It seems to me an alternative way to protest the Age Verification laws, at least in California and Colorado, is to stop creating user accounts at all. If there's no account setup, nor any account holder, these laws don't clearly apply.

Why does your OS need to know anything about you at all? You might want a PIN or passphrase to keep your computer locked, and you might log into some accounts from the web browser, but there's almost no value in an OS storing any personal details about you.

At Amazon in the old days Kerberos would tell you it was about time you went home by expiring your ticket. I liked that.

Now I've got Claude Code compactions increasing as the day progresses. It's less deterministic, and way more annoying, but it's still a reminder that I've been at it a while.

This is good parenting advice too.

I'm using GNOME in earnest for the first time in many years. There's a lot to like, but the focus / raise behavior is a mess. I shouldn't have to click on a notification to raise a window that I opened by some action I took.

I get not wanting to have a new window open in front of your work, but that's never been a major issue for me on chromeOS, Windows, or macOS.

I've been tweaking settings to try to get what I expect, but it looks like it might not be possible?
