cerement@slrpnk.netto Electric Vehicles@slrpnk.net•Which portion of the transport sector do you think is the most difficult to electrify aviation or maritime?5·20 days agofor aviation, we already have airships (which use something like 8% of the power of an airplane)
the biggest “gotcha” is time – taking a week to get to a destination when you only get two weeks vacation is a no go – which means, just like trucks, electrifying aviation and maritime is going to be limited to cargo and commercial for the time being

“circle crop”, not “crop circle” … much disappoint …
- main thing to keep in mind is that a window manager is normally just one component of a desktop environment – full desktop environments like Gnome go to great lengths to assemble a whole fleet of apps to work together to make a cohesive experience
- if you’re going to forego the full desktop environment, then expect to have to fill in on the various missing pieces to suit your needs (file manager, terminal, text editor, clipboard manager, bar/panel/dock)
- if you just want lighter weight but maintain a cohesive experience, then Xfce or LXQt
- otherwise, there are a LOT of choices (both for X11 and for Wayland)
- tiling window managers
- i3 on X or Sway on Wayland are probably the most popular
- special mention: Regolith – pairs Sway on the front end with Gnome components underneath
- dwm for the full do-it-yourself experience
- awesome if you like Lua, xmonad if you like Haskell, exwm if you live in Emacs, Qtile if you like Python
- i3 on X or Sway on Wayland are probably the most popular
- stacking window managers
- Openbox for the old school feel, LabWC as the Wayland successor
- IceWM and JWM for a minimal experience (both show up regularly on Raspberry Pi)
- Motif for the retro enthusiast
not whether you have it – it’s whether you know where it is

well, up until this week, China
(don’t know how amenable they are to individuals versus corporations (or just affordability in general), but a recent news article mentions Ukraine is looking at Govsatcom, Eutelsat, and Iris2)
(one of the older tropes in Linux-land is giving new life to old hardware just by replacing Windows with Linux)
(one advantage of Flatpaks over AppImage is Flatpaks bundle their libraries – most AppImages won’t run on musl libc systems)
can we at least put “scientist” in quotes whenever referring to any of these three?
