Earlier I unloaded on my #therapist all I'd been doing with #Linux the past few days, what my plans are with it, etc. Tried to make analogies that'd hopefully make sense to a non-techie (ie "Linux is the wiring and insulation and so forth inside the walls and in the basement that makes everything work, whereas a desktop environment is the furniture & carpeting & paint job on the walls," " #Mint & #Ubuntu are like houses that have already been built, whereas #Arch is just a foundation and you need to bring in walls and windows and furniture and put it together yourself," and so on.) And now he's talking to me with "You gotta find YOUR Linux, YOUR operating system" and such.
Had fun spending almost 2 hours this morning messing around with options in my #laptop 's #Moksha ( #DE for #Bohdi #Linux ) like I did in #KDE on my #desktop before it went kaput. They were right: it DOES offer lots of little doo-hickeys to play with like KDE but still lightweight enough to use on a decade-old lappy!
Chris Ulmner is a fucking saint, I think I'm going to look into donating to his cause.

Climate Change Mitigation: Near Term Solutions by Isaac Arthur

Oh the irony of naming a scientific discovery over someone whose entire platform is anti-education in nature. I cant tell you how many environmentalist organizations I had to stop donating to or participate in because they adopted her image too. She makes me sad :(
Sadly, must stick to defaults in both #IceCat and #Bohdi since IceCat sees any theme I try to install as corrupt and the tiny number of #Enlightenment themes mess up one or two essentials like making the backgrounds of file managers white (OUCH MY EYES). Sad sad.
Almost March; about time to hunt for #wallpapers and #themes to match the #Spring #season !
Instead of plain #nature scenes (like I'd done for the past three months: #photos [ #photo ] and #art of snowy mountains, snowy forests at night, snowy cities, snowy this-and-that...) I'm thinking of nature #deities ( #deity ) and #religions ( #religion ) like #Celtic , #Shinto , and even D&D/cRPG #gods ( #god ) like Obad-Hai and Kynareth!
And of course green-ifying the heck out of my desktop environments and so on! I like the default theme of #Moksha on #Bohdi #Linux ( #BohdiLinux ) with its simple "dark solarpunk" flavor, but my #Android and desktop definitely need work.
Wish I could get friends & family to use more secure messengers like Matrix and Jami. But it was hard enough to get a handful to get on the !propeller-head-friendly #Signal !
There's no way I could convince anyone to try anything that even looks "l33t h4x0ry" who use their phones for nothing more than texting, #facebook , and shooting family photos.

You look like you could use a friend, outlander. Perhaps I can be your friend. I'd like you to help me recover some gold.
