The worst part of my System76 Lemur laptop is the horrendously poor design of the arrow keys. You will notice how PgUp and PgDn are immediately adjacent to the left and right arrow key, but they are also identical to the touch, so whenever I have to edit something that's not in vim, I end up jumping to some random part of the page half the time.
Yes, I have now remapped them to be arrow keys as well, but I really shouldn't have to do that. 😤

I've followed more cool trans and enby people in the past 6 hours than in the past 6 months, it's glorious. :)

Why do I care? Personally, I care because I am a parent of an enby kid, and I don't have to explain to a lot of you what that means in terms of travel and governments. But even if I abstract away from that and look at it from a purely impersonal point of view, it makes *no sense* why any government body would keep records of that data. It's a bizarre vestige of the darker times when your status as a citizen was largely defined at the time of your birth (noble, peasant, male, female, Jewish, Protestant, etc).

Periodic reminder that as long as birth certificates have a "gender" section, then your government is literally running a children's genital registry.

@trini Run "which b4" to make sure you don't have some alias or symlink you forgot about. :)

@trini Hm... I notice that it's missing from the manpage, but 0.13 does certainly have it if you look at `b4 shazam --help`

NTS: before getting frustrated that ntp is refusing to set the correct time on the server, maybe check if it's actually your laptop that has a 30-minute clock skew...

@drewdevault 100%. At least they still use the bot identifier in the user-agent, making it possible to do a string match and 403 them to all heck.
