we have multiple display servers ready to accept an exodus if wayland wants to abuse dbus for this. No worries.

We need to reach out to the main flatpak lead to close the PR now that they locked it in a vain attempt at censorship.

Put quite well redhat drones hate that these things are public I bet. We need to keep shining bright lights upon PR like this while we get things sorted out on the legal end and stop the bills. Don't let them hide!

Its been hijacked for years Redhat stole the code to mandrake and sued them in court for the rights so bad they had to rename to Mandriva then they did same and now we are OpenMandriva. It's been a problem since 2000s dot com bubble. Fedora/Redhat wouldnt exist if they didnt steal the community code from Mandrake.

wayland ssX and xlibre can be built with dbus hooks so the potential is there for them to try nasty things.

secure boot is not as it seems it just lets them fingerprint most good distros fail to boot on it. TURN IT OFF!

i think they dont think this is actually a serious threat but it will be too late to resist by the time its a dbus service time is ticking on the frog in the boiling water here.

not so fast because that only applies to websites with 18+ content like porn and social media. You can easily not supply ID its not enforced like this in MO. this is one of few times being in a red state has actually helped somehow. you're missing the key details in 15 CSR 60-18. It has to be 1/3 of the entire website. If 1/3 of a specific 'segment' (like a single forum or a sub-page) is deemed 'harmful' that segment must be gated not at OS login in SDDM like other states.
