Thank you for the help understanding this.

Yes, but only insomuch as laws that protect minors impose additional constraints on those who have “actual knowledge” that a user is actually a child.

So, if I understand right, basically they assume its correct unless given significant evidence otherwise? So like, if this flag is enabled and I visit a website and don’t directly provide personal information, then they have to assume I am a child under CCPA and thus can’t share my data. Right?

Statr law can expand upon federal law but not contradict. And it smells like AB1043 is more “add a more explicit signal of user age” than anything affecting data retention relating to children.

What part do you think is contradictory?

I was wondering more if they could just argue that it isn’t an reliable metric and thus was ignored for COPPA if it ever came up in Federal court - esspecially if adults end up using the flag for CCPA or Civil Code protections. As opposed to in California law, where it is assumed to be true unless shown otherwise.

So there isn’t really a good option, other than buying an off-the-shelf mesh system?

Its hard to know for certain given Trump’s insanity, but my own read on the situation is that they want to permanently remove Iran as a threat to Israel or the US. Basically, destroy the current government, and destabilize the country. What happens after that, they don’t care.

It may also be to raise oil prices, but this seems more secondary, given how involved Israel is, and how Trump doesn’t really have the subtly to not directly attack infrastructre related to oil.

While I don’t think Arcane is perfect, esspecially with the pacing issues, I think the character writting was phenomenal. Silco and Jinx in particular are both extremely empathic, and you feel bad for them and potentially even want them to succeed despite their despicable actions. Ambesa is far too rushed, but she’s still a fairly deep and multifaceted character (and benefits a lot from having a book to provide background). Honestly, the characters who are weakest, in my opionion, are the ones with most focus: Vi, Cailyn, and Victor. All three of them feel rushed and lacking in both depth and development.

I don’t have anything specific in mind. I’m mostly just trying to figure out where to even start learning. Like, I have a few different web sites and web apps already made, ranging in complexity from stuff with only html and css, to larger .net apps with a database and restful api. I just don’t really know how to go from running the exe on my computer to actually making it a secure and usable website.

Its incredibly annoying. I’ve taken a number of courses on software development, in a number of different areas, but nothing ever goes beyond, “press run in your IDE and see your finished program run”. If you’re just making a simple app that runs locally, fair enough, but thats only half the battle for most modern software.

Have they? Beyond, small, local measures, I haven’t noticed much difference. We still are trying to buy the F-35, we’re just as committed to American software and financial institutions and have no plans nor initiatives to transfer away, we’re doubling down on fossil fuels, much of which will go to the US, and we don’t really even (accurately) label which products are Canadian or not. I don’t know of a single government-led or funded initiative to reduce reliance on the US.

I believe Lemmy itself is shrinking. Last I checked Fediverse Observer, it was on a downward trend (although not drastically). That said, that excludes PieFed. I think when including PieFed we’re probably growing (very) slowly.

Erm, it looks to me that there is a project to make them work on Linux: https://openrazer.github.io/.

It only covers the absolute basics. Not even button rebinding.

Also… TBH if a mouse doesn’t work on Linux that kind of makes it a bad mouse, IMO. I would just get a different mouse if it was an actual issue. It’s not like it’s a mechanical keyboard or something.

I mean, even ignoring that, its pretty bad. Doesn’t even have on-board memory. Unfortunately, its what I’m stuck with, given that I can’t afford a new one.

Unfortunately not. Theres some tools for the RGB, or one-off tweaks like changing DPI and polling rate in the UI, but nothing that offers button rebinding, nonetheless profile control.

OpenRazer unfortunately doesn’t support rebinding buttons.

Are you sure its the same as the Naga X, because I’m 99% sure the Naga X doesn’t have on-board memory? The earlier and more expensive ones do, but the X is the cheapo option.

My mouse isn’t Logitech, its Razor. The Naga X.

What kind of mouse are you using anyway?

Razer Naga X. I spent all day yesterday trying to get it working in Mint, but had no luck. Nothing supports button rebinding, nonetheless DPI changes with button remapping.

Edit: made it slightly more clear

I mean, if the marketing is lying about the product, it will probably demoralize developers in a similar way and for the same reasons.

I mean, theres the obvious answer that the world sucks right now. Even in the richest country in the world, large parts are the population are starving and/or homeless.

That said, your argument seems to conflate “nature” with “reality”. The answer to that is that nature is generally very bad for us. Bugs and animals will try to eat us if given a chance - killing us first is a luxury often not afforded. Plants, trying to avoid being eaten, are poisonous almost as often as not. With the limited availablility of food in nature, starvation is common. Even common diseases can kill hundreds of thousands without the use of modern medicine. We build and innovate to get away from all this. We build houses and weapons to protect ourselves from the elements and the animals. We develop pesticides and GMOs because they’re easier to grow and more nutritious, making feeding ourselves cheaper. We develop medicine to save billions of lives that would otherwise be lost. Being natural doesn’t mean something is good for us, and in fact generally means the opposite.

Some are real, many are exaggerated or fantastical. It varies a lot. If you think of western shows, some use realistic names, esspecially in a more grounded setting, but most cartoons or more fantastical works will use names that are over-the-top (I.E. Marty McFly), while others are loosely based on other languages or completely made up.

I believe “Hot” sorting filters by a mix of recency, score and possibly also activity. If you want to sort by score alone, you can use the dropdown to change the sorting to use “top” instead. There may also be an option in your settings to make this the default if you want to.
