My understanding is that intention is not uncommonly litigated; I believe the question of “intent to deceive” is central to trademark law, for example. That’s also what the the “degrees” of murder etc are about.

Disclaimer: I’m not a lawyer. I do read an awful lot of contacts and talk to lawyers.

As always, there is a relevant XKCD: https://xkcd.com/345/

FYI “comprised of” is not a thing; you mean “composed of”. The correct way to use “comprise,” if you’re interested, is like “the United States comprises fifty states”. Technically you should mention DC and the various US territories etc as well, since comprise should indicate all of the parts.

Actually, Garuda Linux is really easy to use

I agree; that’s what I use on my main PC. Not sure what that has to do with Kali though.

People don’t seriously try to use Kali as a daily driver, do they? That’s just a meme, right? Right?

You can have non-markdown files in your vault, but I’m not sure how readily you can search them by default; there may be plugins that support that use case though.

self replicating the propaganda?

You can’t self-replicate anything other than yourself. You replicate things; we use “self-replicating” because it’s shorthand for “thing that replicates itself.”

A lead, as in something that leads you to the next step in the investigation.

That’s Canada

Yup; we are not the target audience, I guess

My largely uninformed opinion has always been that it’s about monetization: you don’t make the kind of money off ads on a blog that you can off a popular YouTube site. That, of course, is all Google’s decision. Presumably advertisers are willing to pay a lot more for video ad placement than for banner ads or something.

The difference is the part immediately after you stopped quoting:

They don’t understand how horrible the loss of privacy is…

What OP is saying here is that people know abstractly that smart devices are not privacy friendly, but they don’t understand how big a deal that actually can be.

I prefer ZZ if I want to quit and save

Oh interesting; I wonder if the quiz just chooses a random assortment of a big list of tools?

Oh. That’s not clear at all; I don’t even remember seeing a reference to a tool.

Seems like a weird and random assortment of items. Why was Google Hangouts mentioned, but not Gmail? What about Discord, Slack, etc? Or smart TVs? Almost felt more like guerrilla advertising for a few niche products.

Nah, it’s better than radio because now they can track you and sell your data, including everything they get from your phone, to the highest bidder.

CherryTree is way clunkier, IMO, and has too many irrelevant options that get in the way, particularly around formatting. Obsidian is just markdown, so you don’t have the option of spending 15 minutes trying to figure out why code blocks are showing up as dark text on light background even though you’re in dark mode, which was my last experience in CherryTree. Looking and cross referencing documents is also super easy; I’m not sure if CherryTree even does that.

is not out yet, but development seems to be moving quickly; it’s one to keep an eye on

I’m on Garuda, primarily becausei built a new machine with a (then) bleeding edge GPU, so I needed something rolling release that could make use of it. I tried a few others, including Endeavour and Nobara, but Garuda got me farthest along on its own.
