The KS State AG is Kris Kobach. There's a less than zero chance of accountability coming at his hand. This is the dipshit that the court had to sanction and basically say "you need to go back to law school 101" and forced him to take remedial education.

(The KBI reports to him, and their initial response was that "the media is not above the law" until it became clear this was national news.)

Oops, sorry, I told the truth about a Republican, I deserve my HN smackdown, but, here, maybe this will help:

* Federal judge finds Kris Kobach in contempt of court in voting rights case (https://www.kansascity.com/news/politics-government/article2...)

* Kobach Sanctioned For Misconduct In Voting Rights Case, But Not Found 'Dishonest' (https://www.kcur.org/politics-elections-and-government/2019-...)

* Judge Orders Kris Kobach to Take Remedial Legal Classes After Multiple Courtroom Blunders (https://lawandcrime.com/awkward/kris-kobach-ordered-to-take-...)

* Kris Kobach, Already Ordered to Remedial Law Classes, Faces Even More Legal Challenges (https://americasvoice.org/blog/kobach-more-legal-challenges/)

That's not remotely enough.

1. I want an explanation of how the Judge signed off on a search warrant against a journalistic outfit, in violation of Federal Law.

2. I want an explanation of the ethics violations at play. The Judge who signed the warrant, was the former County Attorney until she was appointed into her position. Now, presumably her protege is the County Attorney, who happens to be family with the owner of the hotel where Keri Newell's restaurant (not the Cafe) is located.

3. I want an explanation of how public DUI records, in anyway, can be construed to be private information, or identity theft, or whatever else.

4. I want an explanation and apology to the city council person who's home was raided, computers and phones taken, and an elderly couple with health risks left alone with no way to contact anyone.

5. I want an explanation as to why Kris Kobach's KBI's first response was "the media is not above the law", until outrage flaired.

6. And I'm not holding my breath for those affidavits, but they'd damn well better be released unredacted.

This is of course not even getting to the police chief who left Kansas City due to numerous sexual misconduct allegations that the newspaper was looking into.

They better not think they're going to sweep this under the rug.

My understanding is that basically all clients were scaling to the next highest integer factor, and then rescaling back to the fractional size. With this, and support in the toolkits, it should be possible to be more efficient and have more accurate rendering.

But yes, I have a keyboard shortcut that can change the scale of my entire desktop up or down in .1 increments. It's one of my favorite Linux things because macOS and Windows sure as hell can't come close to working that well with arbitrary scale factors.

Or you could work 6 years, live within your means and semi-retire for... oh apparently 6 years, and if you can invest worth half a penny and avoid the American consumerism treadmill... A helluva lot longer.

Get out while you can, indeed.

Simple, straight forward, privacy friendly, crypto payments, support was about 5x faster with Njalla than Gandi.

It's more expensive but I don't care. It's pennies a day difference and it's critical infra, not something yo cheap out on, especially given the horror stories of other registrars over the years.

I moved everything there.

There's a lot of user hostile moderation practices that occur on this site, manual and automatic. They're not often, or really at all, discussed. Some of them don't work well, and haven't for as long as they've existed.

The closest I've come to slipping back into clinical depression is when I moved home for a few months to KS where the weather is brutalizing and on top of it, they live in the "country" where civilization is 20 minutes away.

One of my family members is clearly desperate for social outlets. And they thrive and gush over anywhere they travel to that inevitably is walkable and has tangible community.

Idk how people do it.

If Discord.io was using OAuth then this would largely be a non-issue as those tokens could be invalidated or revoked, by Discord, trivially. And they wouldn't have any password data, hashed or otherwise.

Granted, I don't use discord.io , so maybe I'm missing something.

Fun fact, she wasn't even elected. My understanding is that she was an appointee to an open seat.

I am stunned at how this keeps getting more appalling.

The judge signing a search warrant without a probable cause affidavit, the judge issuing a search warrant against the press violating federal law, the connections between the court and the hotel that houses Keri Newell's restaurant, the batshit public response Keri Newell posted, the fact she got a liquor license with a DUI, a claim that she had her identity stolen at a city council meeting.

The fact the cops raided a paper for a story they didn't publish, even though they would have been fully protected to do so at all.

It's not being widely covered by a city council woman's house was also raided. They took her phone and computer as well, leaving her and her sick husband alone with no way to call for help. Cops are scum.

