fighting GNOME now

I can't get any of my old launchers to work

Why did they call it "Pop!_OS" when KPop_OS" was right there
(seriously, I'm going to have some gripes because I just got done recovering from an NVME disk failure, and now I have to fight GNOME this week, but I'm really enjoying my new computer.)

Why does GNOME not allow me to add launchers to this Applications menu

I had entire "launch" directory just for local launchers. They no longer work!

I mean really... this is what the next day's going to be like. Me finding out how to do things without wiping and reinstalling Mint MATE. ;o)

AUGH SpiderOakOne wants to overwrite my correct sources.list file for their repo with one that will use deprecated key handling

At least the default is NO DON'T MESS IT UP ANY WORSE

I will note that I was able to use my Yubikey out of the box without having to add extra software. Excellent!
