I doubt anyone would list this as a reason, per se, but a common justification for the coffee/tea crowd is that these drinks are rich in antioxidants. The theory goes that stimulants cause oxidative stress, so you want all of the extra antioxidants that you can get.
I'll answer your question with another question: is it Vegan to eat bacon made from a pig you personally raised up from birth after it dies naturally having lived a full life?
If you define Veganism as a diet, then bacon's bacon. If you define Veganism as a personal reaction to the cruelty of industrial farms, then perhaps this is how you get Vegan bacon. If you define Veganism as something more spiritual, then perhaps desecrating your dear friend's corpse by eating it is even worse.
A brain implant that I can store a short memo in. I have a very bad working memory so it would be incredible to somehow store lists/numbers longer than 4 items in my head without hacking it by whispering the list to myself over and over.
That class expression is probably not correct. Can you share some examples of what the initialClass is for your thorium windows?
You can find this info by executing the following command in bash: hyprctl clients
If you want to rule out an issue with transparency, you can do something like this to manually set it and see:
hyprctl setprop address:0x[ADDRESS] alphainactive 0.5. Note that you need to supply the window address, which can also be found using the aforementioned hyprctl clients command.
In the Steam Link app, you have the option to select "Start Streaming" without picking a specific game. This will stream the screen as it is without binding to a specific window.
The main caveats here are as follows:
Requires a working pipewire & desktop portal configuration
Depending on desktop portal & settings, you may need to manually click through the screensharing request modal on your desktop at the start of each connection
The Steam client must be installed and running on your Linux machine in order to receive connections
What I've done instead is configured a desktop hotkey that toggles the system-level microphone mute. Two birds with one stone: foolproof PTT and on the same hotkey regardless of Zoom/Meet/Teams/Slack/Discord (consulting is fun)
To sum it up. Screenreaders are the main assistive interface required by blind users to interact with system applications. Linux screenreaders such as Orca interface with the AT-SPI (Assistive Technology Service Provider Interface) to provide two core functionalities:
Structured navigation of GUI elements via a keyboard interface
Navigation feedback via a Braille monitor or TTS
So that's the core. At a minimum, the desktop environment needs to ship with a bundled screenreader and AT-SPI coverage across all GUI system components. Fortunately this desktop environment already exists -- it's called Gnome.
Beyond just... shipping Gnome, the rest of the job would involve curating a list of accessible applications to be included in the out-of-box install, including blind-friendly default configurations. Ideally, there should be multiple configurations to choose from driven by a community wiki plus supporting configuration manager on the OS-side.
As for the underlying base distro -- I don't really think it matters. Immutable distros only provide declarative management for system components and most of what this project would need to cover are userland. It makes sense to borrow many of the children of such distros when building a configuration manager (e.g.: toolbox, home-manager), though these will conveniently work anywhere you want to bring them and thus won't constain the field of available options. With that being said, the ideal base distro would have the following characteristics:
Well known, well maintained, well documented
Official support for Gnome as an out-of-box, first-class desktop environment
Strong package repository game including current versions of all major assistive software
Very strong track record of stable releases that consistently boot all the way up to the display server
I don't say this as a disagreement, but rather just a factchecking exercise: "white phosphorus" isn't synonymous with "war crime" in the way that weapons like cluster bombs are. This is to say that it's possible to use in ways that are compliant with the international rules of war, unlike a many chemical weapons and the aforementioned cluster bombs.
Again, to be crystal clear: I am not on team human immolation. We all know that it is strategically impossible to deploy phosphorus in one of the most densely populated regions on Earth without deliberately choosing to immolate civilians. My hangup here is that the gravity of the situation will not be conveyed to a skeptic if you don't spell out the facts in exacting detail: on October 11th, Israel deployed an airburst of white phosphorus over Gaza city. White phosphorus deployed on a city with a population density of 21,000/sq. mile. Big time classic warcrime.
Excellent. More fuel for the Youtube lore video essay mines!
