It's a deal!

I grew up riding, and had quite a few spills myself, so I'm good.

I cracked my collar bone once and went for over a week in excruciating pain, because I didn't want to tell my parents. I was lying in the floor one day shortly thereafter...moving my arm round-and-round to see if I could work the pain away. Suddenly, there was a loud CRACK. My mother asked what the sound was...

I had broken the collar bone that was cracked.

I have a permanent lump on it, because according to the doctor, the cracked bone had been trying to heal before I completely broke it.

EDIT: @HoaS...not hevidevi

I clicked the link.

So...I'm just to believe all of that scientific mumbo-jumbo is true?

By the way, I've worked in a scientific field for over 25 years, so I'm poking fun at myself.

One thing I've learned...scientists are human too. Just like workers in any field, some of them lie, cheat, steal, take shortcuts, and falsify data...but the people receiving the results have faith in the information obtained.

...and don't get me started on medical doctors and healthcare...

Anyway...please don't tell me that you believe some guy named Linus Torvalds wrote the code for the kernel used in what we know as GNU/Linux.

I know, I know...there is some guy alive today who goes by the name of Linus Torvalds, and people credit him for the kernel...but did you physically watch him write that code? Do you just accept that he wrote it by faith?

...and getting him to testify that he is Linus Torvalds and he wrote the code won't convince me, because I didn't see him write it. All the people who would testify that he wrote it won't convince me either, because people lie...and he could have paid them off.

In fact, as far as I know, this Manchurian Candidate known as Linus Torvalds is a pawn...created by a bunch of people who have their own agenda to cause divisiveness in whether it should be called GNU/Linux or just Linux...and it only shows that they will stop at nothing to push their agenda.

So go ahead and drink the koolaid...

By the way...I believe in Santa Claus. Sure...I can't prove that he's real, but you can't prove that he's not.

Wha'the?

So now we've moved to earth rotation?

Can you meet me here in Florida and personally prove to me that the earth rotates? Don't bring any science books or scientific journals.  Just sit me down and show me that it rotates.

...and that weird light in the sky is Ra.

I'd almost be willing to wager that you believe that Napoleon was a real person...even though you can't prove it.

Wha'the?

Okay...I'll play Devil's Advocate for the fun of it...

Have you ever personally witnessed planet earth moving around the sun? I will go out on a llimb here and venture to say that you haven't...that you've never taken a trip into space far enough out in order to see (for yourself) that planet earth does indeed move around the sun...

...or...

...do you accept that belief by faith?

Faith in what you've learned from others.

Faith in what you learned from books.

Faith in what others have taught you to believe to be true.

How can you personally verify that it's true?

As far as we can attest, there's this bright light that appears in the sky each morning, and it disappears later in the evening.

In fact, how do you know that there was a person named George Washington...who is ascribed as being "the father of our nation"...the "first President of the United States"?

Did you ever witness him for yourself, or do you accept that he existed and that his exploits are true by faith?

Faith in what you learned from others.

Faith in what you learned from books.

Faith in what others have taught you to be true.

...and don't point to history books. After all, human beings are notorious liars and history can be falsified. We can only put our faith in this story about this supposed man called George Washington...and hope that some shifty people didn't make it all up because they thought it would make a good story.

And don't point to paintings of him. Paintings only prove that an artist painted something...well...unless you were alive to see George Washington pose for said paintings.

And don't point to signatures of him. All that proves is someone signed that name. Signatures are easily and often forged.

And don't point to his image on bills and coins. All that proves is that some guy's image is on them.

Truth be known, you weren't alive centuries ago to verify if Washington actually existed and did the things ascribed to him.

How do you know that the person (and history) of George Washington is true if you didn't live back then and verify it for yourself?

I would venture to say that you accept George Washington by faith.

...n'stuff

...but that's okay. I won't make fun of you for believing in him even though you can't prove that he existed.

You win...you definitely win. 

Let me explain further...

First, I truly appreciate your obmenu-generator .deb package. It makes it easy to install for others.

However, it only takes a few commands to install it from trizen...which I give on my rinky-dink website.

It's the method that I prefer.

I will readily admit that I haven't tried your .deb package in a few years, so what I'm about to say may no longer be the case...

However, the last time I tried your .deb package, It brought in a lot more dependencies than what was required for installing it straight from trizen's github and using cpanminus. It also put extra files in some places than installing it straight from trizen's github and using cpanminus.

Using the trizen/cpanminus method, the menu will normally continue to work unless there is a major update to perl...which is why manyroads lost the menu.

The command I gave updates the necessary perl module.

...but that's my preference.

If a user would prefer to use your .deb file, that's perfectly fine with me.

However, I will still prefer the trizen/cpanminus method.

Looks beautiful! Thanks for sharing it!

I realize you're probably not using openbox in addition to dwm and i3, but f you ever want to fix that broken obmenu-generator menu...

1 - Open the terminal and enter the following command as root (su or sudo)...

cpanm Linux::DesktopFiles

2 - If no icons are showing in the menu after that, enter the following command in the terminal (DO NOT use su or sudo)...

obmenu-generator -p -i

3 - Log out and log back in.

Seems like I recall 7.0.x.x.x getting a lot of complaints in the past.

Perhaps try the backports version? It's newer...almost the version that's in Ceres.

I don't know Ron. Sorry.

Perhaps it is, but if it is, perhaps it has a "sleep" command of 60 seconds before it engages?

I'll defer to MATE experts here...

HOORAY!!!
