A better inner-life is possible without intermixing it with intangible hocus pocus. Calling something "spiritual" or retracting to it beeing "culture" is often used as protection against criticism and I see you do it here. Something can be culture and still be criticized or called out for what it actually is. Slavery has been part of pretty much every culture at some point. Would you call me arrogant when I say it's still inhumane and criminal behaviour? And thats what I do. It's been culture for centuries, but all the time, it was also "taking drugs, feeling like beeing part of something bigger charged with magical thinking".

edit: All you say about spirituality can be said about religion. It helps people and gives them purpose and has been culture for thousands of years. Yet, you say

religion is a cancer

Isn't that way more disrespectful, dismissive and arrogant that what I am doing? Whats your measure here?

Spirituality, even more than religion, is some broadly used word for all kinds of stuff like healing crystals, zodiac signs etc. A sense of belonging can come from many things, that doesn't make it true or good per se. What you are describing is drug use. Spirituality may sound better for you, but it's just bullshit for drug use. I'm not judging, but it is what it is.

Two piles of the same bullshit.

Because the number one question on literally any Linux related tech question is: "What are your specs?" And a neofetch covers big parts of that.

People do this all the time.

I was not satisfied with Plasma because I would have different window styles etc. With Plasma 6 I removed all themes and all the shit and customized it with builtin features only. It looks so nice and clean and just works like a charm.

Tbf: What else does one expect when buying a Ubisoft Game?

Ubisoft has been the absolute peak asshole game company for over 15 years now.

You're absolute right with the random repos. Yet, when I started a year ago, I was pretty new to the whole linux thing and allowed myself some experimenting.

[–] xtapa@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 7 months ago

Wow, thats really elaborate. Thanks so much!

Yeah I'm really happy about some really good answers to my problem. This is my first non-experimental long used Linux system and when I started a year ago, I was experimenting with some stuff and added some repos that were recommended in some videos and blogs. And now I feel the pain of not keeping the count low :D Learning through pain is a real thing here.

Oh I didn't know about the priority system. That might help. I guess I'll try to figure out, if I need the wolfi repo in the first place and remove it if possible and in addition add OpenSUSE as a vendor of higher prio to avoid similar issues in the future.
