It took a few years for Weird: The Al Yankovic Story to go from a fake trailer to the real deal. I have hope!

My new Dalvey Half Hunter Pocket Watch in Cerulean Blue. It has a 17-crystal Sea-Gull movement, and after doing some digging I think it is the ST3600K. It seems to lose about a minute a day, but watching it is mesmerizing, and it adds a lovely amount of heft to a waistcoat pocket.

I've been carrying a Relic Folio with quartz movement for more than thirty years, but the numbers have started coming off of the dial. I figured it was time for a new one, and this is a gorgeous device!

I tried out Hyprland about three months ago, too. I was enamored for a couple of weeks, and then found out about the toxic community. I switched to i3wm and have been a very happy camper ever since.

I've been a Linux user since '99 when the Windows 2000 beta pissed me off enough that I swore to never return. In all that time, I'd never installed a tiling window manager. It turns out that the tiling WM is what I had found the magic in, not Hyprland itself. As nice as Hyprland looks, it's pretty easy to get 90% of the way there with i3wm. Plus, it has all the functionality, without enabling toxic assholes. If you want to stick with Wayland, Sway is an implementation of i3wm in Wayland that is compatible with all the i3wm config files.
