Optimize KDE for Long-Term Offline Computing

This article sets out a vision for KDE (the free software desktop environment) written by Clinton Ignatov. It doesn't draw on permacomputing explicitly but it is nonetheless full of real-world examples of permacomputing principles, particularly less reliance on omnipresent networking. If you were on the techie end of the spectrum and looking for inspiration to put concepts into practice, IMO this is a great starting point.
