Lemmy is a piece of software. Who "cares" or doesn't is dependant on the people administrating instances you use or communicate with.

Decentralization. Don't think there's a place for your speech? Run your own server.

 

Helix is great, but please why can't indentation just be what is set in the language.toml file?

[[language]]
name = "zig"
indent = { tab-width = 8, unit = "\t" }

Changing indent-heuristic doesn't fix it. Why does helix give me the option to set the indentation style and then proceed to overwrite it, Instantly resetting it to 4 spaces instead of what I told it.

The behavior that is occurring is extremely weird and would be instantaneously solved if helix would just use the value in the file.

I don't want your garbage heuristic, I just want you to leave my file alone and do what I told you.

This might go well with a buff to fall damage caused by the airblast + marked for death on the victim.

You can't be pardoned for something you didn't do.

Sure you can.

Even ignoring stuff like preemptive pardons, a pardon relinquishes you from the Justice System's punishment. Conviction doesn't mean you did it.. So there exists the potential for a pardon to be issued for someone that was wrongly convicted.

The censorship being referred to here is a legally defined term...

There is no such mention by OP about the legal definition.

Censorship in all the dictionaries I see don't require it to be a government that is censoring for it to be called "censorship".

Someone attempting to hinder someone else's ability to reach certain information is engaging in censorship.

Security is much more effective and adopted when it is simple. My understanding is that SELinux is not.

This means not only will fewer people use it and more people turn it off if something doesn't work, it means more people are at risk of misconfiguring their system to allow something they didn't intend to.

This is somewhat mitigated from the fact that, from my experience, Linux Security Modules cant ever make you less secure than without it. But it still can provide a false sense of security if you misconfigure it.

Here is a good article showing what I am referring to, and providing a solid security tool: BSD pledge/unveil on Linux.

Depends on the environment surrounding the door, as well as the environment surrounding the computer.

Some people simply care less about their computer security. The debate stops there. Security operates on a foundation of what you want to secure.

By comparing two environments of someone's life you know little about, you are commenting from ignorance.

If you're going to censor something, use an opaque black shape. These half-ass censorship attempts are ridiculous.

True.

Though, you are probably going to have a much easier time implementing a change to your code that is present in a company's published code, than you would trying to reverse-engineer a binary.

Sharing of the code I would consider "giving back" in it of itself.
