Ryujinx did everything right and legal. Let's see how Nintendo supporters try to justify this one.

Follow the money.
I do. I follow the $23,000,000 the EPA just gave to my department to reduce methane emissions in my state from funding that the Biden administration made happen.
Don't know how it's not obvious that they won't gut the EPA. The Biden administration added a ton of funding to the EPA for climate action. It's a priority for them.
Come on man, if you can't tell the difference between judges appointed under Democrats vs those under Republicans, I don't know how to show you. Looking at the supreme court voting record is a pretty clear sign there. John Oliver just did a piece on this last night that is worth checking out.
There are already bills that are getting support from lots of Democrats in the House and Senate to provide similar protections that Chevron deference gave. I say "might" because of course this is only going to happen with strong Democrat control of both the House and the Senate.
Similar to Chevron deference, bills have been brought forward that have broad support among Democrats for trans healthcare and abortion access.
Democrats, like you said, are not saviors. They at-best react to Republicans and Republican-appointed judges doing evil shit when they are in power, or providing "solutions" that barely scratch the surface of the work/funding needed. Democrats have not had the political power to push these bills through since the Republicans did the evil shit they are reacting to. It's pretty disingenuous to blame them for these bills not passing in the system we have.
Sure, they're not some savior, but they won't gut the EPA, the might not replace Laila Khan, they won't continue to fill the courts with extremely right-wing judges which will take decades to overcome, they might be able to replace Chevron deference with legislation, and they might be able to put some protections into place for abortion access and healthcare for trans people.
It doesn't, but for me anyway, the implications of another Trump presidency or Republicans controlling both houses are terrifying.
People can live with some traffic or construction woes as we struggle for a better transportation system.
There are real differences between Republican and Democrat control that will have serious impacts on healthcare, climate change, and the courts, on top of the awful shit that both parties do.
I hate that I'm voting the way I am because I'm more scared of one candidate than the other, but each year is crucial for climate change, and 4 years of a gutted EPA is reeeeeeaaaaallllly bad.
I was able to get my invidious instance back up and running for the last week or so using the instructions in the invidious docs, but this process is a bandaid, and I expect it will be shut down again soon, unfortunately.
The main thing I have learned after switching to Linux full-time is that weird, proprietary hardware like this is almost never a good idea, for many reasons. It's very easy to make labels for keys if you really want to, and if you need more functionality, having more buttons instead of layers is always going to be faster to learn and use. Especially if you are trying to use this as a home automation interface, it's probably a better idea to have either a touch screen or a separate screen and keypad.
Sure, this thing looks nice, but in a couple years (at most) it will be e-waste.
They only list support for Windows and MacOS on their site. The answer is almost certainly no, it doesn't work with Linux. People may reverse engineer it like they did with the Stream Deck or GoXLR devices, but don't hold your breath. Your best alternative would be something like this: https://drop.com/buy/megalodon-doio-hot-swappable-rgb-30-keyboard?defaultSelectionIds=970727
EDIT: Or, you could build your own without the need of a raspberry pi using something like this: https://www.instructables.com/STREAM-DECK-KILLER-and-OpenSource/
Yeah, I think there is some confusion here. This isn't to protect a computer, it's to cycle all the air in a room in a few minutes and filter down to pm2.5. HVAC filters are a very different kind of product than what this company offers.
These companies are getting this pressure because they are well known and because of coordinated collective action against them. By all means, avoid them. That said, there are tons of reasons that people still buy from these companies.
For 3M, they produce the most readily available and performant masks, respirators, air filters and adhesives, which are a necessity in a lot of situations. For instance, I build my own air purifiers using standard HVAC filters and PC fans for myself and friends/family (so that they have have repairable units that use standard parts), and often 3M filters are the only performant ones that I can buy while avoiding Amazon, another company worth boycotting. In addition to that, 3M products are used in sooo much stuff these days that it's very easy to support them without knowing about it.
For Starbucks, I know of quite a few towns where Starbucks is the only coffee shop (because they aggressively forced out the competitors), and there is no library or similar public space available. I'm sure as hell not going to tell the people of that town where Starbucks is the only quiet place that they can read or work or get a coffee that they are the problem here.
There are tons of other, similar situations that force or heavily influence people to buy from shitty companies.
On top of that, I'm positive that the vast majority of alternatives are similarly bad, and they just haven't been the target of collective action yet. There is no ethical consumption under capitalism.
This whole argument gives very "yet you participate in the system, how curious" energy, and is pretty divorced from reality.
Trying to configure Sway in NixOS. I gave up and just use KDE Plasma. I do miss using Sway from when I used Arch, though.
