Thanks for the information regarding translation that makes it far more clear. I wouldn't phrase that as "mind deformation" because that sounds like mental illness.

This destroys anonymity its a public ledger and how do you imagine that helps security. Your vote is only as secure as your shitty insecure computer.

If its anonymous how do you keep malware from voting for people. Do you also intend to first solve computer security THEN solve government as well? Voting by mail is already reasonably easy to secure.

Yep this depends on the store.

LOL companies actually encourage this fake bullshit. It's called "adding value to the relationship" Bet you didn't realize that someone putting your canned beans and tampons into paper bags constituted a relationship.

rerequisites

wayland, including wayland-scanner and the base protocols
libxkbcommon
libtls (either from libressl, or libretls)
A compositor making use of wlroots, or (on an experimental basis) KDE, or (if all else fails) the willingness to run questionable networking utilities with the privileges to access /dev/uinput
wl-clipboard for clipboard support (only works on wlroots, not KDE/GNOME)

...

In my case, a 'uinput' group is created, and a udev rule is used to modify the permissions appropriately:

/etc/udev/rules.d/49-input.rules, in my case

KERNEL=="uinput",GROUP:="uinput",MODE:="0660"

From here, one could assign one's users to this group, but doing so would open up uinput to every program, with all the potential issues noted in the first paragraph. The safest approach is probably setgid:

as root -- adjust path as needed

chown :uinput waynergy chmod g+s waynergy

If this doesn't still doesn't seem to work (as in #38) be sure that the uinput module is loaded properly. This might be done by creating a file /etc/modules-load.d/uinput.conf with the contents of uinput

This is compared to just installing synergy which takes 7 seconds. I'm not sure why anyone imagines this is a credible alternative.

On everything but plasma 5.26+ Applications running via xwayland are scaled in a fashion that makes them blurry when the desktop uses scaling eg high dpi, furthermore if you have monitors A and B which use different scaling the X app can't be scaled differently on each monitor like X apps can be under X nor like Wayland apps are under wayland. If you use a single 1080p monitor you wouldn't have noticed any of this but its ridiculously common if for no other reason that there are shit tons of high dpi laptops and low DPI external monitors

If you include the period before we split from England we spent centuries taking land that didn't belong to us and building our economy at least partly on slavery. If you look at the South in that time frame slavery permeated their culture. It is as fair to say that slavery was if anything much more deeply embedded in Southern culture than whaling in Iceland.

It's seldom the case that the lesser of two evils has to win save when you aren't allowed to choose a good path because of entrenched interests better served by evil.

I didn't say we should be satisfied with "good enough" I said in practice we build our sandcastles on the beach irrespective of the approaching tide because it's what we know. In that context, it is no longer an absurd take it's just recognizing reality.

Splitting something into multiple executables doesn't make something not monolithic just like splitting a program into multiple source files doesn't make it not a monolith. It's not a monolith when the different component parts can be cleanly factored out, replaced, and used outside of the original context or with different versions of related components This is in fact very hard. Much harder than making a monolith.

For instance the X11 ecosystem isn't a good example of a monolith because its designed to make it trivial to swap in different loosely coupled components. You don't worry about needing your window manager and X11 to come from the same commit so they actually work. You can argue that the toolbox that systemd provides it is worth it but arguing that it's not a monolith just screams I'm not a developer.

Can moderators of a sub ban people from the instance or is there just an overlap between moderators of that sub and moderators of the instance?
