    Also as a life long programmer, I have this feeling it is possible to just go in and make some changes so I can have the system just make shit up about the TPM while indeed also doing the equivalent of having system-d decide to respond with random bullshit.

    Don’t even need to be a programmer, just find a community of them that you trust that distribute their own “fixes”.

    Definitely not doing that with anything else because its both hidden in compilation and buried like herpes across multiple components. Probably/hopefully not directly related but I really want to know what they changed to break the clipboard service.

      And you’d be technically correct, the best kind of correct.

      To the inquisitor:

      any distro that’s fully OSS can be fully compiled from scratch with any modifications you choose).

      Though yes, if you’re still using Windows, the learning curve may look like a wall.

      Guessing the X11 [X]Wayland migration KDE Plasma bug report? Should be fixed in 6.5.2.
