  • I’m no expert so take this with an appropriately sized grain of salt.

    You should be able to install KDE on whatever distribution you decide. If you want KDE 6, you may have to add a repo, but it should be as simple as sudo <package manager install incantation> whatever-KDE-is-named-in-the-repo

    If you want stability, Debian is the go to, but the tradeoff there is older packages. However if manjaro is working for you, don’t fix what isn’t broken. I don’t know how good Debian is for gaming, but honestly any distribution should be just fine for dev. Considering what steam has done with Arch as the base, it may be worth considering Arch as an option.

    To the partitions, I’m not knowledgeable enough to make recommendations as to what you should or shouldn’t touch. My instinct is to not touch /boot/efi

    Something can definitely go wrong when playing with partitions, so make that backup of everything as planned and test it before you make any changes to the system.



  • Capitalism/the profit motive is how physicians get caught in these systems of apathy. My comment isn’t an over simplification, it is the root cause.

    Is the entirety of the healthcare system incredibly complex? Absolutely, and within that complex system there are all sorts of problems that could be teased out to study and address. None of that will dramatically change the outcome of a system that is designed solely to extract as much profit as it can.

    When profit is the primary goal of a healthcare company (and the legally mandated responsibility of that company if it is publicly traded) the end result is the system we have.



  • The profit motive needs to be removed from healthcare, or patients will continue to get fucked.

    Healthcare needs to be separated from employment, and the profit motive needs to be removed from healthcare.

    Should the government run it? Maybe not, but what’s the alternative? It’s like every election. Choosing one of two bad choices and hoping you choose the less bad.

    And in the case of healthcare, I’ll take government run, profit free, tax funded healthcare over what we have now.

    Edit: autocorrect error.




  • I’ve got a raspberry pi 4 (8GB) running Kodi (via osmc) hooked up to our tv. The tv itself is a Roku tv that isn’t allowed to connect to the internet.

    I’ve also got a pc that used to be my streaming/video editing rig back when I used to make videos, but I repurposed it as my server, and it runs Jellyfin, along with a host of other apps/services for me and my family.

    The pc is older, but as a server it works great. Biggest drawback is power consumption, it’s not nearly as efficient as a mini pc with a n100 or something similar, but for my purposes it works great.





  • Here’s my .tmux.conf

    I’m using ctrl-s as the prefix key, vim keybindings for pane navigating, v and f for new panes, and the Dracula theme.

    
    # enable mouse
    
    set -g mouse on
    
    # enable leader r to relaod config file
    
    unbind r
    bind r source-file ~/.tmux.conf
    
    # change leader key combo from ctrl-b (C-b) to C-s
    
    set -g prefix C-s
    
    # toggle through panes with vim keys
    
    bind-key h select-pane -L
    bind-key j select-pane -D
    bind-key k select-pane -U
    bind-key l select-pane -R
    
    # change pane splits from % & - to v & f
    
    unbind f
    bind-key v split-pane -h
    bind-key f split-pane -v
    
    # List of plugins
    set -g @plugin 'tmux-plugins/tpm'
    set -g @plugin 'tmux-plugins/tmux-sensible'
    
    #dracula theme appearance and customizations
    
    set -g @plugin 'dracula/tmux'
    set -g @dracula-show-powerline true
    set -g @dracula-show-left-icon session
    set -g @dracula-plugins "ssh-session time"
    
    # Initialize TMUX plugin manager (keep this line at the very bottom of tmux.conf)
    run '~/.tmux/plugins/tpm/tpm'
    
    

    Edit: fix stupid autocorrect.
