Some keyboard issues are beyond explanation.
A certain (very expensive) keyboard I am using has dead arrow buttons.
If i keep hammering them for minutes non-stop, they eventually revive and start working perfectly. For a while.
About 10 to 15 minutes later they are dead again. Rinse and repeat.
There are craptons of Mastodon instances aimed at discussing Linux and FOSS.
That I have not been able to find a single Microsoft or Windows-focused instance says a lot about Mastodon's target audience.
It goes far beyond the physical design of keyboards and mice too.
Look at keyboard shortcuts across all operating systems and see which hand they are favouring.
The current keyboard and mouse landscape is totally predisposed to right-handers.
No surprise left-handers end up forcing themselves to adapt.
My bluetooth keyboard keeps randomly skipping keystrokes.
And it's extremely difficult to determine if the problem is due to:
- crappy bluetooth stack in the OS
- crappy bluetooth keyboard
- crappy bluetooth radio on the computer
or just all of the above.
Sure, everything the US doesn't like is Russian-funded. Or part of a Russian disinformation campaign. And the people who disagree are paid Russian agents.
How convenient that the millions of people who claim to never trust a word from the US government suddenly lap up every claim about "Russian interference" from them as an undeniable truth. Especially during election time.
Today's it's Russia. Who shall it be next week? Next month? Iran? North Korea? And back to Russia again 4 years later?
This thing about Zero Trust security is just nuts.
The whole premise of trusting no one, no device and no system, regardless of whether they are within or outside the network sounds sensible on paper.
And its advocates and proponents enforce Zero Trust by placing an awful lot of trust in network policies, firewalls, IPS, IDS, cloud-based EDR / XDR and SIEM systems. And even the security guard at the doors of the datacentre.
Zero Trust? What Zero trust? Sound more Selective Trust. 🙄
As always, the fear mongering and "oh, my mother says blahblah" anecdotal evidence and trashtalking against Windows are out in full force by Linux retards and hipsters.
Fun fact: I've talked to my mother, who is currently still on #Windows10, about #Windows11 and #WindowsRecall and she was like "nah, I don't want that". Then I said "well basically everything you're doing is in the browser anyway, I could set up your machine with #Linux …" and she was like "yeah, why not?" Folks, #Recall is making my mom, a non-techie who is a year from retirement, migrate to Linux! This is awesome.
