To hand power 'back to the people,' House Dems propose amendment to reverse Citizens United in c/politics@lemmy.world
[–] JAWNEHBOY@reddthat.com 8 points 1 month ago

Agreed, just frustrating that they wait until their corpo donors are done signing checks for a big election year. Would've been a huge game changer years ago when Dems were in control and perhaps would've proven everyday Americans support progressive policies

Wicked! I've only purchased Hanklights up until now, so a new brand would be very interesting!

? Worker protections don't prevent the employer from relocating. The US has become more of an oligarchy than ever, that's why the pigs at the top can move operations to states that are worse for their employees and get away with it, e.g. Tesla moving to Austin.

Correlation doesn't imply causation: people move to red states for work because employers flock to red states, e.g. caterpillar moving from MI to TX for fewer worker protections. Given the choice, everyone would choose better worker protections and union rights and therefore blue states, but us working class folks don't have the luxury of waiting around for the perfect job opportunity in a blue state.

Blue states always have the best consumer protections! We need more working class candidates to get all the establishment cronies out of office and protect Americans from exploitation from the oligarch class

LGBTQ liberals start arming themselves over baseless fear of being placed in 'concentration camps:' report in c/conservative@lemm.ee
[–] JAWNEHBOY@reddthat.com 7 points 2 months ago

Sure doesn't seem baseless. There's still a lot of anti-LGBTQ violence in the USA, and trans folks especially have been targeted at a federal level. Wouldn't blame 'em for wearing a plate or carrying a pack with a plate while they're armed

? Why decry gun ownership now? I thought the conservative party was about small government, fiscal responsibility, and the 2nd amendment?

Paper creates a better physical trail to avoid tampering. The time commitment should be reduced by allowing voting by mail, even better if it's mandatory. Easily enforced with a tax break for participating and just sending back a receipt of vote recorded accurately.

How Well does Pop OS! Support Touch (reddthat.com)
 

Recently switched from windows 10 to Debian 12.5 bookworm since I have a unique setup (Nvidia 2070S GPU, 2 1080p monitors, Dell Canvas, and TV) and the default inclusion of Nvidia proprietary drivers and years of Wacom support have made everything workable (nearly out of the box!).

However, touch still isn't great. It works well in Xournal++ and decently in Krita, but struggles everywhere else as a mouse input.

I'm considering hopping to Pop OS! once a stable version of their much anticipated COSMIC DE launches since I love the upgrades over GNOME.

Anybody running a pen display similar to the Dell Canvas on Pop OS! that can speak to it's support for pen and touch input?

Will Corps ditch Windows over Recall for Linux? (reddthat.com)
 

What do y'all think? Does switching to Linux as an entire corporation mean RedHat? Or could it be done on a distro like Debian?

Carrying Case? (reddthat.com)
 

Howdy!

I have a keeb.io cepstrum split board that I'd like to travel with when I head into the office. Anybody have good experiences with a carrying case they could recommend? My cepstrum is 8 inches / 20.5 cm by 4.5 inches / 11 cm for reference.

Reading direction should be inverted: we should read pages bottom to top (reddthat.com)
 

If I could flip a switch and change this one aspect of modern life, I'd be willing to re-learn all my old reading/writing habits. It just makes more sense to "build" ideas upward.

Update: Amazing Customer Service! (reddthat.com)
 

My last post

I recently posted looking for help diagnosing my D4K which all of a sudden stopped outputting anything from the main emitters. After trying all the suggested troubleshooting steps, I decided I'd just have to talk to Hank himself and see if he'd send me a boost driver for free so I could attempt to replace it with some soldering advice from YouTube.

I was already saving up for a DW4 as my next light, but with the sale I had to jump on an M44 too. I emailed Hank after placing my order, and he quickly responded that the solder job would be difficult, and he'd include a brand new head for my D4K with my order!

With all the rave reviews about Hank's customer service I thought he'd do me a solid with the driver, but I did not expect basically an entire new light!

Now the hard part is deciding what to order next. . .

Dead D4K? (reddthat.com)
 

Hi all,

I've had my cyan D4K Hanklight for only a few months (ordered in April) and I can't seem to get my main emitters to turn back on? I had the light on while cable managing my PC and all of a sudden it turned off. I didn't touch the switch, it just cut off.I checked the cell first which runs fine in my K1 and was at 60% capacity. I've tried these 2 factory reset methods:

  1. 13H (I held for 5 seconds), and
  2. disconnect tail cap, hold switch, reconnect tail cap, release after 4 seconds.

Neither appear to do anything. The auxillary LEDs are still running in low mode, but I can't seem to change them with the usual 7C for mode and 7H for color.

Is there any possibility my dedomed 519A emitters are still alive and kicking? Or should I just order a "domed" normal version?

Thanks for reading!
