There’s a Christian duty to follow laws that are just as well. From a very Christian perspective, the right thing to do would be convincing them to confess outright at least.

I’m no priest and I was definitely never catholic, but that’s how I see it as someone who grew up in a protestant house.

From what I’ve heard he doesn’t like Trump, and the tankie label is commonly and incorrectly equated with MAGA.

lmao I just said the same thing before reading your comment

Of course it’s just bad writing, but I kind of wouldn’t put it past management to try shoving their multitude of codebases through an LLM at this point.

The A stands for Automation, right?

I use keyd for software remapping now, and I like it a lot more than xkb’s esoteric options. It has functionality for layers like layer:C, where any “passthrough” input will have the defined modifier (or combo like C-S-M), but you can define whatever other bindings inside.

Long story short, I’ve used it to remap caps, control, shift (with a custom shift layer for some symbols), and meta, with overloads, double tap/hold into layers, oneshots, timeouts, and all sorts of (surprisingly fluid) nonsense. It’s so much easier than wading through xkb options for me.

To sidestep the question slightly less, I always got rid of capslock altogether instead of swapping. That still leaves true escape to be hit accidentally, but I think there should be an option to change escape too?

Edit: what I always used was

# make CapsLock behave like Ctrl:
setxkbmap -option ctrl:nocaps

# make short-pressed Ctrl behave like Escape:
xcape -e 'Control_L=Escape'

from here

I’ve always been a software guy, but man does building and doing something more physical sound fun. And the community around it all. I plan to get started (at some point) with a homeserver. Networking always felt more high stakes with security and privacy than the application side. Indie web has been calling my name though.

After finally getting into some embedded/iot tech, privacy, and tbh my own socialist awakening, I’ve been really interested in this kind of stuff.

Is it mostly about awareness or is there something more substantial to the practice and research? It’s such an odd concept to me I haven’t sussed out the details further than the hacker-y, just for fun, “because I can” projects. I’d love to use some tech skills for real purpose.

To be optimistic, I’d hope the federation would be able to guard against deeper centralization like a more extreme .world or .ml, a la meta or whoever. There’s always space for grassroots instances, and I’m pretty sure there will always be someone out there running something or with enough interest to learn.
