(and of course systemctl disable NetworkManager.service because remove is not an option: a whole fscking system depends on NetworkManager!!!!) /rant of so .. i just blew off my steam ... i know that this will not have any effect and Linux windowisation is a force one cannot fight against .. so i am just ranting ...
