CW: Rant or something like that; on the state of Linux desktop, if nothing else, ostensibly. However you or anyone else use a computer/phone/whatever-else is none of my business and therefore not a hill I would enjoy dying on. If you would like to disagree, you sure can, and that's fine and we're both wrong anyway.
@plutarch I don't understand every term in this rant of yours, but I think I understand enough to recognize why fundamentally we agree on this concept & why so much feels so wrong.
If anything close to sense & safety gets done on my home repair/remodeling effort set, within another 18 months, beyond full recognition of the terms I don't now, I'll have a #Linux or other #OpenSource operating system or systems on a functional desktop computer or 2 in my home, they likely staying in 1 or 2 nooks of my house. On them will be the simplest setups I can find because I too believe computers are tools not lifestyle foci nevermind centers of life.
One of the best features in my old house is the plaster walls, which make wifi signals travel like smoke in a house that's a chimney.... so beyond my directly having the "smart home " feature set removed from their automatic inclusion in the upgrades & rewiring of the house, I enjoy the fact that internet & in turn computer access in my home exists but is & will remain contained.

I got the idea of painting birds on the Garagarchive doors from Pinterest. Luckily I've taken hundreds of Cardinal pictures to choose from. #home #homeimprovement #homeimprovements #painting #mural #murals #outdoorart #outdoorarting #art #artist #arting #makingart #civicart #largeart #cardinal #cardinals #bird #birds #birding #birdwatching #birdwatcher #birdwatchers #birder #birders #project #doityourself #doityourselfproject #workingathome #painting #housepaint #fern #ferns #bostonfern

Another day for the kitchen remodel project. Here’s hoping it’s the last day.
They are doing some touch up work on things that have otherwise been finished. They are hanging some stuff on top of the tile. They are doing a little painting.
I think that’s all that’s left to do. Once they are done we have to clean up any dust they left behind and then wash all of the dishes that have been sitting out collecting dust over the last week and then find a new home for everything in the new cabinet/storage setup.
I am so ready for this project to be over. I want my house back again.
Unrelated note… I used my good camera to take today’s photo a day picture. I will post it now for no reason at all.

The last time we had a home improvement project done was about a year ago when we had new windows installed. When the project started we were so excited. After a few days without the project being completed our mood changed and the whole thing just became super frustrating. We wanted it to be over so that we could have our house back again.
We expected the kitchen remodel project we’re currently involved with to take ages. The contractor told us he would have everything installed by the end of the second day. Then we needed walls patched and tile work done, plumbing work, and touch up and paint work.
The tile guy got here yesterday around 8:00am. He left a little before 10:00pm. It was around 8:30pm or so when the mood for this project changed again. We just crossed some invisible line between excitement and frustration. It’s is totally unfair to the contractors because we are still in their estimated window of how long it would take to finish everything. It doesn’t matter. It’s all just stress now, no more excitement.
The tile guy is coming back today. The plumber is coming too. It’s 9:26am and we haven’t heard from either of them yet, but we aren’t expecting to until after 10:00. IKEA was just here picking up some of the things we need to return to them. There is a mountain more stuff that needs to be returned. We aren’t sure if we can get them to come back or not. I expect we’ll be driving down there one of these days soon. We also need to book a junk pick up because there’s a lot of stuff that needs to be removed still. We also need to clean off all of the dust that is covering everything before we use anything in our new kitchen.
I’m stressing out. We’re stressing out. It’s starting to be difficult.
I went to Home Depot this morning to pick up some stuff for the tile guy. Pics from the drive home… because.

Right before leaving for our vacation, I tried to run a load of dishes, but the dishwasher errored out. Since there wasn’t time to fix it before we left, I just left myself a note to fix it when I got back. The filter isn’t super accessible, so I used a waterpik to spray the sediment out. The joys of an old house.
