While his perceptions of other people's motives and meanings may be suspect, his technical analysis seems pretty spot on.

Kathy Hochul:

  • against congestion pricing
  • against reducing pollution
  • for giving a billion dollars to out-of-state billionaires to build a privately-owned head injury stadium where her husband has a contract to sell concessions

vote blue no matter who!

The problem is that there are way too many people to whom $300 is pocket change and perpetuating exploitation does not bother them.

The only time I have compiled a kernel in the last 10 years was to bisect to determine what change introduced a bug affecting my particular hardware combination.

Are you sure L2 is 192.168.1.0/24 and not something larger that includes 192.168.30.0, e.g.: 192.168.0.0/16?

What does ip route show before and after connecting to WG?

Are you testing DNS via dig @<nameserver>? or just with ping? Are you running systemd-resolved?

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.

 
 
 

I wrote a script and bound it to a key combo so I can draw a rectangle on the screen and map my drawing tablet to that area.

Future improvement: force the mapped area to the same aspect ratio as the tablet. I hope I can find a better way to programmatically get the ratio than running xinput list-devices and parsing out "Size: 160x100mm".

Bound via bindsym $mod+Shift+t exec ~/.config/sway/tablet-map. Is there a better way to reference the way config directory?
