aimed at beginners who confuse “hasn’t been updated for a year” with “hasn’t needed to be updated for a year”
once you have some experience under your belt, these are non-issues:
- deciding to “learn Linux” the hard way by starting with a specialized distro (Slackware, Gentoo, Alpine)
- switching to unstable or testing branches before you’re ready ’cause you want bleeding edge or “stable is too far behind”
- playing around with third-party repositories before understanding them (PPAs in Ubuntu, AUR in Arch)
- bypassing the package manager (especially installing with
curl | sudo sh) - changing apps for no other reason than “it hasn’t been updated for a year”
too true, Trump is much closer to Mussolini, weaponized incompetence writ large
as was foretold in the sacred prophecies of Stargate
TIL: “desperation” = “ambition”

slowly putting together a new system – I didn’t plan on it being a lightweight system, it’s just kinda ended up that way (and probably won’t be by the time I finish) – actually finding it kinda fun building up piece-by-piece
- Alpine Linux
- labwc (straight from tty, no DM yet)
- foot terminal
- Fira Sans and Fira Mono fonts
- fog_forest_alt_1 from Everforest Walls
- gruvbox-material-dark-blocks Openbox theme
- gruvbox-dark foot theme

- FR4 plate in JLC Blue (missing Ultramarine’s hint of green)
- Gateron Melodic switches
- MTNU Susu keycaps
- running Vial firmware
- a BIG thanks to Noah Kiser’s PCB design videos and JLC’s PCB fab and assembly services
