What I think about it is that I object to you wasting your |
| 6 |
time by submitting bug reports to KDE. It will be a |
| 7 |
net-loss for humanity in the grand scheme of things and the |
| 8 |
long term survival of life forms. |

Because, you'll never get a bug "fixed" with KDE, since, by |
| 11 |
definition, everything that KDE does is a workaround. It's |
| 12 |
just that they speak a different language, very similar to |
| 13 |
English (kde_EN), where "fix" means "workaround". |

Technically, KDE cannot make a "fix" and exist at the same |
| 16 |
time. In other words, the concepts "bug fix" and "KDE |
| 17 |
exists" are mutually exclusive. |

IMO the best thing to do, which is also what I think can be |
| 20 |
called "fix" without unethically redefining words in the |
| 21 |
English language, is to silently unmerge all KDE's fluff, |
| 22 |
and install i3 + dmenu + i3status + i3lock, and call it a |
| 23 |
day. |
