And some states while not having banned it outright have made it effectively impossible to carry out. Oregon IIRC had their execution chamber and death row dismantled when their last governor left office. Execution is still on the books though.

I see a lot of people in here using hledger or beancount over ledger. Could somebody explain the differences? Looking to get back into PTA, but am facing some choice paralysis now.

Matt Groening grew up in Springfield, OR (also Portland, the streets names sharing a lot of character's names), it was only after he placed it in Springfield that he realized Springfield could be anywhere. He apparently makes direct references to local landmarks and establishments, and certain characters are rumored to have been based off of locals.

It sounds like the only difference between makyo and what you've experienced is whether you think it's 'real' or not...but I don't have a whole lot of detail to go on here, either. I'm not judging the 'realness', I'm just saying that two similar methods are producing similar results. At least subjectively.

Thanks, it sounds a little like zazen, but with makyo being the goal.

The worst part about controls inside the titlebar is things like Firefox and Chromium which implement their own decorations and window design with the tabs ending up in 95% of your draggable titlebar area, so you often end up moving the tab instead of moving the window. I'm not sure who will blink first with the lousy design situation, but the users are paying the price. (Honestly browsers just need to change this...Gnome is most people's default and they've shown themselves to be pretty damned stubborn)
