What are using lol? I have never been asked to plug in my phone to a computer. I have use Bitwarden and KeepassXC and also used my phone to scan the QR in chromium browsers for passkeys and it just worked in all the browsers flawlessly (even ungoogled chromium). I just want Linux Distros to allow setup a default password manager for the user and implement passkeys auth mechanism for the apps installed in the device.

But what’s dystopian about passkeys? They are actually more secure than Password + TOTP. Phishing out a passkey is practically impossible.

I am not dependent on any ecosystem for passkeys. I have a self-hosted vaultwarden instance that works with Bitwarden clients. I create and store my passkeys over there primarily and in my keepass db (which I primarily use for TOTPs) for redundancy. So if either one gets compromised, I can just delete the passkey for the accounts involved in that database.

The ultimate 2 is over 100$ more expensive than the ultimate c wired and 50$ more than the official Xbox one. (All of this in rough ₹ to $ conversion) Interestingly, I just searched Amazon and I had to scroll down quite a bit to find the 2c wireless which is actually cheaper than Ultimate C wired (at 81% discount like wtf?!), so now I might go for that one. Thanks.

Edit: Sorry that 2C was just for the Nintento Switch. The reviews mentioned it didn’t support PCs. So now the actual 2c is 20$ more expensive than the Xbox. Now I am confused to put in the extra and go for the ultimate 2 lol.

Thanks. Unfortunately this one’s on the expensive side and I am not a hardcore gamer. I think I will go with the ultimate C wired as it is in my budget as well as seems to work with Linux (atleast via steam; got mixed reviews with Lutris from some folks in the comments).

Does 8bitdo work well with Lutris? I saw a video posted 5 years ago where you had to add Lutris to Steam and launch it from there for the controllers to work.

Well I have never used any controller or a console before. For almost 20 years I have been a keyboard+mouse guy. So for me, a plug and play controller would be nice. Bluetooth is not a priority for me rn. Given that as well as all the advice in the comments, I am leaning towards this one.

Yeah I was looking at that as a lot of folks mentioned the brand. The wireless is super expensive, even more than the original xbox controller. But the wired one is literally half the price.

The uptime is too good to be a simulation. It has an uptime of like 14 billions years! AWS has a lot of catching up to do. /s

It used to be a crime until 2018 until the supreme court ruled against it. But it is still a stigma.

Indian Smuts slop.

Tried that 3 years and got called out as paranoid. 🥲

Tell this to my family who thinks it is the most revolutionary piece of technology ever created and shun me to speak out. :(

I think maybe because majority of the popular channels are either Bhakti Channels, News Outlets or this bullshit. And they just want people to get hooked to the constant dopamine from religious propaganda, Godi Media’s political propaganda and Attention capitalization of Sex Deprived people in a country where sex is a Taboo. These are the factors that help them strengthen their position in this country. You can see it on other Meta Platforms as well. Most of the content over there is similar.

Ikr. At this point I won’t even be surprised if it is some fat ass uncle who is into pedophelia handling this shit who shits his RSS-BJP (nazis of India) propaganda to others.

Still no Linux support.

I will stick with FOSS stuff and when needed, Black Flag Adobe in Windows VM.

Honestly… I don’t even know. Looking at the quality of images most of them seem fake channels — the original images seem to have been scraped from personal FB/Insta or some malicious app on someone’s phone that has full gallery access or maybe ex-boyfriends making their lives a hell. But some of them… yes, they seem Onyfanish type accounts who later start promoting some small brands to make a buck. Most of these channels seem to come from small towns and tier 2 cities.

Privacy, user control and consent means nothing to these companies.

Honestly I wouldn’t care about the stuttering and sluggishness.

As much as I hate Google, I will have to admit that Google Maps is one of the best pieces of software ever to exist. I try to use Organic Maps and OSMand but Google Maps is just much upto date, has reviews, has real time traffic updates along with road closures. OSM based maps and Apple Maps is way way way way way behind — atleast in my country.

Whotf even used Apple Maps lol
