  • I run Hyprland on my framework 13, and I really love using it over a normal DE like Plasma, mainly because I dont have to use the Touchpad for trivial things like opening an application or dragging around windows. It all just automatically tiles itself, and if the apps get too small I just move some of them to a new window

    Like, big menus with colors and Logos for every app may be useful if I dont know what I want to do on my PC, but since I know what I want when I open it, I can just use rofis extremely good search to just type what I want and open the app (for example, if I want to scan using Naps2, I just type Scanner and it shows Naps2)

    The controversy you pointed out is about someone who was writing factually false information and feeding hate against people who should be covered under the freedom of speech. The ban happened during his life, and not years after he died. Therefore his works were not a peace of gone culture, but hate in the present of time.

    If I follow your argumentation, that being that you should allow people write false information feeding hate against specific people just living their life in peace, you should be against censoring Hate speech against Lgbtqia+ people too, or the better question would be: where do you draw the line? At Jews? At queer people?




  • Yes, but you say it like the Author himself changed it.

    In the specific Example, the book is from before 2000 and the author is long dead. That book is a piece of culture now, displaying the writing style from a place in time where it was normal to discriminate against people. By changing a book, regardless of if it was actually amazon or just some manager that bought up the rights for the book, it is manipulating the Past. Amazon should not allow to do such things
