so my computer is working fine, right. no problem at all. except when I download a file and click the firefox "open containing folder" button, it opens in nautilus (GNOME file manager) instead of dolphin (KDE file manager). this is weird, because I use KDE and have always used KDE on this installation. why is nautilus even there? I try to remove it and pacman says no, presumably because it's installed as a dependency of something. okay, that makes sense. of what? xdg-desktop-portal-gnome. wait, why do I have xdg-desktop-portal-gnome? I know you're supposed to have xdg-desktop-portal backends, but I also have the correct one I need (-kde) so have no need for the incorrect one. this is probably also a dependency I guess? I check what depends on xdg-desktop-portal-gnome specifically instead of depending on the portal generally, which is what you're supposed to do. it's... lutris? ok?? I guess I must've installed lutris at some point, but I never used it.
so I remove lutris and then my firefox "open containing folder" opens the KDE file manager as expected.
for some reason, there is a toyota dealership in hamilton, ON, that is selling two used right hand drive Honda Fits, 2006 for 20k CAD and 2009 for 18k CAD, a 2008 RHD Toyota Vitz (not Yaris) for about that much, and a 2008 RHD Toyota Vellfire for 23k CAD, along with the usual much larger set of extremely normal domestic market cars
the Vellfire I understand, we don't have that here. why would you import a Vitz and two Fits from (presumably?) Japan when both these cars were sold here with correct-hand-drive and are available used for way cheaper????
