Most of what you said is may be true but not the part about hentai ? France does block, without asking a judge, most of the big hentai websites with a problematic catalog, and you can't sell those IRL either !

I hate this administration as much as the next (european) guy, but what has this got to do with hackernews ?

Does anybody know if there is a way to remap the "gesture button" (thumb) to launch a .sh ? I've tried a dozen way without success, the only thing I can do is map the .sh to an actual gesture (button+scroll up) but I don't want to use gestures !

For a minute I had hope this would work on linux. I'm using Solaar and it kind of works but I haven't managed to make it per-application, also the UI and rule editor is the most cryptic thing ever.

Okay so not dissing on the website itself (btw reader mode isn't always available depending on context...) this reads like a total mess. I guess it's too messy to be AI generated so that's good, but it doesn't feel professional at all, is this a fanfic ?

The mercosur being great I'm not so sure... Yeah let's import a lot of agricultural products that can use banned chemicals why our farmers can't and so can't compete, just so that Geemany can export a few cars...

To be fair, it lack some functionality, like mapping a single modifier to a button

Look I'm far-left and pro palestinian but I do flag stories like that because there are places on the internet to discuss current world news/atrocities and hn isn't one of them ?

It's getting flagged has it should be, according to the hn guidelines that you should read:

Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, or celebrities, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic.

I feel the same, it's unreadable, which is too bad because the work seems interesting.

Kind of disappointed lately by the number of political posts. It's not that I don't care about what's going in the US, it's just that I'm already bombarded with news about it, and I come here to get away from it and learn cool stuff...

coumbaya — Sun, 02 Feb 2025 17:31:46 +0000

It was like 80 when I typed "wrong" (mainly with 6-7 fingers), I learned to touch type like 4 years ago and switched to a 40% keyboard, now I'm typing at 60-65wpm max I guess, but it does feel better.
