well there's your problem

Manjaro is actually incredibly janky, especially the way it tests packages for "stability" (read: it doesn't, they just wait 7 days before putting updates on its repositories)

but Pop! OS is still pretty decent despite one single incident where Linus Tech Tips screwed up installing Steam

What's interesting is that Manjaro itself works perfectly fine...

However...

The login screen doesn't boot into display. It's running, because inputting my password boots up the desktop and then everything runs like a dream, but it loses display signal on boot until I enter tty and enter startx or input my password and press enter on the blank screen.

And all I did was have my brother install a 5700XT over the old Nvidia 1060 that was in it. This is on fresh installs, too. :073:

TBH I might just cave and go for Mint, Pop, or Kubuntu, but we'll see. I like the environment of Manjaro, but even on a stable kernel, it's...Touchy.

EDIT: I should mention it's on KDE Plasma 'cause KDE is sick as heck and I love it.

Not because of KDE, but because when you're using THE Ubuntu and not one of its forks, you're subject to being Canonical's guinea pig.

TBH it would give me a different flavor from my Steam Deck, so I'm thinking about it.

...Also, it's kinda funny how janky Arch seems to be (at least Manjaro), when SteamOS is probably like, the most buckled down, stable version of it. I wonder if they ever plan on releasing it to non-Deck users?

yay DC Comics finally killed the Justice League as promised…but in a mostly anticlimatic way…

the entire thing was underwhelming yet hilarious with how quick it ended


bright side is that for a short bit, some new characters can take up comic book panel time, and Brian Michael Bendis is no longer working with DC currently...yay

Watched the latest episode of Moon Knight and whilst Marc's past had been rather tragic from losing his brother that caused his mother to despise him (which was how his alternate alias Steven Grant was created) to Steven ultimately sacrificing himself so that Marc can provide himself with more balance and stability.

This movie still seems like a weird enigma

I'm still unsure how this movie will play out. Still, regardless if it's good or bad, it will hold until June. Lightyear and Jurassic World Dominion World will be released in theaters.

I don't want to talk about how long I searched for sources for this one

DAILY DEMON SHOWCASE

This showcase's demon is of the Jirae race:

1651070509023.png


“I’m Jirae Kawancha. I may be just bones without skin but I still see great!”

Alignment: Neutral-Neutral

Origin: Nepalese mythology. A kawancha is a Newari word for “skeleton” and also refers to sentient skeletons with a long red tongue, roaming around human communities in order to find kids to kidnap and eat. Traditional latticed windows were said to be created to stop them. Kawanchas are on good terms with benevolent house creatures Khyah, who would convince their skeletal friends to stop their wrong ways and keep their home safe.

Skills: Mahama, Slumber Vortex, Diarama, Venom Chaser

Next time, you will meet a demon of the Fallen race.

As per tradition with Nepalese figures, SMT misspells this demon’s name. Kawancha is also portrayed as a disease-causing demon. For a monster that literally eats children, it actually has a kinda cute design. I love its big, cartoony eye and traditional garb. Makes me wish it and Khyah would show up together in more games.
