Yes I do care.

I don’t care about literally everything. But I do about most of it and love seeing it.

Passkeys are basically passwords that you don’t send to the server. So they are safer against phishing.

Basically the server has a message. They will scramble it with your public key. And send it to you. Your private key unscrambles the message and then you send the message back to them. So if they receive the original message back. They know you are you. And they never got their hands on your private key at any point. It’s awesome.

2fa is an entirely different thing. And I do wish it was more standard how it works. Some places if you lose it you lose your account (bitwarden). Others you don’t (protonmail).

Everyone should use passkeys. 2fa you have to decide if your case warrants it.

Edit: example of passkeys:

Step 1: they have the message “cat”

Step 2: they encrypt it with your public key and it becomes “acm”

Step 3: they send you the encrypted message “acm”

Step 4: you decrypt the message “acm” into “cat” with your private key.

Step 5: you send them back the message “cat”

Only your private key would be able to decrypt something encrypted with your public key. So they now know you are you. And they never got a hand on your private key. It’s the same as a password except you never send it directly to the server.

Personal stuff is mostly on my phone. And I’ll just sync to the computer what’s needed.

All my code and projects are on GitHub/codeberg.

All my personal info and photos are on proton drive.

If Linux shits itself (and it does often) who cares. I can have it up and running again in a fresh install in ten minutes.

Oh. I tried a bit before giving up. But lack of compatibility plus the insanely unreliable pixel battery just made me switch back to iPhone.

Thank you for the link though.

Tried to switch to graphene for a bit. Way too many apps don't work in it.

Definitely an inconvenient thing.

Funny. I didn't know a single thing about the person. But that commit message made me like him more.

Ofc assuming he was just making a light-hearted joke in it.

Depends on the license I suppose.

Most of the issue is that they're unreliable. Sometimes the app will work. Sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes you have to fiddle blindly with flatseal settings, which ones? Who knows? Guessing is part of the fun.

It'd be a great thing if it just worked.

Is not using Adobe a realistic option in professional settings atm?

Just go on Khan academy and do a lesson a day. It will take time(years) but you'll learn.

Nah, I wanna hear about bugs that have affected you that you can confirm are bugs :-)

I'm glad you asked. 5 seconds ago gnome froze and sent me back into the login screen and closed all the apps I had open. Ask me again in 20 seconds and I'm sure I'll have a different bug for ya.

Do you want a link to a bugtracker or what.

It does not depend on what you're using. They're all buggy.

I have yes.

I can forgive the lack of support. That comes with time and adoption.

What makes it bad for me is how buggy every single DE is.

I'd never admit it irl or to anyone I know because it's petty. But it bothers me when cs people refer to themselves as engineers.

Referring to themselves as scientists would seriously be a step past that.
