[…] Let’s say that you have two lines in a 90 degree corner. If you add a line in the middle of any of the two lines, the cursor shows you that it will add a coincident constraint. But when you create your line, the coincident constraint isn’t applied. […]

What you're describing sounds more like a bug to me. At any rate, I wasn't able to confirm the behavior you described (maybe I'm misunderstanding you?):

^[1]^

I was able to get both a symmetric constraint (green arrow), and a coincident constraint (red arrow) on the two 90 degree lines.

[…] Federation ensures that articles get mirrored across many servers […]

IIUC, articles only mirror between two instances A, and B once they've been manually discovered, right? By "discover" I mean copying the URL to one article on an instance A ^[1]^, and searching that URL on an instance B ^[1]^ for said article on A to be mirrored on B.

on How do you calibrate controller deadzones? · c/linux_gaming · 1 pts · 159d

IIUC, their solution is to run a script every time one wants to launch a game with the desired controller calibration ^[1]^; this does not feel ideal to me.

[…] you can use Steam’s controller settings to expand the dead zones. […]

I tried this, but I can't get it to work: to use steam's deadzone control, I need to enable Steam Input ^[2]^, but when I do that, my controller no longer works in games ^[1]^.

[…] Make sure the kcm-joystick package is installed for KDE.

On Arch Linux ^[1]^, that package doesn't appear to exist ^[2]^.
