Re: ChatGPT: Okay or Nay?
The main drawback of Linux is that portable programs do not seem to be compatible with it. As my business involves a lot of travel, I constantly transfer all my D:/ drive from desktop to laptop and conversely, and that way I can use portable versions of my browser, my email client, my file manager,...

They wouldn´t. But someone might have packaged an all in one cursor theme that is cross-platform and could be used on Windows or Linux. Yaru preinstalled with Mint covers all bases. I have no idea why, maybe something to do with Ubuntu running as the Windows Linux Subsystem, or the other formats can...

Re: Any benefit to ramdisk?
Its nothing to worry about and its not duplication, and its not taking up space. It is just a weird symlink pointing to the parent directory added by the x11-common package. It is there for some decades old backwards compatibility reason*, and about once every couple of years someone notices it and ...

Re: Looking for better live wallpaper program
Still looks horribly slow. I'm intrigued. I will have a mess around with it sometime.

Re: Looking for better live wallpaper program
I do not have an alternative but the application is just a bash script so easily amended. I think the function that you want to look at is here.
