one very sad thing that happened with reddit (and probably also with stackoverflow) is that people somehow decided that deleting their comments was the best solution for protesting like it was going to change someones mind. they just made searching for past information a pain and the company still ended up getting money while still killing it slowly.
a better form of protest would have been a mirror of the information somewhere else and make some kind of collective effort to make it a direct replacement for it (the archive, not the live site) and avoid having to go through a chain of only "deleted" comments. we are very aware this would require an enormous effort and if we had that kind of organization the problem would probably had not exist anymore tho, but we are very frustrated about this alot.
this really boils down on having all information in a central place owned by a corporation that can do whatever it wants to do with it is very very bad idea, but now is SO or discord or other 20 sites we are not aware of, so doubt it will change in the short term.
@regn im interested if stackoverflow restoring deleted comments breaks safe harbor laws.
I wish I remember the lawsuit that had recently ended when I saw the stackoverflow's AI annoucement happened. The plantiff had been ordered to stop doing something because they were exercising editorial control over content, which they cannot do.
I personally think "stop contributing to stackoverflow" was the best form of protest.
began work on a keyboard case. i modelled all the dimensions of a gh60 keyboard pcb. anything more will require me to measure the dz60 pcb for additional holes which is more work than i want to do currently.
i have a very nice white PETG for the project, i've already discussed why i want to. i can also probably model and print out some tpu dampeners as well.
full* tablet support is at the LGTM stage in labwc so i should be able to swap back to mainline git soon:tm: and then move to a stable when its time.
rn the biggest thing i would like is gap support for full screen windows, otherwise i'm pretty happy.
*its not actual full tablet support, its a partial implementation of tablet v2 protocol that includes literally everything i care about for tablet support.
i WILL say i wish they went for full openbox compatibility in theming before they did stuff like rounded corners and shadows but its not THAT big of a deal to me.
