Studying an interesting subject after running into a set of nice Bhajan musical pieces many thirty minutes long played in acoustically fantastic sounding mandirs

This is something I should have known for decades.
TIT (today I taught) myself how to get lolcat permanently on every command that I enter without explicitly calling the pipe.
Syntax
'ssh yourserver port yourlogin|lolcat'
It's so nice to get lolcat on everything!

Linus Torvalds has proper motivated reasons for really disliking file systems without a case sensitivity.
Read this with me from the kernel lkml, regarding bcachefs.
Re: [GIT PULL] bcachefs fixes for 6.15-rc4 - Linus Torvalds

![The image shows a screenshot of an email from the Linux kernel mailing list archive.
The email is from Linus Torvalds, dated Thursday, April 24, 2025, at 21:20:53 -0700. The subject of the email is "Re: [GIT PULL] bcachefs fixes for 6.15-rc4." The email is addressed to Kent Overstreet and includes several CC recipients, including the Linux kernel mailing list.
The email discusses case-insensitive directory fixes and expresses a strong opinion against them. Linus Torvalds states that the only lesson to be learned is that filesystem people never learn, and that case-insensitive names are "horribly wrong" and should not have been implemented in the first place.
The problem, according to Torvalds, was not the lack of testing but the implementation itself.
The email is displayed in a terminal-like interface with a black background and white text, and includes options for search, help, and color settings. The bottom of the screen shows a navigation bar with a home icon, a lock icon, a document icon, and a number "30" in a box, indicating the number of unread messages. The time displayed at the top of the screen is 05:07, and the battery level is at 91%.

'vim'
without any file name is all you need to type in your Bash to see the welcome screen of vim.
Bram Molenaar who created vim on the Commodore Amiga, even tells how you can support Children in Uganda, if you bother to read the help file in its initial headers. The information was updated, for as far as I know, until his departure of life.
I'm currently on mobile otherwise I would have put up in a screenshot
I still need some more feel at home config help. As you can see here I love having vertical gradients on my displays, but in KDE and Vallpaper I have not found how I can set gradients on the side of my wallpaper which are deliberately not 16:9 since I love to look at (vertical) gradients. Where do I need to look to achieve that? Is there a KDE action that I need to define for all my 20 KDE desktops?
.
As you see here I already have configured the minimal amount of users that I need in my K Desktop Environment
The next phase will take a bit of time because I need to fine tune critical small keyboard shortcuts so that they work as transparently as they do in xFace with muscle memory
.
Im starting to achieve platform distro OS translucency regarding more and more projects. Now I can smoothly work in my hugo projects from any distro I want in Linux. All I need to do is keep the copies I work on in sync.
Since I dont run zfs jet on a centralized HDD / SSD I simply use mc -a to do the job manually.
Normally it should be trivial, but the hugo projects want rm -Rf dir otherwise old files with similar size can be changed, thus screwing up continuity
Since my KDE MX install is moothing out in cfg features I need, which is a combo of XFce components and KDE, I can smoothly switch to the KDE distro and work further while I tune it.
I chose to keep XFce seperate from KDE distro wise due to size constraints I;ve put on my boot partition

Linus Torvalds has coded git two decades ago.
Learn about why how who and where here

How can I apply for one for my boxyBSD VM? do I have to contact you on Matrix?
I have KDE on a semi permanent installation on a 2.5" Drive. If you have been following my toots you know at which level I am with it again after a couple of decades
It's nothing in ease of use, compared to my XFce Desktop ENV: where I have all shortcuts I want in muscle memory, however KDE has become much more powerful in the couple of decades I've not looked at it.

As you know Tunnel Brokers does not work for me due to my current network setup without a static pingable IP
I am keenly interested
I've installed the statically linked version. Now I rock the latest version of ffmpeg
This error in MX Linux KDE edition is now annoying
I cant work without ffmpeg and Im NOT going to install a programming ENV: just to build one programma

Who knows a fix apart from compilation?
Let's see if I can make something off this: https://github.com/George-NG/dovecot-maildir-compress/blob/master/dovecot-maildir-compress
I installed #bash as I am too lazy to convert the script to #ksh.
