Added Alacritty config and TERMINAL variable.
Now I know Thomas is gonna get really pissy that I'm not using st, but
frankly I don't give a shit what he thinks. What Thomas doesn't realise
is that his way is not the best way. There are no best ways, just better
ways.

        Sure, st is a good terminal, but I'm literally using Alacritty to
type this message, and I like it. It is easy to configure and has GPU
acceleration which makes it fast enough to literally watch a 360p video in
text mode (possibly more, didn't test much since it already wiped st off
the face of the planet). "aLAcRitTY is bLOaT" shut. the. fuck. up. If
you cared about bloat that much you'd be using Artix, or better yet,
NixOS. Instead, you're using a distro that literally stores 2 copies of
every package you download and the 20 billion dependencies that come
with it. You regularly bitch about how many dependencies KDE has but you
haven't stopped to look at your own dependency clusterfuck.

        KDE is a perfectly fine desktop with plenty of features built in
fully configured for your enjoyment (if you couldn't tell from my
dotfiles its not my favorite, but I'll definitely admit to using KDE
when I'm feeling lazy on a new install). You're probably going to say that
its bloat because of that, but you clearly don't give a shit because
you're still on vanilla Arch.

        Part of the Linux experience is being able to pick and choose
your own experience. Maybe some don't want to use a tiling window
manager. Sure, its more efficient once you get to know it, but not
everyone is capable of learning the drastically different workflow that
comes with TWMs/DWMs. Maybe they don't have the days, possibly weeks to
setup everything to a usable state. Maybe they just want a computer that
works.

        Now, I do get pretty pissed if you complain about problems that
come with your choice of Linux lifestyle and A. Don't do anything to
address them or B. Blame something else. Ex. Clay regularly complains
about "Wine crashes all the time and has poor compatability". This was
probably true back in Wine 2.0 when Clay was probably not even alive,
but times have changed. Furthermore, I come to find out that the
problems he is having either exist on Windows (ex. Into the Breach
maximize button being useless) or are because of his WM
(he uses Linux Mint Cinnamon btw).

        What I'm trying to say is, Thomas, be more open. Just because
someone uses KDE doesn't mean that they're not good enough to setup i3.
And to anyone else reading this, find what works best for you. I'm not
saying to completely ignore what other people prefer, but don't just do
something because someone on the internet told you to. Experiment with
new things and refine what already works for you.

        Sorry about the rant. But hey, now that you're at the bottom,
how about giving alacritty a try? If you're on Arch just go over to your
local neighborhood terminal and smack your keyboard in a fashion that
inputs `sudo pacman -S alacritty` into it (or use
whatever pacman wrapper you want, I don't care). Feel free to steal my
alacritty dotfiles too (although they're kinda basic) (if you are Thomas
though you won't like the fonts since you care too much about what fonts
people use). More information can be found on their Github page
