I installed Fedora as a dual boot 2 months ago, and I haven’t once booted up Windows in that time. Everything just worked. Now that I feel a bit more confident I’m going to wipe the entire drive and try Fedora Atomic.

The standalone Google Pay app will be shut down.

Google Wallet (which is almost certainly what you’re using) will still be functioning as normal.

And from the article in the OP:

I got ahold of the Copilot+ software and got it working on a system without an NPU about a week ago,

I got your exact same answer, but then I tried again prefacing the question with:

Can you help me with a puzzle?

This changed the answer drastically:

Great! Let’s solve this river crossing puzzle step by step. The key is to find a sequence of actions that gets the man and the goat safely across the river without leaving the goat unattended with something it might eat.

Given:

• A man and a goat are on one side of a river.
• They have a boat.

Step-by-step solution:

1. The man takes the goat in the boat and crosses the river.
2. The man leaves the goat on the other side of the river and returns alone in the boat.
3. The man gets out of the boat on the original side of the river.
4. The man gets back into the boat alone and crosses the river again.
5. The man and the goat are now together on the other side of the river.

Therefore, the man and the goat have successfully crossed the river using the boat, without leaving the goat unattended on either side of the river.

I have the same setup - Fedora daily driver and Windows 11 Pro. I recently switched from Windows daily driver and it’s crazy how much better my laptop runs with Fedora. Processor temp and RAM usage are both less than half of what they were on Windows.

I needed to use multiple messaging apps for different people

Beeper is a lifesaver: https://www.beeper.com/

You can self-host if you prefer: https://github.com/beeper/self-host

Here you go:

Because it’s closed source, there’s a higher likelihood that there is an undiscovered vulnerability in 1Password. Even though it is audited, a vulnerability could be introduced after the most recent audit and you would never know.

For something as mission-critical as a password manager, going with an open source solution gives just that much more confidence that your data is safe. To me it’s simply not worth the risk to blindly trust a company with my login data, when I could trust a company that displays their entire solution in the open.

Fair enough. I actually switched from Readwise to Omnivore, as I found the Readwise workflow to be quite painful. I use it for getting things into Obsidian, so I don’t use the re-surfacing features etc.

No idea sorry, I don’t self-host, I just knew that it had the option.

How about Omnivore?

If it helps, I’ve been using Bitwarden since 2019 and never installed the desktop app. Can’t imagine what you’d need it for.

That’s very interesting. I have been contemplating switching to Mac recently, and it’s a bit surprising to hear something that Windows can apparently do better. Thanks for the info.

Really? With Firefox in a Private browsing window - are you certain?

Here’s mine, with the vault currently locked, but not showing any locked state (point 3):

And for point 1, just unlock the dropdown extension, exit the extension window, then click on the icon again. It will be re-locked when it shouldn’t.

If you’re really not seeing this, would you mind telling me how you fixed it?

I posted the links for someone else, but looks like Tobenone have some docks specifically for M1/M2 Macs to allow dual displays:

• https://tobenone.com/products/tobenone-usb-3-0-or-usb-c-dual-monitor-docking-station-with-2-hdmi-2-displayport
• https://tobenone.com/products/uds016d-docking-station-dual-monitor-for-m1-macbook-pro-air-windows

Note: no idea if this works or not. I suggest looking for reviews

That’s a Windows dock - you’ll want to look at their Mac series for the Mac/Thunderbolt ones:

The reviews on Amazon seem to indicate that Mac people are running 2 displays without issues from these docks. I can see that there are 2x DisplayPort options on their site.

I’m running dual 4K monitors from mine. Not using ethernet so can’t comment on that. I have no issues with the audio jack output, works perfectly and very low latency with Asio4All. It’s really neat to set my laptop down and plug in a single cable to both charge the laptop and output all the ports.

There are issues with Firefox private browsing windows that don’t happen in Chrome. Quoting their help article:

• Your vault will lock every time the browser extension closes, unless you set vault timeout to Never.
• Unlock with PIN will work only if the Lock with master password on browser restart option is not selected.
• The badge icon will not update to show vault state (locked or unlocked).

Not huge issues, but definitely annoying on a daily basis.

I have one of these and it is amazing:

https://tobenone.com/products/15-in-1-tobenone-usb-c-docking-station-dual-monitor-dock-with-150w-power-adapter-uds032

Highly recommend for a fixed workstation docking station. They have both Thunderbolt and USB-C options.
