If you could take a single character out of a piece of media (book, film, TV show, video game, etc) who would it be?
They would lose any magical powers they may have had in the book, but anything they are, rather than can do, will stay. For example people from the His Dark Materials world would keep their daemons.

Enabling Tap-to-click in SDDM Wayland (Fedora 40 Sway)? (SOLVED)
Essentially as the title says, I’m running SDDM with the Wayland backend on Fedora 40 Sway edition and I want to enable tap-to-click for my touchpad. Any ideas on how I can do that?
