Sorry to disappear without a word again. I've been having network issues that
don't make sense - seemingly out of the blue. But I'll discuss this in its
own thread.
Coffee is the first of the four food groups, the foundation of a geeky diet.

And that, coffee, is one of life's absolute necessities. I don't even
look human in the mirror till I had 2 cups of a morning.

The Trinity users list is becoming my entire social life. I also
wonder if maybe this is not healthy. On the other hand, fewer and
fewer people "out there" seem to be really sane; and when I must use
their computers, this worries me even more.
When I was mostly offline for a few days, trying to migrate from
Debian to Devuan, I got 44 emails, of which 43 were from the TDE
mailing list.
Tomorrow, at any rate, I shall try to make it downstairs, past the
front desk, beyond the ice machine, and to go outdoors, maybe even as
far as the library and the farmers market. Also, I need coffee.
Bill Every time I use the new KDE Plasma, I get so
frustrated that I
want to break something. The same goes for whenever I have to use
other people's computers, especially if they run Windoze or the
rotten Apple; and it's even worse when I have to use a public
computer.
The only thing that worries me is that I am becoming my own
island, which is maybe not so good. I am thinking maybe of running
a virtual box inside my Linux machine, in which I can run Windoze
or the rotten Apple or some other Linux OS, just to keep up a
little with changes that are going on "out there".
I could have written this, or most of it. I don't know if it helps
knowing you're not alone...
