operating temperatures down to -15C

I would personally triple check to make sure this means what you think it means.

Assuming it does, you should be in the clear. Cutting the power when it gets colder is probably not necessary since the freezer won’t have any reason to run, but it might be a worthwhile precaution anyway. If for some reason the compressor does try to run with frozen oil, it might damage itself or try to draw too much power and blow a breaker (or start a fire if your wiring is sketchy). Better to be on the safe side.

“Steam gauges” on car/plane instrument panels. Yeah, digital displays are cheaper to manufacture and less prone to failure, but they kinda suck the fun out of it.

Did you only try F2? It’s possible the graphical session is on tty2 - see if ctl+alt+F1/ 3 does anything

You should look into kodi. It’s a big screen oriented media player/organizer app.

Have you ever noticed those low effort reposts also getting the same top 10 comments as the original? It’s slop all the way down.

This may not fit perfectly into the that category but i think it’s cool how Lazarus Jones exists in the media in some capacity in most of the GTA games. One of the best threads of continuity throughout the series.

I’d rather have a New Deal 2

Not just mp3, all lossy audio formats use psychoacoustic analysis. That’s how they figure out which data to throw out.

Not sure if sarcasm or actual disinformation. You’re not supposed to trust the aur, that’s kinda the whole point of it. The build scripts are transparent enough to allow users to manage their own risk, and at no point does building a package require root access.

Probably have a few cards running the displays and the rest of them mining some sphere-themed memecoin

Alright, but if I end up getting stuffed in a goo-filled pod so the AI can suck my energy out through a massive plug in the back of my head, I’m gonna be pretty upset.

A really common issue with sway is that it doesn’t run as a login shell, so none of your .profile or other environment settings get sourced when you login. I think that might be the problem here.

Try closing your sway session, then login to a tty and run sway. If the qt themes work properly then it’s definitely an environment issue.

Fellow Arch user here (btw). It’s exactly the same as building AUR packages. Clone a git repo containing a PKGBUILD, use makepkg to build it, and pacman to install it. The nice thing is you can host a repo of your built packages and install them on other systems really easily. The big downside is that dependency management is not automated, so it will take some time and annoyance to map out what packages you need to build and in what order, if you want a fully source-bootstrapped system.

I think this is a good enough reason to actually put in some effort to phase out ipv4 and dhcp. There shouldn’t be a way for some random node on the network to tell my node what device to route traffic over. Stateless ipv6 for the win.

Honestly, huge shout out to the wave of enshittification crashing through Google and reddit and forcing me off their platforms. Decade-long debilitating addiction solved.

Yeah, the even numbered seasons didn’t draw me in quite the same as the odd ones. Still a fantastic show altogether

I second the wayland option. Then you at least have a working gui with all your settings and recent work intact while you try to find the glitch in your Xorg install.

I’ll probably get bodied by a massive SUV while cycling

Have you ever wondered what that random family living in your house is always so freaked out about? Maybe try going towards the light.
