my most problematic trait is that I enable natural scrolling on all my trackpads

I wonder how far I can go, and how much I can see

this toot is brought to you by the first four episodes of to heart

harem anime are way more fun if you just imagine all the girls are dating each other too

if anybody is interested in hearing my band, crosstalk, we start playing at 57 min into this video: https://vod.newellijay.tv/w/b5U2WgLeGinUYfQnrWagTE?start=0s

it's a 2013 macbook air with a new battery and linux mint

set up a friend with her first linux machine today 😀

drink the coffee, shinji

my etsy suggestions are all digimon plushies and ny jets merch. the duality of helena.

clarification on things awesome should do by default:
have some method of suspending the system available other than typing a command in the run prompt
do literally anything to manage connecting/disconnecting monitors

oh all the tiling wms I've used, awesome has probably the worst default config. it's incredibly extensible and feature-packed but you wouldn't know it from a base install.

I think I should install one of the linux distros that ships with an awesomewm config in a vm to see what they're doing. I miss a lot of my awesome config in plasma, but in plasma everything works by default. I need things to be functional by default

thankfully the typestar can print on thermal paper and run of C cells just fine, but, ya know.

I would very much like to remove all of the dead ni-cad batteries from my life, and so would the hazerdous waste guy, but here we are.

and yet somehow I can't get a new ribbon or battery pack for my canon typestar 🙄

there is an astounding variety of typewriters in production in 2023

I really wish there was an extremely comprehensive unix settings app that was desktop-independent

maybe I'll completely lose my mind and install plasma

I am making an executive decision that I need to go back to a full desktop environment on my main computer. lxqt maybe? I want to keep tiling.
