You can do trade only with contacts. If you don't know someone it's hard to trade.

They're using GPL in that repo. Is that only partially?

I think the alternative payment systems in the developing countries are actually good. UPI in India is very utilitarian. China also has the wechat thing. I guess the issue with these are that they are not universal and limited to a single country.

Afaik, unless lemmy.ml had patched the vulnerability like the lemmy.world folks, the instance is susceptible to the vulnerability.

Resolving touchpad presses while typing (linuxtouchpad.org)

I have been facing the annoying issue of touchpad presses while typing since my last reinstallation. I had never faced a similar situation before (or I never noticed). The disable-while-typing gnome dconf was set to false. The issue was apparently with libinput not recognizing my touchpad as internal. Thankfully, that can be fixed with a quirk file. This askubuntu answer further clarified on how to write the quirk.

On the side note, I figured out how to disable the touchpad while I am using an external mouse.

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.peripherals.touchpad send-events disabled-on-external-mouse

Although it sucks that this is not something I can just use the settings GUI for, I am glad I could figure it out before I lost my mind! ;)
