been using Arch for years but i am still a novice, yesterday i had found that in order for something to work on my system i will need to edit a few lines in kernel which i did, then removed unnecessary modules > intel, > nvidia, compiled. it worked great but with Arch and its rolling release i am dreading the next update and having to go through this again.
what methods are there to automate this process?

at a divest rally with Palestine Solidarity one of the protestors gave me this book recommendation.

Worth a read?

Nigel Farage “man of the people” is charging his supporters £1,000 for a photograph and to share a glass of champagne with him.

Farage is the highest earning MP and represents nothing but the establishment. Reform UK is the party of millionaires not ordinary people

Stand Up To Racism aka Socialist Workers Party posted to twitter this absolute gem.

tell me the most ass over backward shit you do to keep your system chugging?
here's mine:
sway struggles with my dual monitors, when my screen powers off and back on it causes sway to crash.
system service 'switch-to-tty1.service'

[Unit]
Description=Switch to tty1 on resume
After=suspend.target

[Service]
Type=simple
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/switch-to-tty1.sh

[Install]
WantedBy=suspend.target

'switch-to-tty1.service' executes '/usr/local/bin/switch-to-tty1.sh' and send user to tty1

#!/bin/bash
# Switch to tty1
chvt 1

.bashrc login from tty1 then kicks user to tty2 and logs out tty1.

if [[ "$(tty)" == "/dev/tty1" ]]; then
    chvt 2
    logout
fi

also tty2 is blocked from keyboard inputs (Alt+Ctrl+F2) so its a somewhat secure lock-screen which on sway lock-screen aren't great.

We have seen right wing populist protest violently through many cities and towns. Bristol stood strong today outnumbering the few protestors.

We witnessed division.

That division is made worse. Many of these protestors on the right have been mislead by modern media. Its so much easier to blame our national issues on migrants and look no further, in this way: calling them "fascists" or blindly proclaiming to want fully open borders may seem to be a gotcha but all we achieve is to alienate the confused working class people who we must bring over to our side.

Our NHS is fucked from political mishandling, deals with private capitalist. Our homes are in short supply due to private development that build for profit. Our education, utilities and other things aren't businesses and shouldn't profit like them. These are the programme's we must push across.

Solidarity Bristol I am proud to stand with you.

Noticed these strange looking balls that may pass for an art installation but imagine maybe temperature control?

Screen on event crashes PC and corrupts journalctl, seems to be an issue with edid.

Currently solution has been moving to TTY1 then moving back to sway (tty2) as TTY seems to have no issue handling these events.

Where can I start trouble shooting this?

ultrawade oled, lots of custom scripts.

I wanted to share a setup I’ve been using to maintain a clean desktop while using Firefox in fake fullscreen mode. This setup allows Firefox to run fullscreen with auto-hiding tabs and search elements that only show when hovered over, without pushing the webpage content down.

• Install cage, can be found for most distros
• Run and test application -d removes desktop decorations, firefox command 'firefox -somecommand' cage 'firefox' -d
• If running correctly edit launch options in de or .desktop file Exec=cage 'firefox' -d then install auto-fullscreen extension

its a long work around especially when its possible to get a similar result from editing about:config but this way the tab and searchbar act as a seperate element meaning no misclicking. if anyone has cleaner solution chime in please.

so this is a technical issue that i have already reached out over but to no response or fix. i have used my alias's and have deactivated one of those alias's a year ago, i now and haven't been able to reactivate the alias.

i would like to see this issue remedied but the lack of response is disheartening especially after reaching out to technical support months ago and hearing nothing back.

I made this community as a reaction to the July 4th general election taking place in the United Kingdoms, to mobilize my fellow comrades in the lead-up to the general elections, the group is party agnostic though there is an obvious bias due in part to my political affiliation but all leftest parties that fight for dignity and the working class are very much welcome.

By all means feel free to join where ever you may come from whether for information or solidarity.

In solidarity.
