The Jewish Soviet Woman whose pioneering research on autism was stolen by Nazi scientists (en.wikipedia.org)
 

Two decades before Asperger and Kanner, Sukhareva was researching autism in children. Her contributions were likely not acknowledged because of her Jewish heritage.

Are you using Wayland? What has your experience been like so far? (lemmygrad.ml)
 

I took Plasma's Wayland session for a spin a few months back but it had too many small annoyances for me to daily drive so I switched back to X11. However, now I started noticing horrible screen tearing in Flatpak applications and lo and behold, as soon as I switched to Wayland they disappeared. It's really frustrating because most of not all of the little annoyances persist, I had to look up how to run Yakuake under X11 so it wouldn't just appear in the middle of my screen for example, but I'd rather deal with them than with screen tearing so I guess this is my life now.

I just wanted to get out my frustrations and also find out if anyone else has had problems. It seems to me Wayland is far from ready for prime time on Plasma.

I'm a man (in public at least lol) and I send hearts to pretty much everyone I consider a friend, of all genders.

What is your favorite password manager? in c/privacy@lemmy.ml

I only ever used Bitwarden after I switched from Dashlane and I couldn't be happier. The Android app is incredible, it's got a great browser extension and it syncs for free. If you don't trust them to store your passwords on the cloud I understand that but I wouldn't know what alternative to recommend.

Is there research on how a transition from cars to trains might be achieved? Or any examples? (lemmygrad.ml)
 

The cities where I live where obviously designed for cars, are there any proposals on how to transition cities built to favour cars over to other forms of transportation or examples of cities that have done so? I know it's probably possible but my imagination is limited.

Oh yeah I'm definitely going with KDE, I'm very much not a gnome person, happy to hear it's been a good experience!

I've been using endeavouros for a while now, but want to switch to a point release because I'm not in a position to do massive updates every few days anymore

How to use touchpad gestures in wayland session? (lemmygrad.ml)
 

I've tried installing libinput-gestures-qt, set gestures to plasma default, set the daemon to autostart and restarted the system and three finger swipes do absolutely nothing. Is there something I'm doing wrong?
