hurt my job skills.

Hi all I have a DWA-131 Rev E
It (seems) to use a Realtek 8192eu. I googled and read mapages but I
couldn't find an answer.
I'm on OpenBSD/amd64 and running -current
*Dmesg:*
OpenBSD 6.3-current (GENERIC.MP) #98: Thu Jul 5 12:52:45 MDT 2018
Thanks!
Are there any plans to support this adapter? I'll donate my adapter if it
would help.

This configuration rocks, both of them. I love FVWM.
I think FVWM should dropped as the default WM, its old and clunky. I think
it should be twm.

The GUI verses command line arguments are as old as time itself, or close
to it. What constitutes a great desktop experience is a matter of taste,
whatever works for you may not work for someone else. Not one desktop or
GUI will fit everyone; use whats best for you and live your own computer
life.

I use OpenBSD as my daily driver as my desktop OS. It really is the easiest
OS I've ever used because of the wealth of documentation, everything is in
the man pages, with examples, plus so many resources on the web. When I use
any other OS I am always amazed how complicated they are.

You can copy the system.fvwm2rc to /home/.fvwm and edit the root menu to
launch your apps.
But barring that, I just use firefox & in a terminal

I use OpenBSD because it can do everything I want it to do and it’s easy to
use.

Perl is my favorite language, too. Perl can be gnarly but I love it. I have
zero experience with Lua so I can’t judge it but I’d like Perl to stay in
Base.

I use the default fvwm, I just make the fonts bigger. If you want to see
the default fvwm in action only made prettier and more functional, check
this out. Everything they did comes in the base install:

I'm on OpenBSD AMD64 7.1, fresh install
I noticed when adding fonts via pkg_add it no longer prints out "You may
wish to" after installation is finished.
is this a bug, or a feature?
Ah, I guessed it was a feature now and I like it, it just threw me the
first time.
