It does not, and Google does not yet even attempt to use WebAuthn. They're still using the (now legacy) U2F authentication mechanism, which firefox does not fully support. It works in some sites if you enable it in about:config, but not all. Like google.com.
Running it locally is fine, but a hassle if I need to access my mail on someone else's hardware (or my phone). I think this is one of the main reasons Gmail is so popular.
Daemon by Daniel Suarez is kind of like that, except it turns out the AI is arguably good and not exactly an AI. It's an excellent book, with an excellent sequel.
Yes please! It's one thing to know what you should do because you've been told to do so, but quite another to fully understand why you're doing something.
Well, I'm not really sure what to say other than that I don't have any of those issues. Sitting here right now with my HiDPI XPS13 screen and a regular HDMI monitor. Things look good and I have no scaling issues. Haven't messed with any of the settings, it's just an Ubuntu install with i3.
I don't know any specific macbook models as I'm not an apple user and there is like no visual distinction between them. All I know is that I have two coworkers who use macbooks, and theirs are incredibly loud & warm.

Honestly haven't noticed a single thing.

None of that.

What's shitty? It lasts 5 hours of me working with VMs. I don't think expecting more is reasonable. It's much less laggy than my collegue's MBP, which leads me to assume that Mac just throttles the CPU down to achieve longer battery life? I don't want that.
> - Shitty touchpad
Not at all. It works nicely. Much better than most touchpads I've used.
And as an added bonus, it doesn't get burning hot to the touch when doing actual work on it. Nor does it sound like it's about to take off. And it was like 1.5K EUR vs 3K EUR for a macbook pro.
There are plenty of other hardware manufacturers out there. One of the practices you might not wish to support is an OS being tied to a specific hardware vendor.
If you don't like the hardware you shouldn't be buying it.
Also, the font color on this blog is absolutely horrible.
