Every micro-angstrom and so on.

If you have to read PDFs regularly having a vertical monitor is a lifesaver.

On the arch wiki for SSDM I found this:

Changes to your display configuration made in a Plasma Wayland session (e.g. monitor layout, resolution, etc) will not persist to SDDM. To make them persist open Plasma’s System Settings and navigate to Startup and Shutdown> Login Screen (SDDM) and click “Apply Plasma Settings…”. You will need to have permission to perform this action.

You should give that a try

I’ve just been logging in upside down for a couple years. My monitor’s vesa Mount is like 3 inches from the top for some reason so having it upside down is the only way I can get a reasonable ergonomic height

Which display manager are you using?

Those who think that we should stop using fossil fuels, or think that economic growth is possible in a renewable energy future, do not understand the physics of how the world works.

Those who think we should continue using fossil fuels despite the climate change and weather effects we’re already seeing do not understand the physics of how the world works.

Whenever someone starts with the high minded “no other species has ever done this” talk is just intellectually masturbating. We’re the first true mammal bipeds, the first species with complex language capabilities allowing us to compound generational knowledge, the first to live in air conditioned houses and eat breakfast cereal. We are fundamentally different in so many ways from other species that this line of argument means nothing. I understand that life’s order is allowed by thermodynamics because we pay for our existence by distributing energy and settibg off chemical reactions as we find them, but what’s the mechanism of our destruction should we stop drilling for and burning fossil fuels tomorrow? Are the squirrels going to take over the drilling and kill us all? Come on. If we don’t dig it up and burn it, it’s going to stay under the ground.

If you’re on spinning rust with a modern CPU, compression actually helps your read/write speeds quite a bit. It’s faster for the CPU to compress/decompress then read/write less data because hard drives are so slow in comparison.

I’m going to go against the flow here and say BTRFS. It’s stable enough to the point of being a non consideration. You get full backups using a negligible amount of storage. Even using it on Windows is easier than using ext4 with the winbtrfs driver.
