Finding bugs in exams from 2015 really inspires my confidence in the one I'm taking tomorrow...

I'm happy to announce that aerc 0.3.0 is now available on Debian unstable! 🎉

Isn't it amazing when you provide seeds to all RNGs and the code is _still_ nondeterministic?

Got my RX590 yesterday. Finally ditching NVIDIA and running #sway on my desktop as well. Huge thanks to @sir and the sway team!
