Cool and fun thing I just learned:

In Missouri, tow companies can hold your belongings - not just your car - as collateral, even if those belongings were stolen 😊

I'm not on Ubuntu so I don't have Onboard and xvkbd can't scale properly send help hfjdgoejgkehg

Otherwise this new convertible laptop has actually been quite good! I'm typing on it right now! I have root on ZFS on LUKS and that's new for me too!

It works the closest to an Android or iOS keyboard and it doesn't flash windows to direct the typing focus.

It's still not great... I think I would have a better experience on a different DE that ships its own on-screen keyboard.

the objectively correct answer is to use Onboard

if your Linux distribution doesn't package Onboard then you should find a third-party repository that does.

... coincidentally, on Gentoo:

eselect repository enable earshark
emerge --sync earshark
emerge onboard

I'm getting the impression that no one writing or maintaining greetd or a compatible greeter application has ever once thought about what if we're being used to log in a tablet device and have to display a keyboard

i'll often put on a podcast before bed to tune out/fall asleep to in place of reading, and this evening I decided to listen to an old episode of Well There's Your Problem.

This evening it's episode 78.

The one with ALL of the surprise soviet anthem stings.
