I’m not moving any goalposts at all. I’m expressing how inexperience and bad assumptions can make one’s searching unfruitful through no fault of their own. That’s all I’ve ever been saying.

Ah, you made an edit. Yeah, “kde login rotation” does, but “EndeavourOS login rotation” gives you no results mentioning SDDM. Giving people the benefit of the doubt costs you nothing over assuming that they’re lazy, and the added bonus is that you don’t sound like a jerk.

That’s totally the biggest problem with the internet. And definitely deploying self-important moderaptors is the way to fix it.

/s, of course. Get off your high horse.

Yes. I would assume that the problem is in X11 or Wayland before thinking it could be SDDM, frankly. But even then, googling “Linux login screen” doesn’t immediately reveal SDDM to be the point of concern.

Well, there was zero effort documented in the post.

You’re not their teacher. It’s not your job to decide how much effort they’ve put forth, or to grade whether or not that is sufficient.

Take a look at Ubuntu trying to teach newcomers how to ask a question.

And if they documented their research process, you’d say “tldr just ask the question.” Stop trying to be paternalistic and gatekeepy. Just answer or don’t.

I don’t know about other people, but it’s way easier to google something than to ask a question and then wait for the answer. I’m not OP, but if I’ve asked a question, it’s only because I’ve exhausted my ability to find the answer on its own.

How do you think the OP is supposed to know that “SDDM” is the issue to look up? You don’t get to enforce another person’s effort. If all you want to provide is "you’re looking for ‘SDDM,’ that would provide help and empower them without sounding like you’re biting the newbie for not knowing everything.

This sort of passive-aggressive “help” feels like a relic of the early 2010s we could do without.

Mission accomplished, I guess

It’s time we take seditionists out of the Sheriff’s Departments.

Maybe not exactly the same thing, but I have had pretty heavy Minecraft building binges that leave me looking at IRL buildings thinking, “huh, I wonder how I’d build that in Minecraft. Obviously I could put a full block there, but that detail would be sub-block, so maybe I could imply that with a chiseled variant…and that’s brick, but it’s a dark and weathered red brick, so I guess I’d have to use…maybe terracotta? And dang, that curved archway would be murder to recreate accurately, this building might need to be at 1:1.5 scale to even do it justice…”

Well, I think the word “barren” is a little bit more ambiguous, but generally “fallow” implies that it could be used, but isn’t; while “barren” means that it couldn’t be used for any productive purpose (specifically any agricultural purpose). In other words, land could be temporarily fallow but used again later, but would likely require remediation or even engineering to make productive if it’s barren.

Fertilizer does provide some help, but cover crops and crop rotation is still necessary. Anhydrous ammonia and ammonium nitrate don’t replenish everything that crops take out of the ground (really just nitrogen); and even if it did, it’s really expensive.

There’s definitely not a /fill command.

Glad you enjoyed it!

Too much effort for these stupid “ideas”. Of it were a child, explain it like you did, but I presume it isn’t. So let me explain it: No.

How profoundly arrogant to presume to tell me what to do or not to do with my own time. I’ll use my time how I like, thank you very much.

And it wasn’t wasted time. I learned things, I produced something, I had fun doing it. I may have even educated others.

Get off your high horse. What you did in posting a complaint about the effort I expended was way more useless than what I did.

I’m aware of that land use need, but actually most farmers use crop rotation to fulfill that need. You plant a crop that depletes phosphorus one year, and then one that restores it the next year. Obviously that’s oversimplified, but actually letting land lie fallow isn’t as critical anymore in a more diverse agricultural world.

Besides, letting land lie fallow is agricultural use, as you’re restoring the land for later growing seasons. That, iirc, is why the word “idle” is included on the map alongside “fallow;” true fallowing would be included in the agriculture regions.

My understanding is that they need an acre each specifically to prevent overgrazing, but I could be mistaken there.

Whoa whoa whoa! The world is already in rough enough shape without you creating pivot tables

American gumption sneers at the laws of physics!