Marion is about 2 hours away from where I'm staying now. It might be a good thing I don't have a car. I'm furious. Going to be stopping by the KBI office today, I'm sure that's going to go well. (The KBI is under Kris Kobach and has said in response to this raid that "the press is not above the law".)

And yet, it's not the first or last project to choose to build a base SDK in Rust and provide bindings on top. And an effort being taken by a company quickly trying to iterate, build a polished product, and bring revenue in on the edges.

And you can already look at various projects and see the positive impacts.

I'd elaborate on why, but we've all heard it a thousand times and the folks that don't want to believe anything they hear about Rust still won't hear it.

Yes, it's a conspiracy called "unchecked late-stage capitalism", and "feckless anti-monopoly policies".

You don't need much of a conspiracy when virtually every industry, everywhere has gone through significant consolidation.

It's even a problem for the military. Private contractors are gouging the US Government to the tune of *billions* and we can't do anything about it because critical parts, once produced by a few competitors, now have only one producer.

I'm just wondering how many of the Firefox/Linux devs actually test on, or use, Wayland. (Based on how often it seems to regress on Nightly)

Except that niv doesn't ensure pure evaluation, and thus a number of non-flakes, niv-friendly projects are unusable with flakes, and are often difficult to work with otherwise due to their impurities.

It also can't do transient overrides which is quite literally the essential reason that Flakes is killer to me.

For example, I can cross-compile to riscv64-linux, including a bunch of 3rd party flakes repos *specifically* because I refer to them and then override their nixpkgs to point to my nixpkgs with various cross-compilation fixes.

Definitely not possible to do this with niv.

It also does nothing to solve the countless issues with channels that I've watched afflict countless new Nix users, every week, for 3+ years. [insert the usual 8-stop troubleshoot list when a user has any issue possibly related to channels]

> Flakes have no concept of cross compilation and makes this use case extremely tedious to use.

I don't agree at all. I use flakes with cross compilation literally all of the time. Having a concept of "cross-compilation" at the CLI level, instead of being part of the nix evaluation itself would be a travesty IMO. I love being able to do a single nix eval that includes 3 different architecture of native builds for my host toplevels, along with "cross" variants that set hostPlatform to x86 and produce cross-builds.

>You need to remember to stage changes whenever you do Ctrl+S in your editor before rebuilding

This is decidely not quite true. You must have the file visible to Git. Flakes still just uses the files, as long as they're tracked by git. As long as you have no new files that aren't in the index, staging unstaged changes will not change eval.

That said, yes, when you add a new file to a flakes repo, you start to develop a habit of always adding it to the stage/index for eval.

but you should ONLY ever see this as a very very obvious "file not found", it is not a subtle problem as this post implies.

Yeah because people can use their brains? Just because Trump was in bed with his Justice Dept doesn't mean Biden is. I haven't seen a SINGLE shred of evidence that Biden has even so much as thought about Merrick during the last 3 years.

It's almost like a police force trampling on first amendment rights is appalling like a candidate trying to subvert the results of an election, incite a riot, pressure election officials, put up a knowingly fraudulent, illegal fake voter scheme, or pay off a porn star.

Whatever, you know this, you don't care.

They don't care. They undoubtedly know this and knowingly just lie about it. There's no point in typing that stuff out.

Of course, then I fell for it to. Politics here is bad enough but when people repost the lowest effort, lowest thought string-of-words they've been trained on... I mean, I could just go read Truth Social directly.

Life is not a movie. These things happen all of the time without some Hollywood feell good ending. You dont get to just go "oh good old journalism will just fix this". Did you even read it? They can't publish? They were decimated. The Kansas state governors office needs to getting involved and I have an alarm set to call Kelly's office when it opens tomorrow.

Take a look at Matrix and what the ecosystem is doing. The entire ecosystem is rebasing on the Rust SDK and bindings to it. It's a massive reduction in duplication of effort, and means there's fewer bugs with interoping clients because they're increasingly all using the same SDK.

It's considerably more flexible, more easily embedded than node or Go.

You more or less described IPFS. Of course, IPFS grinds my gears because despite oodles of money and time, they still don't have a cohesive ecosystem SDK, haven't rebased on a Rust base, just squandering attention in the space, imo.

