Bspwm, but MATE has been my go-to for years

Some doc ock ahit

No, I didn’t plug it in initially, but I also didn’t plug it in when it started, until I saw that the battery was low

Yeah, it kinda does. Idk what they’re thinking, lol

Idk, I don’t think they’re trying to kill downstreams. IMHO, they’re just cleaning things up. Why should the RHEL source be in the CentOS repos?

Maybe sitting unplugged for months worked as a hard reset? ¯\_ (ツ) _/¯

AFAIK, the source is still available with a free Developer License from Red Hat. Still annoying AF, though.

Good advice 👍

No, it was unplugged. It was fully charged when I thought I bricked it, and it was at 9% when it booted again. That makes me think it was running in some way, but the system time was still at the same date…
