I've been using Devil for a little while now. The right control key is pretty far from the home row on my keyboard, so the usual touch typing motions are inconvenient. I feel like Devil, which I have mapped to semicolon, lets me reclaim some of that.

I have caps lock as control as well, so that gives me control access on both sides of the home row. The two sides behave a bit differently since caps lock is an actual modifier, but that hasn't been an issue for me.

This is the main reason that one should learn to read PKGBUILDs. Any AUR helper like Yay or Paru should give the option. Just make sure that the package downloads from an official source and contains only the necessary build and install instructions.

But I agree. Some people treat the AUR as just another repository, when it most definitely is not.

I've toyed around with OpenShot for basic usage but I generally prefer kdenlive. It doesn't require a bunch of KDE dependencies though so that's something to consider.

 

Now with bloom.

I'm an openbox+tint2 desktop kind of person, so I've started to build my desktop of the future with labwc+waybar. I've hammered waybar into a decent facsimile of my tint2 config, and now I just have to wait until labwc matures enough that all of my old keybinds work. Someday...

Checking every possible case with a computer doesn't give any great insight into mathematics, but proof by exhaustion is as valid a method as any other.

Shattered Pixel Dungeon is probably my favorite mobile game at the moment. It's a pedant-approved traditional roguelike RPG (most comparable to DCSS) built especially for mobile platforms, and surprisingly one of the best that I have played. It's also libre software licensed under GPLv3+, though I'm not sure how that works with the App Store. It's available free of charge on Android but I think it's a paid app on iOS.

If you wanna go full gnome2, try Raleigh Reloaded

I've tried this out before instead settling on Liferea for a time. The two applications are very similar, except that Liferea is GTK rather than Qt-based. I'd definitely recommend whichever one fits better in your environment if you're looking for a graphical RSS reader.

Nowadays, I mostly use Emacs's Elfeed for RSS as one part of Emacs's slow conquest of other programs on my computer.

 

Extra context from LWN:

Back in November, Vizio had asked to move the case to Federal Court, because the GPL is only a copyright license (which is a dispute handled at the Federal level) and not a contract (that could be adjudicated in state court). Friday's ruling disagreed with that premise. [...] "The ruling is a watershed moment in the history of copyleft licensing. This ruling shows that the GPL agreements function both as copyright licenses and as contractual agreements."
