I asked this question on Mastodon and got some helpful answers. I haven't had the time to try anything yet, but here are some links. KDE: https://github.com/pjones/plasma-manager Gnome: https://hoverbear.org/blog/declarative-gnome-configuration-in-nixos/ Xfce may be similar to the Gnome article but using xfconf and xfconf-query to get the settings to apply. Again I haven't tried any of these suggestions. This is a summary of the info I got elsewhere.

Starting Offensive Security EXP-301 Windows User Mode Exploit Development next week. Binary exploitation isn’t needed much in my work, but need it for OSCE3. After this I hope to be able to stick to normal training courses built for working professionals - instead of second job for many months plus grueling 72 hour exam + reporting courses. “Just one more and then I’ll quit”. Lol.
Something I don’t think is talked about enough in offensive cybersecurity training / skill development are communication skills. Too often we are seeing folks try to enter these roles without the ability to write reports and give presentations to audiences with a mix of technical and business attendees. My recommendation to folks considering these roles is to put in the time to get communication skills to a very professional level. Train it just like report writing or public speaking was a new shiny hacking certification. It will improve your chances of landing the job.
