beleza pura

this is likely to keep as much people on windows as possible in an effort prevent people from being able to disable (or not have at all) things like location tracking, telemetry, etc. the us govt is probably going to crack down hard on “terrorist” threats (aka socialists, palestine supporters, and even anyone moderately critical of us imperialism), so they’re gonna need all the information they can gather about people’s online activities

maybe it’s the same reason some banks don’t work on rooted android phones: they want to prevent you to control how your system works bc they count on being able to extract as much information as possible from your computer usage without your consent

if the snap package is anything like the flatpak, i wouldn’t recommend it. the sandboxing gets in the way of a lot of stuff, including compilation, lsp, etc. it was a pain last time i tried it, unfortunately

i use debian, so i had to do this:

apt build-dep emacs

i assume pop os to be debian-based, so that’ll work for you too. this ensures every dependency is available beforehand so you don’t get to a scenario where emacs builds successfully, but something basic like gtk support is missing

then you clone emacs and then ./configure && make && make install. i use it for work everyday and it works pretty well

there’s no such thing as politically neutral

obligatory reminder that us-american domestic politics are so skewed to the right that what appears “moderate” in the usa is right to far-right anywhere else

your “liberals” are right-wing

your “conservatives” are right-wing

both are liberals

• not a lot of websites respect dnt
• it might serve as an identifier, i think
