So. After deleting and rebuilding my `ESP`partition I don't even know how many times and trying out so many different ways of setting up either #rEFind or #GRUB and messing with the `mkinitcpio.d/linux.preset` files, I finally got my original #Arch partition and new #Artix partition booting.
I could not, for the life of me, figure out how to segregate the Arch and Artix boot loaders and initramfs. But since they appear to be the same, both being Arch under the hood...

... like I have a much better understanding of the files and folders and how it works. But I'm struggling to figure something out, hence the bsod.
#Artix is #Arch based, so if I install Artix to another partition and then setup boot for Artix, it takes over the initramfs. I thought, based on my reading, that I could customize the path or initramfs name in the `/etc/mkinitcpio.d/linux.preset` file, which does what I expected, but then doesn't boot, bsod.
So, I must be missing some piece here.

After a couple weeks, I found some customization to the KDE desktop environment that make me like it quite a bit better than the default configuration.
The key to this customization is a program called 'cortile' while brings features of a tiling window manager to X11 desktop environments.
The second is binding a keyboard shortcut to the "Overview" feature in KDE. By default, the Overview is activated by the top left 'hot corner', which I found by accident.
I want to focus on one window at a time and not have to worry about its position. Setting 'cortile' to the Maximized setting and the Panel Configuration Visibility to 'Dodge Windows' gives me what I was looking for.
The Overview is now tied to a keyboard shortcut and acts like rofi would, as a window and virtual desktop switcher, as well as an application launcher.
In KDE System Settings, keyboard shortcuts can be configured for switching virtual desktops and moving windows between virtual desktops. It is a bit fiddly and takes quite a bit of time to figure it out, but KDE does not disappoint with with how much it can be customized.
I think this concept and integration of cortile would also work well in the Cinnamon desktop environment (haven't yet tried it), though Cinnamon may not quite the same feature as KDE Overview.

Here's the MATE desktop on top of Artix Linux. It is installed on a ThinkCentre Tiny M700.
This is the computer for this week's RetroEdge.Tech Computer Giveaway.
One thing that I do not like about MATE (and therefore the old Gnome2) is that there is very little keyboard control of the desktop environment. The 'super' key does not launch the Start Menu. Ctrl+Alt+t does not launch a terminal, et cetera.
Perhaps adding rofi on top of MATE would be a good blend of old and better keyboard control.

This #Arch install I just can't kill.
So after like two attempted struggles of installing #Artix, I realized that I had actually downloaded the ISO I was using some months ago. I was having issues getting connected to the mirrors. So I downloaded the recent stable ISO. That seemed to correct that issue... but then it was I think a pacman keyring issue I had. So I downloaded the latest weekly ISO, and boom. Finally success.
Except I hosed up my boot partition. A chroot, fix fix. All good again.

My wife has certainly moved a bit more towards being techy and geeky since we first met. But not so much that I could meaningfully explain to her why I don't want to use systemd, the pump I got from recovering my #Arch install the other night after deleting the wrong partition and having to revert a failed migration attempt to #Artix where I had already blown away #Systemd, or why I'm attempting to use #FreeBSD as my daily driver on my laptop now.

Bye bye #ArchLinux. Hello #Artix then.

This stupid political behavior is just going to push more people to Artix Linux.
You can't blacklist an entire project just because one dev has voiced controversial views. There would be a lot less software around if this rule was applied equally to all projects, as dev's being borderline probably goes with the job description.
Thanks Alad! /s

The “init system” that sold you out: #systemd
#linux
Resist #Ageverification, stop the digital #prison and use #sysVinit like #GrapheneOS #MXLinux #Artix #PCLinuxOS etc.

On using Artix as a server and the question of autoupdates:

Debian on my server has been replaced with Artix Linux / Dinit.
IMHO Artix is a damn good system and what Arch should have been.
Installing Gophernicus is slightly different, I've detailed this here:

Going to be doing a fresh installation of Artix Linux with KDE (and i3wm) on my ThinkPad daily driver T470s laptop.
The batteries are a pain in the T470s, so I do not recommend it unless you are willing to live with that issue. The regular T470 is a much better laptop as far as the batteries and memory upgrades go.
But I have a T470s and I am (mostly) willing to live with the battery issues.
Use what you have!

There should be a word for the peculiar discomfort of running a Linux distro while already knowing the one you're going to switch to, but can't yet due to having to make sure everything is backed up.

Dylan "I read the law and I'm here to implement it" M. Tylor gets up in the morning and decides to write age verification code that he himself calls "hilariously pointless and ineffective", within a week strikes 4 repos off his list, and i bet the Linux Kernel is going to be next (I'm joking... mostly)
It's worth noting that the first people who approved the PR on systemd repo are 2 big tech employees - Mircoslop and Redhat/IBM (why I'm i not surprised!!), someone then opened a revert PR, Lennart Poettering (systemd creator) closed it.. thus blocking the removal
And this is why you now have Liberated Systemd, a fork of systemd without Age verification.. which IS 'hilariously pointless and ineffective' at saving children
when engineers starts reading the law like a specification, this is what you get.. useful idiots.

Honestly.. at first i was surprised (and disappointed) at some major Linux distributions not having a clear answer to age verification laws after weeks of their announcement, but then lots of them started discussing them. really! discussing them! what's there to be discussed?
"maybe we can implement age checks in a privacy respecting manner? 👉👈"
And it's just so happens this serves the corporation that you work for best interests! Big tech "Foss devs" have a clear conflict of interest here

Not just Ageless Linux.. shoutout to @artixlinux for sticking to the free & open source software principles, I'm making the switch very very soon (to #artix :artix: )
we're living in a time where our current actions dictate what things would be like for the future generations, if you think a local checkbox (are you above 18?) is harmless, you should know that it's not about the checkbox!
things become much worse when you comply, next thing: VPNs, next: take a guess! you get the idea
