Agree. And as someone who planted that tree 25 years ago, the shade sure is nice year after year.

Yeah it just doesn't seem worth it when every keyboard one encounters outside of home will be qwerty.

I tried years ago and got up to about 25wpm on Dvorak before switching back. it was seeming like the juice wouldn't be worth the squeeze

My grandma never learned any computerized technology more complicated than a lamp timer

But hot dog she could program her VCR to record her soaps like a champ, even without the VCR+ codes

Did the kids just smoke somewhere else?

I don't think we had an official smoking section but there was always a big crowd in the parking lot (early 2000s)

I wish there was a middle ground. The grey market keys provide convenience that pirating doesn't, like steam activation.

I stopped using key resellers for games though after learning about how they're sourced

A week is recent enough to renew usually if you care

As far as I understand, if you're using k9, you're already trying it out.

The release of thunderbird will just be a second copy of the app with a new theme. Other than that k9 is getting all the features.

Apparently that good sound is due to extensive software processing. The asahi devs really want to make a good impression, so they're spending a lot of time tweaking their sound processing to try to match or beat the MacOS quality before release. Which is both good and annoying. I appreciate the attention to detail, but it would be nice to have any speaker support when I just need to hear something quickly.

The graphics drivers are still in active development, but they have OpenGL3.1 support. Vulkan is under development.

I haven't tried games, but have seen some posts where users have them working. I don't think many games are compiled for arm yet though. The graphics dev did a youtube stream back in march where she plays steam games using FEX-Emu. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJSfFzsU75g

They also said it was mandatory for all the students and teachers to use the stupid 2FA Microsoft app on our phone, but I’ve been using Keepass on desktop without problems (and even shown it to some students).

Yeah if they're just using the MS app for OTP generation, there's no reason to use that specific application. Keepass is perfectly fine.

Asahi is pretty great. Only issue for me personally is the lack of speaker support. Audio works fine through headphone jack or bluetooth though.

I was doing the same thing, but it’s a whole new world out there because of Proton.

Yep. I've been on linux for 20 years now, and haven't done much PC gaming for that reason, buying consoles instead. A bit of KSP and C:S and other native Linux games, but that's about it.

Recently got a steamdeck and was like holy shit, almost everything works well now without tweaks.

Went out and bought a GPU for my desktop last week. I'm ready for this era.
