AFAICT, my Debian uses X by default.  I see nothing about Wayland.
Larry apparently thinks all distros are alike, which he's partially
right about, they're all superior to his ridiculous, lacking a modern
browser, no DE, retardo setup.

Amendment XIV
Section 1.

[...] No state shall make or enforce any law which shall
abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the
United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of
life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;
nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal
protection of the laws.

Dobbs rewrites this, it is invalid precedent.  States are
liable for denying needed abortions, e.g. TX.
