I feed my cats 2x/day out of canned wet food.

Same, but I mix in a few biscuits to give it a bit of a crunch. They seem to like it.

And they don't half complain when I bring them something small and dead!

does it convert physical book pages to ebooks?

I'm guessing it converts something like ePub to PDF. You could try to write in a way such that it becomes simple to add new formats.

Plasma 6 was released in Feb 2024, 6.4 is about due. I suspect 7 won't happen until Plasma and applications need to be ported to Qt 7.

I think Nvidia drivers are the only real pain point left.

Nvidia drivers pretty much just work now, even on Wayland. On the rare occasion they don't, it can be a pita to sort out though.

The only person you're spiting is yourself.

It's a cat!

There's a lot of truth in that.

Yeah it was a no-brainer. I chose the cats. For some reason she was surprised by that, but if you're jealous of my cats, we're not going to work out.

I once had an ex make me choose between my cats and her.

Also people who don't want to torture their cats

It's not the end of "it doesn't work on Wayland", just the end of an alternative that does work in such circumstances. That said, since explicit sync was merged into the Nvidia drivers, I've had no problems with Wayland / Plasma.

Probably activity monitor is counting buffers and caches which btop isn't.

That's police mogtality right there

With Manjaro, you can solve a lot of the problems by switching to the "unstable" repositories, which mirror the Arch repositories. It doesn't solve the problems with their processes though. There are still better Arch based distros, like EndeavourOS.

It's funny, I update Endeavour daily because there's less to go wrong at a given point

Yeah, 1.5k

Commodore VIC20 with a stonking great 5k of RAM

They domesticated humans to do that for them

Dotfiles are files whose name starts with a dot. Configuration files are called dotfiles because they used to start like that and litter your home directory. These days configuration files tend to live under the .config folder. The name has stuck though.
