They don't despawn. Also, enemies are not simulated when you're past a certain distance away from them (not very far at all considering how big the map is) so even if you wait it out a few in-game days it'll be right where it was if you try to portal back in

As to who that person should be, I’m not really sure
This right here is the crux of how the dems fucked up so, so badly. Why they went into this election season without even attempting to run anybody aside from Biden I'll never know. All that it's reaped is all us know of not knowing anybody else and the federal party managers seem to be just as clueless (generally clueless, yes, but especially and specifically clueless here)

It's weird to me that you think I think that. I do primarily browse files by terminal, but not always. Before I got into heavy terminal use I was a power user of Nemo. In any case, dumping everything in /home does not make for a better gui file browsing experience, either

Someone asking a question doesnt merit the insult of saying they “would never ask if they used a terminal.” I have no particular dog in this fight, but not being a dick isn’t that hard.
This is true, and something that I'm working on. For some reason my brain is uncharitable in these situations and I interpret it not as a simple question but a sarcastically hostile put down in the form of a question. In this case, "Why would you be dumb and not just put things in /home". That really is a silly interpretation of the OP question, so I apologize.
As to using this standard, just because this is your preferred standard, doesnt mean its the only standard.
Sure, but the OP was essentially asking "Why isn't dumping everything into a user's /home the standard? Why are you advocating for something different?"
Based on their own description, they aren’t even an official standard, just one in “very active” use.
There are a LOT of "unofficial standards" that are very impactful. System D can be considered among those. The page you link to does talk about a lot of specifications, but it also says that a lot of them are already under the XDG specification or the reason for XDG is to bring such a scheme under a single specification, i.e. XDG.
So why this, specifically? Just because its what you’re already doing?
- yes I do use it, so I am definitely biased in that regard
- it bring a bunch of disparate mostly abandoned specification into a single, active one
- it's the active specification that has learned from past attempts

But what’s the difference?
I can only imagine someone asking this if they a) don't use the terminal except if Stackexchange says they should and b) have yet to try and cleanup a system that's acquired cruft over a few years. If you don't care about it, then let me flip that around and ask why you care if people use XDG? The people who care about it are the people in the spaces that concern it.
Off the top of my head this matters because:
- it's less clutter, especially if you're browsing your system from terminal
- it's a single, specified place for user specific configs, session cache, application assets, etc. Why wouldn't such important foundational things required for running apps not be in a well defined specification? Why just dump it gracelessly in the user's root folder outside of pure sloppy laziness?
- it makes uninstalling apps easier
- it makes maintenance easier
- it makes installing on new machines easier
It’ll be in /home anyways and I heard BSD had some issues with something that could be XDG.

It's so exquisitely stupid to deploy an unproven and very-well-known-to-fuck-up solution at this kind of scale and importance. It really drives home how science and technology communication are crucial and that the recent hype around "AI" (what a fucking misuse of the phrase; it's a very complex weighted plinko board) was criminally negligent.

