Logseq has genuinely made me a less stupid person. It's confusing to learn, but the ceiling for articulating and organising your thoughts and knowledge base is insanely high. Other apps kind of feel like I'm fighting the limitations of my tools in order to organise a mental library of where to find information.

I read the headline and my immediate thought was "is this controlled for socioeconomic class?"

I guess I'm reading the paper

Yeah uh no, I didn't argue one way or the other about a boycott. That was your assumption and you're trying to get me to fight it. If I cared to tell people what to think about a heated topic on the internet and then defend my position it from a bunch of mouthbreathers, I would go back to Reddit.

Your comment is a de facto strawman.

What exactly are you arguing against, here? I don't waste time on people who try to strawman me.

J.K. Rowling's anti-trans rhetoric and activism has enough influence to lead directly or otherwise to the further persecution and discrimination against an already marginalised minority group.

She at some point opted for or was identified by those with similar views as the term TERF, a 'trans-exclusionary radical feminist' (the acronym is arguably problematic). The queer community and queer allies use the term with a implied derogatory connotation. A number of TERFs who picked up on this connotation now believe that it is an insult, and do not wish to be labelled as such (despite TERFs coining the term themseIves).

Is this any better than Aegis?

This is a whataboutist counterpoint at best. Universities and their researchers are not a monolith.

I'm a huge proponent of the command line, but you often spend more time learning tools and configuring your environment than getting work done.

I'd instead recommend you start with learning basic system administration for Linux. User management and permissions on https://linuxjourney.com/ or TLCL would be a good place to start. Of course there's a good chance your desktop environment has ways of configuring users and permissions, too.

Ublock origin has a very powerful URL filtering system, e.g. https://beehaw.org/c/gaming$document blocks you from accessing the gaming community on beehaw, but doesn't stop you from accessing https://beehaw.org or other communities on the site.

A very interesting and crazy proposition, but I think you're asking the wrong question. There are definitely ways of removing distractions from your environment without resorting to something so drastic.

E.g. have you considered creating a user with restricted access to certain programs (example) and set up add-ons for web browsers that restrict access to certain websites.

This was an amazing thing to read

I suppose I'll be watching two pile of snakes pretending to be people for the duration of which this plays out.

Oh

I'm going to miss the old thing :(

Fedora, I'm not a tech person by Linux user standards and I just need an OS that works
