1. I upgraded pipewire from stable to backports (I want to know ~~if this is related to my problem~~ why essential packages were removed)

2. I suspended the computer, and after resume, the lock screen was broken:

• When I clicked on the password field, the text cursor only appeared for a split second, and I could not type in it
• Clicking on the user switch button on the bottom right corner did nothing
• A few times, the text "Authentication error" randomly appeared for a split second, probably for 1 frame
• No way to reboot the normal way, because I could only use the power menu on the lock screen, which only has suspend

3. I used the power button to reboot, and instead of GNOME, there was darkness

4. I downgraded pipewire to stable

Start-Date: 2024-09-18  15:20:16
Commandline: apt install pipewire/stable
Requested-By: dullbananas (1000)
Downgrade: pipewire:amd64 (1.2.3-1~bpo12+1, 0.3.65-3+deb12u1), pipewire-bin:amd64 (1.2.3-1~bpo12+1, 0.3.65-3+deb12u1), libspa-0.2-modules:amd64 (1.2.3-1~bpo12+1, 0.3.65-3+deb12u1), libpipewire-0.3-modules:amd64 (1.2.3-1~bpo12+1, 0.3.65-3+deb12u1), libpipewire-0.3-0:amd64 (1.2.3-1~bpo12+1, 0.3.65-3+deb12u1)
End-Date: 2024-09-18  15:20:26

5. I ran dpkg --verify and got this output

6. I reinstalled systemd (not sure if this made a difference)

Start-Date: 2024-09-18  15:48:58
Commandline: apt install --reinstall systemd
Requested-By: dullbananas (1000)
Reinstall: systemd:amd64 (252.30-1~deb12u2)
End-Date: 2024-09-18  15:49:02

7. I reinstalled gdm3, and immediately without me doing anything else, there was GNOME instead of darkness

Start-Date: 2024-09-18  15:51:49
Commandline: apt install --reinstall gdm3
Requested-By: dullbananas (1000)
Install: gnome-remote-desktop:amd64 (43.3-1, automatic), gnome-shell:amd64 (43.9-0+deb12u2, automatic), power-profiles-daemon:amd64 (0.12-1+b1, automatic), gdm3:amd64 (43.0-3), gstreamer1.0-pipewire:amd64 (0.3.65-3+deb12u1, automatic), chrome-gnome-shell:amd64 (42.1-3, automatic), gnome-session:amd64 (43.0-1+deb12u1, automatic), gnome-browser-connector:amd64 (42.1-3, automatic), gnome-shell-extension-prefs:amd64 (43.9-0+deb12u2, automatic)
Remove: tlp:amd64 (1.5.0-2), tlp-rdw:amd64 (1.5.0-2)
End-Date: 2024-09-18  15:52:05

8. End of class

9. I reinstalled tlp because installing gdm3 removed it

10. After selecting an app search result, instead of a new window opening, an existing window was focused, and this led to me discovering that my built-in extensions were gone

11. While writing this post, I got the idea of using the list of removed packages in the apt history log output from apt install libpipewire-0.3-0/bookworm-backports to see what packages to install again, so I did that, then I also had to uninstall firefox-esr again

12. I rebooted, and my built-in extensions and other stuff were resurrected, so now I have full redemption

13. Another Window Session Manager restored my windows in a way that pissed me off

(Failed attempts of recovery are not listed)

Edit: actually I made the mistake 1 minute before the start of class

(this is not an endorsement of donald trump)

Roller-skating, in-line skating and skateboarding on the property are rituals to summon Steve Jobs.

Riders are expected to treat other passengers with respect and courtesy, even if they develop proprietary software.

As implied by the Unix philosophy, the property is only good for transportation, not for spitting, defecating, or urinating. Entering any Valley Metro vehicle or property with clothing containing blood, urine, vomit, defecation, or anything else with proprietary DNA is also prohibited.

Litter is bloat.

Commercial or Ubuntu-size carts, recumbent bikes, handcarts or bicycle trailers on board a transit vehicle are bloat, unless collapsed.

The ghost of Steve Jobs fears people with tops, bottoms and footwear.

You are bloat if you take up more than one seat. Saving or “holding” seats is a Microsoft salute.
