if esc or alt+f4 don't do what you want, try going to window management in settings and making a window rule. you can click the detect window properties button then click the offending window and set the window type to match. then you can try using rules like forcing the titlebar on just that window or ignoring global shortcuts or one called 'closable'. i've never used any of these but it's a thought.

There is probably a better way but you could make a bunch of copies of the image, shift the hue in GIMP (or whatever image editor you prefer) until you end up with an amount of images equal to the total number of changes you want throughout the day, put them all in a directory, go to set that directory as your wallpaper image, make it a slideshow and set the timer to change however often you want the shift to happen.
If you were trying to make a specific color match a specific time of day, it would not work, unless you set the wallpaper after each reboot to the appropriate color. It also would be a bit tedious if you wanted a large number of hue changes throughout the day.
pet solutions
I've never heard this term before. My searches online aren't bringing up anything useful, it's all stuff about literal pets. I can't seem to wrap my mind around what it could mean or the right thing to search to find the answer. Could someone explain please?
The ADHD aspect of computer related stuff is something I wish more people understood, Linux and beyond. I have about 45 seconds before I get distracted, that's if I'm lucky and my phone doesn't go off or a neighbors dog starts barking or I hear strong wind and decide to check the weather or I suddenly remember I need to mop the floor of my bathroom and a near infinite set of other possibilities. If I need to spend 15 minutes reading man pages about what arguments actually do or searching online for it and getting a short list of links dating anywhere from 2 to 20 years ago or a forum post with a dozen pages of comments then I... I... shit. What was I doing?
I'm sure they mean an elegant dinner party to honor them and not eating your extended family as a light snack before bedtime.
In 1900 on March 14th the Gold Standard Act was ratified in America, forcing the dollar to be redeemable by the Treasury on demand for a fixed value in gold. It was abondoned in 1933 during the Great Depression (which really was not all that great from what I've read).
In 1943 Kraków Ghetto ceased to have prisoners. Less great than that depression.
1964 Jack Ruby was convicted of assassinating JFK.
1879 Einstein's birthday.
1883 Karl Marx's death.
this is probably an edge case but I do when i visit family and friends. these trips are short and infrequent enough that a laptop would be an unnecessary expense and i'm not driving through mountainous areas with my tower. none of them use linux. most have aged windows or mac machines. they don't care if i run a live system or puppy linux from a USB drive. i add a handful of appimages i'll use at night or if there's free time. I'm sure there are better ways but it works for me.
I'm not sure that's true, I'm going to ask Jeeves.

libass: nothing appropriate.
weird, mine does too. at least they fixed the KDE calculator... mostly. before the last update it wasn't using the result of calculations to start the next calculation. so typing 2+2 then hitting enter gave 4 but if you typed +2 after that, it would error. had to type the answer if starting a new calculation. it was very frustrating.
I'm poor (income is ~20% below US poverty line) and only vaguely understand how things work and speak one language. So I have no money, wouldn't trust my advice to fix things or explain them and translations can be done better with other resources than me. I did try to make wallpapers and icons for a few things but they weren't professional looking enough to share. As I learn more I hope to contribute more in any way I can, if I'm confident it will help, but for now the best thing for me is to stay out of the way.

My eeepc sadly died last year, it was a single core laptop i had running hannah montana linux in my bathroom as a music player.
My Precision M6400, a dual core made in 2008, is still going strong and sure, it's slow, but it still works and has replaced the eeepc in the bathroom so now I can listen to music OR watch videos (not streaming) during my extra long showers. i don't keep it in the bathroom, it's on a dock in another room connected to a monitor with a really long dvi-i cable.
