The moments I really like Linux and Thinkpads: I just dd’ed my old ssd to the new 512GB-SSD, worked a bit of gparted- and lvm-magic and replaced the SSD with pretty minimal effort. Welcome more free space \o/

Tamariz-stack: half is done more or less. Let’s go second half. Even in the hospital I didn’t managed several quiet hours to learn it. Now I just do a bit every day and slowly but surely I do progress.
There is a new e-mail-client called aerc for the command line which is in early development but looks promising judging by my first tests: drewdevault.com/2019/06/0…
I think I found a milk-alternative for muesli: spelt “milk”. It is a bit on the sweet side but works very well :)
The fourth story in Doctorows “Radicalized” was about preppers and the collapse of civilization. That one was really good. The first story is still the best. But still: get the book, like everything I read from Doctorow it shows an interesting peek into a possible future.
The third story of Doctorows „Radicalized“ was about the US health care-system and how people could become domestic terroriste because of it. I liked the story a lot. The first story is still the best because it is the most universal one so far. The other two are very US-centric.
I am searching a vegan alternative for milk (coffee and muesli). The first try worked in coffee for one or two coffees but I am already kind of sick of it :/ A mixture of an oat and soy drink called “Barista”. Next up: unsweetened almond milk.
The second story in Doctorows book “Radicalized” about racism and how society deals with police brutality was good but too much for a US-audience for me. Let’s see how the third story is which gave the book apparently its name.

Unexpected: magic-groups that leave the same feeling as using Twitter: regularly feeling some form of “angry” Only one good thing to do: leave them
Nicht vergessen: Wählen gehen! Wegen meines Krankenhausaufenthalts war das umständlich. Meine Frau musste mir die Vollmacht bringen zum Unterschreiben, Briefwahlunterlagen holen und bringen, wieder zum Rathaus. Und heute selber wählen gehen. Ihr müsst nur zu eurem Wahlbüro.
Normalerweise schau ich ja weg, wenn Nadeln in mich gesteckt werden. Heute aber hab ich das erste Mal die Nadel von einem Zugang gesehen. Boah ist die lang und dick…brrrr
Contra „Please don’t theme our apps”
There is an open letter from Gnome-developers that distributions shouldn’t theme apps (icons, window themes etc). They acknowledge though that if you want to do it on your system but that is ok and that you are in unsupported areas then. The reasoning is that all theming in Gnome is only a hack since there is no theming -API and things can and will break.
I am a Linux-user and I am a Gnome-user. I like to theme my desktop and think that it is one of the great things on the Linux-desktop: I can make it look like I want it. Some desktops work better for that, some are not so good. Gnome is inherently bad for this. Regularly themes break with Gnome-upgrades. And I just couldn’t understand why the Gnome-devs just not stabilize how elements are called and hand out documentation. After all, gnome themes are stylesheets and graphics.
And theming GDM is really hard. I never really figured out how I do it non-destructibly.
Apparently it is not the intention of Gnome to be themable. I have to say that as a user I’d rather like to see an open letter from developers of GTK-apps that Gnome gets a theming-API than asking distribution develops to stop theming their apps. One way or another, you have to do the design work and if there would be a stable API, theme developers could use that. Then the app-dev would style her app, the theme-dev develops her theme and when there is a bug with a theme, you file it with the theme-dev, not the app-dev.
And Adwaita got a lot better with Gnome 3.32 but I prefer themes like Arc, Yaru, North and others more.
Apple introduces a new laptop. They talk about speed, I search the site if it has a better keyboard…
I was in a magic lecture today which was pretty great but the magic that was performed in the pub after that while the magicians were jamming was just awesome…so much crazy stuff…
