  • Ah. If we're talking mobile, all bets are off. FIDO prompts require Apple and Google to provide the necessary APIs for third-party devs to use, and are still somewhat new. It's likely that since iOS browsers are still just re-skinned WebKit (until the EU stuff settles and Mozilla implements Gecko on iOS), FF on iOS can leverage the OS APIs, but making it work with Gecko on Android requires more work.

    I was referring to desktop, where those limitations aren't a hindrance.

  • Correct. The spec is about making it easier and more secure to export your passwords and passkeys when you move from one password manager to another. People are misunderstanding this as some sort of federated authentication system to share your credentials between multiple password managers at the same time, which it is not.

  • FYI: the people in here recommending the open source competitors for Yubico aren't mentioning one thing: YubiKeys, being proprietary, support a proprietary protocol called Yubico OTP in addition to the FIDO authentication protocol that the open source competitors can do.

    The reason this matters is that some applications, like the Linux Bitwarden desktop app (there are others, but this is one that I've had to deal with), don't support FIDO authentication, but do support Yubico OTP. This means that, for those apps, the open source keys wouldn't be a valid authentication method.

    Granted, the number of applications like this are small, and probably grows smaller by the day, but it's an important distinction to be aware of.

  • Yeah. I intentionally buy my games on Steam for ethical reasons because Valve contributes to a positive gaming ecosystem by making things run seamlessly on Linux.

    GOG contributes to a negative gaming ecosystem by making Windows the "easy" option and not making use of Proton (or similar tech). Hopefully they fix that one day, but they don't seem to care.

  • This is what so many people on Lemmy seem to be missing: Biden is ideologically Zionist.

    As a politician, he's taken less lobbying money than most (broadly, not just from AIPAC). He's bought into the cause of building an ethnostate, as much as he lies when he claims to disagree with Netanyahu.

  • I started disabling JavaScript by default with uBlock Origin a few months ago. I am surprised to report that a bunch of sites work fine without JavaScript.

    There are definitely some sites that actually need it, and for those, it's just one click to permanently allow for that site. But most of the sites I need work better with just CSS and HTML because there are no stupid nags or social media sign-in buttons that pop-up anymore.

  • I have the ZSA Moonlander and Voyager keyboards. I like them a lot.

    I also have the Ploopy Adept and Nano mice that also run QMK.

    I bought all of them preassembled. I'd love to know what other brands are out there that sell preassembled peripherals that can run open firmware.

  • +1 for Ploopy mice. I have the Ploopy Adept, and I'll never go back to another mouse. They mostly make trackballs, but they do have a "regular" mouse if trackballs aren't your thing.

    The biggest problem with Ploopy is that they only seem to make mice for people with bigger hands, so if that's not you, you're kind of screwed :/

  • Seriously. I'm really into keyboards with QMK, but I buy prebuilt keyboards and mice that are capable of running it because if using QMK required me to solder something, I wouldn't be able to. Soldering is a skill that most people don't have.

  • Dana Fash and Snake Tapper should be fired for lying about this shit. It's easily verifiable and they certainly knew it was a lie given that they never bothered to contact Tlaib for response (what real journalists do).

    But CNN is a right-wing rag and racism is encouraged as long as it's toward Palestinians.

  • That's an interesting way of framing Russia ending the world in a nuclear holocaust because Ukraine didn't want to be a part of Russia's sphere of influence.

    It would be best for everyone if Russia would stop the escalation, and I hope they do. If not, we have to find a better solution to imperialism than appeasement, because that doesn't work long-term either.