[Here's the official documentation](https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/mapping/#modal-mappings) on configuring `kitty`'s modal mappings. I made this to explore its uses but also because sometimes my fingers trigger the wrong reflex macro and I accidentally change my layout or alter the window size. This guards against that by literally guarding that behavior behind a key combo that puts me into the express context for altering my window/tab layout and arrangement. To not clutter up your main config, I recommend saving this to its own file and using the `include` directive to bring it in. EDIT: learned that you can map the combo that enters the mode to get out of the mode [kitty-mode-window-tab-arrangement (WTA)](https://pastebin.com/rSD46dh4): ``` map --new-mode WTA kitty_mod+space>kitty_mod+space map --mode WTA kitty_mod+space>kitty_mod+space pop_keyboard_mode map --mode WTA esc pop_keyboard_mode map --mode WTA ctrl+c pop_keyboard_mode # Windows #navigation map --mode WTA h neighboring_window left map --mode WTA a neighboring_window left map --mode WTA left neighboring_window left map --mode WTA j neighboring_window down map --mode WTA s neighboring_window down map --mode WTA down neighboring_window down map --mode WTA k neighboring_window up map --mode WTA w neighboring_window up map --mode WTA up neighboring_window up map --mode WTA l neighboring_window right map --mode WTA d neighboring_window right map --mode WTA right neighboring_window right map --mode WTA f focus_visible_window #resize map --mode WTA alt+h resize_window narrower map --mode WTA alt+a resize_window narrower map --mode WTA alt+left resize_window narrower map --mode WTA alt+l resize_window wider map --mode WTA alt+d resize_window wider map --mode WTA alt+right resize_window wider map --mode WTA alt+k resize_window taller map --mode WTA alt+w resize_window taller map --mode WTA alt+up resize_window taller map --mode WTA alt+j resize_window shorter map --mode WTA alt+s resize_window shorter map --mode WTA alt+down resize_window shorter map --mode WTA ctrl+home resize_window reset map --mode WTA ctrl+r resize_window reset #arrange map --mode WTA shift+h move_window left map --mode WTA shift+a move_window left map --mode WTA shift+left move_window left map --mode WTA shift+l move_window right map --mode WTA shift+d move_window right map --mode WTA shift+right move_window right map --mode WTA shift+j move_window down map --mode WTA shift+s move_window down map --mode WTA shift+down move_window down map --mode WTA shift+k move_window up map --mode WTA shift+w move_window up map --mode WTA shift+up move_window up map --mode WTA shift+m swap_with_window # have to pop_keyboard_mode here to enable answering question map --mode WTA shift+t combine : detach_window ask : pop_keyboard_mode map --mode WTA shift+n combine : detach_tab ask : pop_keyboard_mode # Tabs map --mode WTA shift+alt+] move_tab_forward map --mode WTA shift+alt+right move_tab_forward map --mode WTA shift+alt+l move_tab_forward map --mode WTA shift+alt+d move_tab_forward map --mode WTA shift+alt+[ move_tab_backward map --mode WTA shift+alt+left move_tab_backward map --mode WTA shift+alt+h move_tab_backward map --mode WTA shift+alt+a move_tab_backward # Close others map --mode WTA ctrl+x>w close_other_windows_in_tab map --mode WTA ctrl+x>t close_other_tabs_in_os_window map --mode WTA ctrl+x>o close_other_os_windows # Layout actions enabled_layouts tall:mirrored=true,fat,splits:split_axis=horizontal,splits:split_axis=vertical,grid,horizontal,vertical,stack,tall,fat:mirrored=true map --mode WTA ctrl+alt+7 goto_layout tall map --mode WTA kitty_mod+alt+7 toggle_layout tall:mirrored=true map --mode WTA ctrl+alt+g goto_layout grid map --mode WTA ctrl+alt+w goto_layout fat map --mode WTA kitty_mod+alt+w toggle_layout fat:mirrored=true map --mode WTA ctrl+alt+v goto_layout vertical map --mode WTA ctrl+alt+h goto_layout horizontal map --mode WTA ctrl+alt+z toggle_layout stack map --mode WTA ctrl+alt+y toggle_layout splits:split_axis=horizontal map --mode WTA kitty_mod+alt+y toggle_layout splits:split_axis=vertical map --mode WTA ctrl+alt+, last_used_layout # control number of main windows action_alias increase_main layout_action increase_num_full_size_windows map --mode WTA ctrl+] increase_main map --mode WTA ctrl+up increase_main map --mode WTA ctrl+right increase_main map --mode WTA ctrl+l increase_main map --mode WTA ctrl+w increase_main map --mode WTA ctrl+d increase_main action_alias decrease_main layout_action decrease_num_full_size_windows map --mode WTA ctrl+[ decrease_main map --mode WTA ctrl+down decrease_main map --mode WTA ctrl+left decrease_main map --mode WTA ctrl+h decrease_main map --mode WTA ctrl+s decrease_main map --mode WTA ctrl+a decrease_main # increase main bias action_alias increase_bias layout_action bias 50 66 75 90 map --mode WTA kitty_mod+] increase_bias map --mode WTA kitty_mod+up increase_bias map --mode WTA kitty_mod+right increase_bias map --mode WTA kitty_mod+l increase_bias map --mode WTA kitty_mod+w increase_bias map --mode WTA kitty_mod+d increase_bias # decrease main bias action_alias decrease_bias layout_action bias 50 33 25 10 map --mode WTA kitty_mod+[ decrease_bias map --mode WTA kitty_mod+down decrease_bias map --mode WTA kitty_mod+left decrease_bias map --mode WTA kitty_mod+h decrease_bias map --mode WTA kitty_mod+s decrease_bias map --mode WTA kitty_mod+a decrease_bias ```

*(Because of how kitty's documentation is generated (relative anchors, e.g. `#1`, `#2`, etc) makes linking to specific changelog entries problematic as new versions are released; old links will not point to the correct entry.
