Anyone else read these newsletter titles in Pixlriff's voice? "This week, in ~~Hermitcraft~~ Gnome!"

iOS also supports third-party passkey managers so that's an alternative to Android for helping to fill gaps creating passkeys.

Nice! I may take a look. I've been happy with Enpass except that I recently switched to a window manager that doesn't implement xwayland, and Enpass is one of only two apps that I haven't gotten working in native wayland mode, or found a substitute for. So I've been running Enpass in a rootful xwayland window running a nested i3 session. The IPC connection to the browser extension still works so it's not too bad, but I'm a little tempted to try alternatives.

I forgot to mention that to use a passkey manager on Android in addition to setting that Chrome feature flag you also need to set the app as your passkey manager. That's done at the system level in Settings > Passwords & accounts > Passwords, passkeys, and data services

FYI I've been running Steam and Wine games in Gamescope because I'm using a window manager that doesn't implement XWayland. I don't know if that would help with Nvidia, but might be worth a try. It works ok; Gamescope has a Steam integration switch that helps.

I think Electron apps mostly switch to native Wayland mode if you set an environment variable, ELECTRON_OZONE_PLATFORM_HINT=wayland. The one I don't have working in Wayland mode is Discord. See https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/wayland#Electron

I read a few articles. I think Andres Freund's announcement gave me the best context for the exploit itself. https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2024/03/29/4

The most helpful source I saw on which systems are affected was this Lemmy post, https://beehaw.org/post/12813772

I have a Ryzen 7 5800X and I've had no problems

I would install a systemd user service with the setting Restart=always. If your window manager is started with systemd, or defines a systemd target you can configure the waybar service to start and stop automatically with the window manager.

Ooh - thanks for the tip!

Yeah, the first thing I do when I log in is restore my Firefox session, which includes several windows with quite a lot of tabs. I also use the Auto Tab Discard extension so I can keep lots of tabs in my workspace without having all of them loaded all the time.

Yeah, I stopped using display scaling and switched to this text scaling setting to get a similar result in a cleaner way,

$ gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface text-scaling-factor 1.25
