No, self checkout lanes are the worst. The machine messes up and I have three employees descending on me from three different directions and everybody turns and stares and I have to try to explain what I was doing when their shitty machine messed up and then they check all of my items and it takes longer than if I just went through a regular lane.

In the regular lanes I only have to deal with one person who is usually doing a good job and is always in the same place and always says the same things.

Edit: also the railroad needs to cover more of the island.

So when the site got "is under 18" yesterday and "is over 18" today, they now know your birthday. Cool.

Wayland does do lock screen: https://wayland.app/protocols/ext-session-lock-v1

The only thing I ever see jitter on scroll in Wayland is X11 applications. What is jittering on scroll for you?

Sounds like GNOME pisses you off. Try a window manager/compositor that is not designed by lunatics who think the OK/Cancel buttons should be at the top of the window when everything else reads left-to-right/top-to-bottom, and that every application should provide its own window decorations so every application looks wildly different. Maybe you would prefer https://kde.org/plasma-desktop/

Also, X11 is decades of half-baked garbage hacks piled on top of half-baked garbage. Wayland fixes real problems.

Because the priority is not making secure apps, the priority is not being responsible for security incidents. The lawyers at the company making shitty apps (e.g.: your bank) want to be able to say "We followed industry best practices, which is whatever Google said to do".

That being said: root, unlocked bootloader, and custom ROMs can all be big security problems. But if your bank's app will not work on GrapheneOS, your bank just sucks.

Reminds me of how we were dressed up as Pilgrims and Native Americans and taught that god blessed the pilgrims with this new land and they were welcomed with open arms and gifts of corn and turkeys.

If you are surprised by that most Americans want more rights for cars and trucks than for people you have not been paying attention.

That closing the last tab closes the window instead of leaving you with a blank tab. And that there is not even an option in the UI to change this, and you have to go to about:config -> browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab.

I went shopping with my partner for a lamp. On the positive side, when store employees get chatty, my partner handles the smalltalk. On the negative side, I knew what I wanted the lamp to do; my partner had vague feelings about how they wanted the lamp to make them feel. We did not find a lamp that instilled the right feelings.

It was not a total loss, I bought a lamp for my work desk so I can see better for writing and soldering. And I got some poffertjes from a street vendor.

Nothing in the Qualys report nor the Ubuntu page for the CVE indicate that there is something to be fixed in systemd, only that you can create systemd-tmpfiles rules that will expose the vulnerability in snapd.

What do you think systemd-tmpfiles needs to do differently?

Yet another critical vulnerability in systemd

This is a critical vulnerability in snapd, not systemd. It sounds like it could also be exploited if something other than systemd deleted the files in /tmp/. Or if /tmp/ was not mounted.