Yeah, sorry, you're just describing your own moral/social code. It's honorable and I happen to generally agree with your view of how folks should interact.

(I also know it costs nothing for people to call for me to be killed because I like dudes, and I know that that impacts my quality of life and health, but those sorts of things never matter to absolutionists who never seem to have dealt with serious concern trolls, threats, implicit violence, etc. Which apparently I'm supposed to tolerate for 35+ years?

Started out with seeing Fred Phelps family using free speech to draw crude depictions of gay men in intimate positions, and talking about God killing Americans on 9/11 because of tolerating gay people. Carrying signs and protesting at places such that I would see them regularly. From 5 years old til 18 when I fled that red state and never looked back.

Imagine being in a conservative state, not knowing another single gay person besides Ellen on the TV, surrounded by a bunch of conservative, and the jerks that even the conservatives won't claim, all telling me that I'm completely worthless, or the reason American soldiers die. As a 12 year old, scared he might be gay.

But hey, it's just speech, that couldn't possibly be incredibly damaging for a child to see during his formative years!! Nahhhh)

Aaaanyway, moreover, what you're describing has nothing to do with the protections afforded by the actual First Amendment, which is about speech free of governmental prosecution.

So fucking done with this conversation. I should've never made the joke so I could've lied to myself and pretended that people might've actually educated themselves on this topic.

And fwiw, I am fine with the ACLU defending the Phelps's right to free speech. I mean, really, I have some respect for them now. At least they actually follow scripture and have conviction unlike virtually every other modern Abrahamic religion that just is awful until about 8 years after the needle has moved, and then they change their view arbitrarily to try to stay popular and relevant given the changing surrounding social norms.

Does freedom of speech cover shouting "free speech" in a crowded internet forum and then running for cover?

What an absolute shame. I hope EMS can start finishing some irons in the fire and focus on true polish. I still have serious issues adding a new client (device verification issues). I personally have encountered some of these bridge issues, and cannot believe there's not an effort to write a new one with matrix-rust-sdk.

> When I started taking Escitalopram, I stopped being depressed.

Ooh, anecdotes, and ignoring your own quoted text, I can do that too!

When I started taking it, I became numb, lost my sex drive, and basically exacerbated my underlying anxiety problem related to the depression. When I stopped taking it, I had extreme, severe withdrawal symptoms, orders of magnitude worse than any other withdrawal I've ever been through. When I stopped taking it, I had been practicing meditation and going to therapy. I also threw in real commitment to the gym for the first time in my life. Took a while for the sexual side effects to wear off too. Needless to say, I have extreme resentment for the doc that put me on that with zero guidance, warning, options, etc. I know have a beta blocker prescribed that I can take to prevent the physical symptoms of anxiety from exacerbating into a mini panic attack, but I basically don't need to take those anymore.

I can find a non-trivial number of studies that (happy to link them, don't want to spam or be over the top right now), either:

1. Show it's barely more effective than a placebo.

2. Show it's barely more effective than a placebo, except for about 15% of those taking it, who had a measurable improvement.

I'm not a doctor but I'm going to sublty imply that there are other treatments for depression, with more impressive statistics, that don't cause bi-minutely head-to-toe "body zaps" when trying to go off it.

That's basically the biggest thing I'm missing. I think there's still a few FD redirection tricks that I use occasionally in zsh that are also missing (and are hard to hack in due to lack of job control).

It would undermine the single implicit response and rallying crying used by a bunch of (certain people) right now, so, there's a bit of fingers-in-ears going in.

Couldn't agree more and at this point, virtually every new mainstay tool I adopt is written in Zig or Rust and I can't see myself migrating to a shell written in C/C++. Especially when something like nushell so elegantly avoids the situation you're describing. (I use nushell as my daily driver shell, and bang out scripts in it on an hourly basis. It's a blessing to use, though still missing an essential "shell" feature or two)

Wow, every time I check in on it it feels like its 10x the product it was the 4-6 months prior. Impressive!

> significant part of the value proposition of Tailscale is their very well designed web UI which makes managing their Wireguard based networks very user friendly.

I think this is an opinion. I don't use the tags/rules, and I literally only use their website to complete the oauth flow to auth a new client. Headscale is a perfectly functional replacement of Tailscale for me.
