⚖️ Montana just became the first U.S. state to ban law enforcement from purchasing personal data from brokers — and it’s a privacy milestone 🚫📱
Under this new law: 📍 Government agencies can’t buy sensitive data (location, biometrics, etc.) without a warrant 🔍 It closes a major loophole used to sidestep Fourth Amendment protections 📄 Agencies also can’t require people to waive rights through service terms 🧱 It sets a precedent for digital due process in a data-saturated world
This isn’t just a state law. It’s a model for what digital civil liberties legislation should look like nationwide.
Montana has done something that many states and the United States Congress have debated but failed to do: it has just enacted the first attempt to close the dreaded, invasive, unconstitutional, but easily fixed “data broker loophole.

Otto Kuusinen: As long as the working class wages only an economic struggle, the bourgeoisie does not see in that any great danger for itself; but when the working class organises politically, i.e., creates a political party which expresses its will as a class, the bourgeoisie begins seriously to fear for its rule. That is why reaction deals its main blows against the political party of the working class. At the same time, trying to undermine the party from within, capitalist propaganda endeavours to persuade the workers that they can do without their own party. One of the manifestations of bourgeois influence on the working class is the anarchist and anarcho-syndicalist denial of the leading role of a political party.

I'd like to never boot into Windows again. I have VirtualBox installed where I can install Windows 11 if I need to but is there anything that it(Windows on a VM) wouldn't be able to do like accessing hardware devices? Thanks in advance
It depends on what you’re studying. Some majors like accounting might require you to use Excel, for example. On the other hand, when I was getting my BS+MS in computer engineering, running Linux was actually advantageous
Yes, the price is the point. Excel (Office) is that dirt fucking cheap, industry standard, and comes with a bunch of other shit included that can be legitimate value add for a small business.
If you're at a firm that has legitimate need for specialized accounting software, you'll have enough money to get those. But even those generally export to Excel format. Without outing myself too much, I've had comsiderable exposure to financial tech over the last decade and less than 10 specialized accounting softwares I've seen couldn't export to Excel. All of those still exported to csv, or "software agnostic excel" if we want to bend things a bit.
The power of being industry standard for going on 30 years now cannot be overstated.
I got through University running Debian testing. It was mostly fine, some Linux based subjects were way easier without dealing with a VM (they recommended against WSL for some reason).
However there were a couple units that absolutely required you to use Visual Studio (non-code), I occasionally used a VM, the Uni IT also provided me with a remote VM (there's a form to fill and and it's all automated). But I mostly used Rider, which for one unit it confused their CI and I got mark down for (otherwise got top marks so it's fine).
For office, it didn't matter. Group projects mostly used Google Docs, occasionally Microsoft Office where the online version worked fine. All my units wanted PDFs at the end anyway, so it does not matter that you used LibreOffice or whatever. Some units provided you with DOCX templates, I had no issues opening them with LibreOffice.
Edit: People are mentioning online exams, my Uni did 'online quizzes' which worked fine, and some had to be done in class on their PCs anyway. Final exams where always done on paper.
Currently studying Computer Engineering. I did manage to get most stuff working without needing Windows.
It came usually at the cost of extra work, but I'd say it was worth it. So far I even got to writing makefiles for C++ projects targetting some Atmel chip (Microchip Studio is Windows only). And in some cases I even found better tools than what they privided us with.
Unless you need some very very specific program or run into some wierd constrains you will be fine.
Cannot speak for other schools in other countries (and I guess this question was targeted at colleges in USA), but I am currently studying Open informatics at Faculty of Electrical Engineering at Czech technical university in Prague and all the courses I have that are not mathematical, but require to use a computer do take into accoun t that you may not be using only Windows, but also MacOS or Linux. I haven't yet encounterered a software that we would be required to use and wouldn't work on Linux, nor did I have to go through any more hassle because I use Linux, but rather contrary to that. In some cases using Linux made things easier for me.

