• I like both overlapping windows and a sort of tiling

  I use kwin-rectangle extension to bring the hotkeys used by Rectangle on MacOS onto my Linux machines

  That way I can stack things, or I can use hotkeys to send the active window to a static tiled position/size. I’m a particular fan of thirds on my ultrawide

• In a perfect world, operating totally on my local network I’d love if my fridge and freezer took pictures of things as I was putting them in and taking them out to automatically maintain an inventory. If it didnt require external servers, it really could be great. Hell, even if it gave me the option of local execution it could be great.

  But this is the real world and we can’t gave nice things. This should never have been a failure mode at all. If the computer in these things decides to stop working, it takes fairly few things make it run like a dumb fridge. They just decided that was unacceptable, so here we are.

  I have similar feelings about washers and dryers. I’d love to hook it up to my mqtt broker and get local notifications when it finishes. But there is zero reason whatsoever for it to reach the internet.
