I don't know much about LNA, but recently configured my new Ducky keyboard via duckyhub.io. I had to configure some udev rules[1], and use Chromium instead of Firefox, but it worked in the end. [1] similar to this IIRC: https:/&#

Latin Sütterlin ( https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ausgangsschrift#/media/Datei:S... ) has an x without backtracking. At first it looks a bit weird with the two loops, but I think they are exaggerated for didactic

Some people have an arrow on top of their head, and when you approach them there is a dialog balloon with "...". If you click on them they give you a task.

You are comparing the regulation of business practices to the breach of human rights. Do you also think your water company should be allowed to poison the water coming from your tap?
