Is the lesson "why throw snowballs at cars when you could be having a snowball fight with a robot instead?"

Former South Australian Liberal party leader David Speirs was fined A$9,000 (£4311; $5,720) and ordered to complete 37.5 hours of community service by an Adelaide court on Thursday.

For context on that sentence:

It is illegal to make, keep, use, sell or give away cocaine. The maximum penalty for possession, supplying or administering a controlled drug that is not a commercial or trafficable quantity (unless in a prescribed area) is $50,000 or imprisonment for 10 years or both. For larger quantities, these constitute major indictable offences and attract a maximum penalty that varies (depending on the quantity involved) between $50,000 to $1,000,000 or imprisonment for 15 years to life or both.

Seems low compared to the maximum, but I have no idea how similar cases are sentenced. I just hope he didn't get off lightly for being a notable person.

For what it's worth, I regularly switch depending on what I'm doing (AwesomeWM for X11 and Hyprland for Wayland)

If you're fine with Wayland, go with Wayland. There are lots of reasons still that people might prefer X11 but the list has been getting shorter.

• The security model of Wayland is more restrictive than necessary for many users and means things like screen sharing and desktop toys are harder and not universally implemented or doable.
• Wayland effectively requires many things to be handled by the same process, preventing traditional modular environments (e.g. separating window manager from compositor no longer possible)
• Explicit compositor support required for more features, meaning having a feature complete environment in small projects is much harder, and the design of Wayland tends to promote a few large desktop environments rather than many small window managers.
• NVidia's support for Wayland is still improving
• Wayland can't rotate your screen to be on an angle to maximise the length of a line
• Several programs I rely on don't support Wayland well yet
  • Steam doesn't stream from Wayland
  • Transparent bits of FreeCAD show the background instead of what's behind them
  • Code-OSS required a very silly workaround for decent font rendering, although I think this might have been fixed in electron

This is explicitly described as avoiding entrapment. I don't see it as reasonable to take any political or theological teaching from this. Especially since Jesus left the Pharisees to make the connection and avoided telling anybody to pay taxes.

You can also do that in Tubular, if you prefer a FOSS option

Microwave ovens are also non-ionising. Non-ionising radiation can cause things to heat up, but lacks the subtle damage that ionising radiation can do.

Mobile phone radiation is non-ionising. There is no known mechanism for it giving you cancer. Regardless of mechanism there's ample research on the topic, and no sign of a link

Despite the headline, this is being done by Thunderbird, not Mozilla

Thunderbird is completely independent of the Mozilla Corporation, the makers of Firefox. But the Mozilla Coperation[sic] supports Thunderbird by hosting many of the Thunderbird infrastructure and resources.

You don't happen to know what whereabouts in legislation that's detailed, do you?

If it helps to relate it to something else, "you" also has plural grammar but can refer to a singular.
