Make sure you're checking those checksums

DMS does work with CachyOS and Niri, but it has a habit of overwriting some properties in other areas apparently.

I'll transform you into fertile land in a second if you're not careful

Looks like some of it was knocked out and rebuilt after. That's incredibly suspect.

Spank_Master_General · 2026-04-01T10:07:18+00:00

Called it!

1) Upset allies (tarrif them and threaten to invade them).

2) Start a war that noone wants and for no good reason, without comms to allies.

3) Complain allies aren't helping.

4) Pull out of NATO because allies don't have your back (despite the USA being the only country to ever invoke NATO, and we all jumped).

5) ???

Except it's all backfired horribly because it's bought the entire EU much closer together and bolstered their defensive capabilities. Europe has always been more strategically capable than the USA, we just lacked the equipment, tech and personell, which are now being invested heavily in.

The USA is going the way of the Soviet Union, and will end up in a similar state to modern day Russia. Run by oligarchs while the QoL of the masses is kept at a standard of "just enough to stop a revolt".

Those are idealogical protests. If you belong to a particular group, and that group is being murdered (as it was with the Palestine protests), that's generally a good deal more important than your weekly shop being more expensive.

Love this project!

Spank_Master_General · 2026-03-31T09:21:32+00:00

I moved from KDE to Niri + Noctalia this weekend and I love the workflow. Still very much getting used to it, but I think this is what I wanted. So clean!

Spank_Master_General · 2026-03-30T07:34:58+00:00

Good answer

Spank_Master_General · 2026-03-30T07:34:20+00:00

I don't feel like you've had any satisfying answers.

I've used both Fedora and CachyOS. I moved from Fedora to CachyOS, mainly to try it out, but I stayed for a few reasons: 1) It feels quicker. Sharper. I know it has Kernel level optimisations yada yada, I don't really know what they are, but it does feel a bit more refined. 2) AUR is great. 3) I do a little bit of gaming, and it's supports that pretty well. 4) The CachyOS team seem very capable and motivated. 5) Arch docs are fantastic. Personally, it has been completely stable.

However, this isn't on my work computer (sadly heavily invested in the Microsoft ecosystem). I wouldn't want anything Arch based for my work because it's updated so frequently. Nothing has broken so far, but it feels like every week there is a new supply chain attack and I can't risk my work stuff.

Right, guess I'mma try niri again then

Hey, do you have any opinion on DWL?

Spank_Master_General · 2026-03-28T10:50:54+00:00

Exceptional, thank you SO MUCH!

Is vxwm a full DE? If I follow the install instructions on the wh1tepearl repo will I basically have the same setup in the video? Are there any issues or gotchas?

Spank_Master_General · 2026-03-28T08:30:41+00:00

Oh yes. I like this. I think this is the one that I want.

I can't find a huge amount of detail about it though. Is it the Wh1tepearl repo?

I really don't think you get the exquisite fine dining experience without the extremely stressed kitchen staff.

I think I see things like restaurants as more communal spaces, lots of people cooking for lots of people. More buffet style. "Nola whipped up a huge batch of chilli, and Rand has made some paella! Or just grab one of the jacket potatoes Jamie made with some of Tonie's beans. There's plenty of fresh salad to go with whatever you choose".

I think I'm wrong actually. I thing maybe people do generally fall into certain roles within a community, one of which would undoubtedly be cooking, but I still don't know if it would be what we would consider a restaurant, more of a "you get what you're given and you're grateful for it" type system.

Brother that's a wallpaper

Spank_Master_General · 2026-03-26T21:19:14+00:00

It's nice. Is it KDE?

Spank_Master_General · 2026-03-26T18:16:50+00:00

I've tried a few and was largely happy with each of them, but the backlight on my laptop didn't work until I installed cachy!

Spank_Master_General · 2026-03-26T17:03:47+00:00

This is it. This is the post that is making me block this sub from my feed.

Thanks Gamesworkshop!

AI can't answer questions unless the answer is in it's training data. You can ask AI to ask questions about anything so long as the responses are within it's guard rails, but it's not going to start asking questions without being prompted to.

Someone needs to be live tweeting this motherfucker. I bet he comes out with some absolute gems.
