      The Worm *works* ... but I really do NOT like it.   
      Changes TOO many things to NO obvious purpose.   
      I fear Deb has been compromised by Canonical   
      thinking ....... if this continues I may have   
      to go to Arch or even Slack or - horrors -   
      BSDs.   
      
      Linux should not be "Popular" shit ... it should   
      be staid and solid and consistent.   
      
      Got a Pi5 coming ... it's gonna be for "multi-   
      media" (streaming) stuff. I've got Worm/PI   
      ready for it ... but might NOT stick with it.   
      VERY disappointed in Deb now.
