@vriska You always bring the sauce

Sort of surprised they didn't opt for KDE, as QT does well with this kind of environment, as seen on the default Pinebook Pro Manjaro image.

MNT did a really nice job with their Sway setup out of the box, and although they offer Gnome 3 as an option it's really intended to be used with something light like Sway, and it really looks great. Same with their rofi config. Minimalist but pretty.

One of the things about going minimalist on mobile computers is you en up having to solve problems a DE has already done for you. Is it worth the effort? I don't know. I really like I3/Sway but config is a *bear*, same with cwm. Sometimes I just think 'fuck it' and go back to a full DE, but then I feel dirty.

@vriska Better than yesterday's treat?

@h_thoreson Music in particular can really put me in a place. Quite often my Dad's car driving somewhere when I was little.

@h_thoreson Does remembering unlock a lot of memories from that period? I find that when a memory gets triggered it's like it reindexes for want of a better description, and all these details come back.

@nova They've got a lot of good stuff they hide away. I know not why.

@FreeTheColorado@mstdn.social @stux Always loved Tusky. Does all I want.

@h_thoreson It was a lot time ago in my "tonnes of shit jobs" epoch. I never want to be like that person, ever.

@h_thoreson It wasn't a great time. He was an absolute shit.

@h_thoreson I used to work for a business development manager who claimed he left the Navy because "They weren't disciplined enough for me". He was, as Thoreaux might have put it, a fucking prick.

@nuala "But....how?"

@ParadeGrotesque Yeah but do they have clippy

There used to be this really silly pride in high uptime metrics on servers. Those days are so fucking gone.

"EXCUSE ME MADAM PROFESSOR I KNOW YOU'RE ON. A DEADLINE BUT YOUR SERVER UPTIME IS CAUSING ME TO NOT GET MY #NUMBERS"

Crowdstrike have this scoreboard on their dash and it really games your desire to bring it down. If they added achievements I'd be fucked.
