I stopped using them altogether when my job provisioned a YubiKey. Got one for personal usage and it's pretty solid for just about everything I'd have used a fingerprint sensor for.

If a universal basic income started today with the stipulation that you had to put 40 hrs/wk towards making the world a better place or solving societal problems, how would you spend your time? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world

Probably just spend more time contributing to foss projects. Maybe write technical documentation.

I've just assumed they don't care. They've done scummy shit for years, and it doesn't really matter because they'll still sell massive amounts of their first-party titles. So any bad faith they garner with a subset of their audience or old fans is just dust in the wind since it won't ultimately impact sales.

Would be really cool to see these new Snapdragon X Elite laptops shipping with Linux.

The future's looking bright for those Russian knock-off Steam Decks.

Ohio high school English teacher, Jennifer Ruziscka, resigns after OnlyFans account discovered in c/news@lemmy.world

Absolutely. You shouldn't have to dump 30+ years of your life into your job just to get a wage that should be the baseline salary for your job.

I strongly agree with both points, but it should be noted she was making almost 75k as a teacher according to the article which is definitely on the high end for Ohio teachers

was also a cheerleading coach and yearbook adviser with a salary of $74,720 at the time she resigned.

Edit:
Reading more into the article, she's been teaching for 30 years. 75K for that sort of experience is ridiculous

Watching CinemaSins so much, I get inclined to go "Roll Credits!" anytime I hear someone mention the title of the movie they're in lol.

Is anyone using Asahi Linux? (kbin.social)
 

If so how is it? I'm heavily considering grabbing an M1 and trying it out if it's in a state where I can be productive.

For context, I use an M1 for work and it's awful only thanks to macOS. The hardware is excellent though. I can run an army of containers for hours, I can have OBS running in the background if I need to quickly record something, and I can have 2-3 JetBrains IDEs running without skipping a beat.

But I truly cannot comfortably use macOS in my personal space. I don't really want to go into my gripes with macOs; suffice to say it's not a route I'm willing to explore any further.

That said, I've tried to keep up with Asahi Linux but have not seen very much feedback from those who are using it.

If you are using it I'd love to hear some feedback on what you like or dislike about it. Does all your hardware work? Do all your standard linux applications work?

Edit: I dont really know how crossposting works in the Fediverse. Sorry if this thread shows up twice
