wasn't that the whole point of capitalism anyways? /s

'Vortex Cannon vs Drone' - Mark Rober shows off tech from a "defense technology company that specializes in advanced autonomous systems". That seems bad

I've enjoyed Mark Rober's videos for a while now. They are fun, touch on accessible topics, and have decent production value. But this recent video isn't sitting right with me...

X automatically changed 'Twitter' to 'X' in domain names, breaking legit URLs (mashable.com)

On Monday, it appears X attempted to encourage users to cease referring to it as Twitter and instead adopt the name X. Some users began noticing that posts viewed via X for iOS were changing any references of "Twitter.com" to "X.com" automatically....

while playing around with face/fingerprint unlock for my laptop, I messed up pam (Linux Pluggable Authentication Modules) and no passwords were working anymore except for the root account. At first I was still on my account, but then I stupidly rebooted and could only log in as root. After so many config edits, I gave up and instead booted up windows (my laptop's dual booted), setting up a new linux install in VirtualBox, and then copying over the PAM config files from the vm to the actual Linux install.

and it all somehow worked!

I am now facing another issue which I'm gonna say here in the hope somebody has already
ran into it: after updating to KDE plasma 6, tap to click works on my touchpad, but actually, physically, pressing on the trackpad doesn't work. I can hear the pad's physical clicking noise, but nothing happens os wise

this one's still to be resolved
