, you have to give it some time. I’ve used this approach for other things (not all work out) but for Krohnkite it did for me. Also, don’t forget to check out all the Krohnkite options.
Do RSS feeds count as a “service”? I fear one day they will go away and that will be the end of my efficient way of keeping up with things I am interested in.
Good question. Along the same lines, if your disk is encrypted and you make a simple backup (say using cp) is the backup encrypted and if so, how do you restore from that?
Join a bunch of communities that you may be interested in to fill up your feed with a bunch of stuff to read. That way, if you want to take a break and read stuff, you can look here rather than on Reddit. You can look for communities here that are a close match to what you had on Reddit. Over time, you can dial them in and hopefully not feel the need to go back to Reddit.
I never go back and just to read Reddit. I only go there if a web search looking for something in particular takes me there.
"As far as Redmond is concerned, this is all for the user’s own good. " What a joke!
I was thinking that these companies would be making a lot of money and people with money would love to invest in them. This would further split people as those invested would want the companies to thrive and those that couldn’t afford to invest …
I do see how being private corporations would work too.
Since not many people have answered, I’ll share mine even though it would happen outside the 3 year window.
All pollution standards will be dropped. The air will become so bad that homes will have to have active filtration and people will have to have active personal protection when they go outside. Both of these active devices will run on a subscription plan controlled by publicly owned companies. Can’t pay, can’t breath. The same will apply to water.
I believe some amount of people support the assholes because some how they think (or hope) they will benefit by giving that support (especially so many of the assholes have so much power and money.) The “trickle down” effect from the assholes. Oops, might not have been the best phrase … on second thought …
It is a nice read, but it really is just an add for some products on Amazon. I’ve been had :(
Stripping isn’t a shameful profession. Treating it as such (by not telling your son) just perpetuates the idea that it is. Sure his friends may say something if/when they find out, but kids that age would react that way to anything around “sex” type issues. Best situation, this turns out to be an opportunity to educate him, his friends and others.

I haven’t tried it, but the live kernel updates feature is what intrigues me the most.
If you install the latest Kubuntu with backports enabled, you can get a newer version of KDE than the one that comes “stock” with Kubuntu. The KDE version isn’t as new as KDE Neons’, but still newish.
Any religion that ever was, is or will be. Dumb for the people that fall for it, smart for the people that run it.
AI is going to make customer service so much worse than it is now. Makes me want to be a customer as infrequently as possible.
I thought up/down wasn’t for approval/disapproval, but to vote if the post was worth reading. In other words, a well written, factual article about a topic you disagree with should have a good number of up votes.
