Hey, so, weird Linux question

I ran this script that talks to the serial port https://mastodon.social/@mcc/111270685822595407

It uses PySerial

It only works if I run as root

The device is owned by the "dialout" group, so I added myself to the dialout group— id(1) confirms I'm in the group

But I'm still being denied

What am I missing? I tried logging Wayland out and back in.

Is there something I have to do to like… rehash group privs?
