Maybe get rid of blackbox *ducks* . Is that even actively developed any more?
While I don't use blackbox, I don't see why it should be removed. To be honest, I don't know why MWM (Motif Window Manager) is installed. It is butt-ugly and I haven't a clue how to properly customize it - even though I haven't finished reading the man pages for it. To be honest, like in another thread I have posted - the one thing that truly does annoy me about Slackware now, and I do legit wish it would be changed - is the installation options, "MENU" and "EXPERT" - as they are exactly the same; so having both is redundant - so maybe one should be removed, or again the very least have the output for either MENU or EXPERT changed to terse.

In some circles I know, that would be grounds for a fork (and not the spoon kind either). Anyone up to starting another thread about this very topic?
In Torment there is sensorium (public). In one of sensory stones there is experience of total boredom. It is total that guy experiencing it started to jab his eye with a pen. Quite an experience. Let us create our own sensory stones coming from experience of taking part in this thread. Am I still alive?

I could, but I also brought up the very same issue in the --Current Request thread, so I don't know if I should create yet another thread about it; unless there is more interest about it.

Make sure you sanitize those sensory stones first. For a better all round sensory experience I prefer the fork in the eye...especially when I see certain names as OP's

Go for it - doesn't hurt. What's the worst that can happen?
Thanks. My first (9th Feb.) was AstraZeneca, so I presume the second will be, too.
I had my second yesterday. Pfizer both times.

Why do men have nipples, anyway?
Because having a sex-based program for creating them in women only would be a waste of biological energy. Sex differences exist where they benefit one sex or the other; men wouldn't particularly benefit from not having nipples.

Oh yeah, MWM, totally forgot about that. I would actually dump that before blackbox. MWM seems redundant with TWM. I guess you could also argue that blackbox is redundant with fluxbox.
But for the last couple of years, KDE5 is a bottleneck.
Again, this is your guess. I think it's wrong and PAM was the biggest bottleneck, but we don't know without Pat telling us.

Not that I'm questioning the numbers, but how is this "easily checked"? Since Slackware doesn't do any sort of tracking within the distro, there's no way to know how many people have installed it or where they hang out.

If the shot requires 2 doses, I'm pretty sure it needs to be the same brand. My wife and parents all got Pfizer. Once I became eligible, everything was super booked out and I got lazy trying to find a local place with an opening. I'll probably wait until the initial rush has died down as I'm not in an environment that's likely to spread the virus (hopefully this will allow people in customer facing roles to get it quicker).
