Souls-like, but not as difficult.

Gonna be real difficult to recover from if you lose the device with your passkeys on it or that device is broken.

Couple that with eSIMs and you are looking at a lot of headaches for the non-tech savvy.

Supposedly you can use a security key but they are pushing biometrics, yikes!

Wait until passkeys and all their issues have been solved by the major players.

Don’t lock yourself out of your digital life chasing something flashy and new.

So you agree that both sides are doing terrible things and there are no good guys in this situation? Just innocents caught in the middle.

I’ll admit, the reason I ended up reading the whole article were the words “Ben Schwartz.”

Scott Aukerman is an absolute wreck over this news.

In the “never realized dreams” department, two of my friends and I had always hoped to see Electric Six live and hidden under our shirts have a big number six painted on each of our chests.

So halfway through the hot concert we could rip off our shirts for a 666 dance.

I’ve been working on my patented AI dowsing rod…

Does lemmy.world not let you edit your comments?

He asks maybe three or four times, tops.

…still too many…

Other devs, please follow suit.

This industry needs class consciousness in it yesterday.

Just because you’re paid well doesn’t mean you’re not being mistreated.

It’s valid to be thankful for what you have but to also know you deserve more.

You got your music in my Android custom recovery!

You got your Android custom recovery all in my music!

I have no idea how these taste together, I just know I thought this was about unlocking the bootloader and installing a custom operating system.

Cheers, mate! I don’t use Apple stuff very often, but I do strongly respect their engineering and the fact that they’re certified UNIX for macOS.

There just needs to be far less gatekeeping and acting like one solution fits all in the PC community in general.

Who isnt going to go along with it?

Gotta be like 90% of people have never installed an OS because Windows was already on their PC when they bought it.

To them, its part of buying a PC. They don’t consider the OS a separate purchase.

If they make this move they’re banking on people not noticing until after they’ve bought a shiny new PC. After that most people will suffer the cost because they already own the PC and its just “easier.”

I get that, but Windows/Powershell isn’t case-sensitive, so you can type it all lowercase if you want (I do).

Linux on the other hand is case sensitive despite most GNU tools defaulting to all lower case. There’s definitely a bunch of case-sensitive switches in Linux CLI applications.

There has been optional case-insensitive file system support in Linux for a few years now, though.

I would rag on Google here, but if you read this entire mastadon nitter thread, other people have already done a golden ass job of taking Google to task for this propaganda.

Nah, not dickish at all. None of us can know everything. I’d rather be informed that I’m wrong than continue walking around being wrong.

Google’s rejection of web standards and attempts to put in their own standards is half of what breaks shit anyway.

I’m glad they’re working with the G Workspace team, but Holy Hell, it’s been clear for a long time that Google, the company, isn’t a friend to Firefox, even if individual developers are.

They mainly pay for top search spot in Firefox as a bulwark against claims of monopolization.

Haven’t tried since but it’s a deal breaker for me. So I stay with Chrome.

“Google broke functionality in other browsers because of their near monopoly status, so I stick with their near monopoly because its easier.”

I mean, I’m sure Google is real glad you’ve chosen their browser spyware.

True, but if your repetitive, boring task can be replaced by a well-put-together Excel spreadsheet or a few simple scripts, you’re looking at replacing yourself at your own job.

I’ve definitely seen people replaced by the work-saving scripts they wrote. Corporate doesn’t care about pesky things like “maintenance” or “security updates” or even “that command we used in the script is now deprecated.” It works well enough now, and now they consider you “redundant.”

Some folks keep doing it the repetitive boring way to keep their bosses from shitcanning them for creating something their bosses are absolutely too dimwitted to do themselves. It’s never nice to do something that saves you effort and the response is your boss shitcanning you and then saying “I made this.”

Anyone who is anyone has fancy driving gloves, cap, and goggles!

Oop can’t forget the scarf!