Hi, I've recently discovered that steam client on linux requires the XTEST extension to handle input from controller. However, I can not enable XTEST on gdm no matter what I've done. Switch to lightdm solves it instanly but I prefer gdm.
Could you provide some hint how to debug it and have you experienced that before? Thank you very much!
I have never heard about this, can you link to your source for this? Also what's the symptom here exactly?
AFAIK steam and games directly use the kernel devices for controller input, not any X11 extensions.
Edit: Wait!? Do you want to use the controller as keyboard + mouse? Inside of GDM? Because that might use XTEST after reading about it, since XTEST seems to be some kind of testing protocol that allows one to emulate a mouse.
No steam uses XTEST under the hood for controller. You can see a bug report here. You could try to disable the XTEST extensions and the steam client will crash if you connect with a controller.
For the symptom, If I do a xdpyinfo it will print a list of enabled extensions and no matter what i've tried it does not have the XTEST extension.
Your system information Steam client version (build number or date): Latest as of June 22 Distribution (e.g. Ubuntu): Debian bookworm Opted into Steam client beta?: [Yes/No] No Have you checked for...
Interesting. I will say I suspect still this is to make the controller act as a mouse or keyboard somehow, which steam can do.
One interesting thing is that it says in the bug report, that steam also requires uinput, which is used to create virtual input devices from userspace. And maybe (speculating) you need that for XTEST to work on wayland or something, or maybe steam can use uinput instead of XTEST if it's not available.
Or maybe it's security-related somehow (Regular programs being able to create virtual keyboards is kind of a security issue).
For me the output of getfacl /dev/uinput will list my username with read/write permissions. I have no idea what is responsible for giving me this permission but there it is.
Unfortunately I can not login with GDM using X. I am having the same bug as in here :/ For wayland, I have both read/write permissions for my username.
Also I can use the PS5 controller as a mouse just fine. Another symptom I see is when I run xdotool mousemove 150 150, it will print Warning: XTEST extension unavailable on '(null)'. Some functionality may be disabled; See 'man xdotool' for more info.. The null here is concerning to me. Not sure how it says on other system.
When you use lightdm, do you use it to log into a Gnome wayland session, same as with GDM? Or is there any other difference between using GDM and LightDM? What exactly is/isn't working, and how can you tell it is related to the XTEST extension?
Also I can use the PS5 controller as a mouse just fine.
Ok, this could maybe be the kernel driver creating a "real" touchpad device. Steam is able to create fake/virtual mouse and keyboard devices, I suspect that's what steam uses XTEST and/or uinput for. So even though your PS5 touchpad works, that does not invalidate my theory that steam wants XTEST for mouse/keyboard input fakery, because that's what exactly what XTEST is for.
So technically, Steam wouldn't require XTEST for controller input, it would require XTEST to map controller inputs to fake mouse or keyboard inputs. I don't know what exactly steam does if XTEST isn't present, like what exactly doesn't work?
And XTEST is an X11 protocol extension, it probably doesn't work properly under Wayland anyway.
The null here is concerning to me.
Dunno, '(null)' might just refer to the default connection (or server or screen or whatever X11 object this refers to), so not sure if this something to be concerned about. I presume X11 clients in general do work? Like xterm or xeyes work, right?
I am having the same bug as in here :/
The fact that you cannot log in may seem/look like that exact issue you linked to, but that's from 2019 and may have a different cause. In general, GDM will start some executable, (i.e. gnome-session or something like that, or at least it used to be gnome-session, haven't used gnome in a while) which if it exits/crashes this will kick you back to GDM. It could crash for many reasons.
You should check the logs for sure for both issues. X11 session logs (relating to Gnome X11 not starting), should be in ~/.xsession-errors (or ~/.xsession-errors.old for the previous session, I think). There may be a /var/log/Xorg.0.log for xorg, which I guess could also be the thing crashing (maybe). There may be other things logged with journald that could be relevant. journalctl --user should show all the logs for the user session. Logs from Gnome, since it runs as your user, would presumably show up there. My guess is all the relevant logs for a Gnome wayland session would also be there, as well as (hopefully) Xwayland errors/warnings, since Xwayland is actually the thing that would report it doesn't support XTEST.
Note that journalctl likes to show the oldest logs first, so look at the timestamps. You can press G to scroll to the end. There are various ways to filter messages, look at journalctl --help. You might want to use --grep to look for anything related to XTEST or xwayland.
Lightdm and GDM are systemd units (systemctl list-units), the logs would show with something like sudo journalctl -u lightdm.
