I have enough of my key tools and apps working that I think I can use wayland+niri as my daily driver on my personal laptop for a while. 2025 is the year of wayland on the desktop! Blog post with details coming soon.

I was abducted by aliens. They made me wash my hands, clean my room, and eat my vegetables.

Casually set up an additional linux gui login session to try wayland & niri. So far so good. Long way to go to get it dialed like my awesomewm x11 setup though.

@ottaross oops I did it again. At this price it would have been fiscally irresponsible to not buy this cake. It cost less than 2 cannoli.

The existence of antipatterns suggests the existence of an antipattern language and, we can consequently infer, a Gang Of Negative Four.
