@MasterBlaster If the company is in the EU, and they use AI to do facial recignition, that is actually illegal! See https://natlawreview.com/article/use-ai-recruitment-and-hiring-considerations-eu-and-us-companies

@33550336 Thanks! I’m still figuring some things out as I go but it’s just some habits I don’t have!

@FreddiesLantern Aside from the hiccups I mentionned, it works great! I was surprised my backlit keyboard even works, but I think that’s managed by my bios.

I’ll keep on using it, but I’m trying to document my struggles because if Linux is aiming to be a good alternative to Windows computers getting to end of life, then some set up wouldn’t be done by most people and just assume it’s broken and maybe switch back to Windows where it “Just works”.

Maybe this can help with the onboarding experience!

@EtnaAtsume Mint install or not, you should regularly back up your data in an external drive!

Yes, installing mint on the Windows partition deletes Windows and all your files so make a backup or put them on another partition!

But without deleting your data, you can always boot from an USB stick and try thingd around in this environnement!

@cupcakezealot It’s
neofetch

Try it! :blobcathug:

@Nyadia Figured it out and it worked! Strange that this isn’t the default.

@scott It’s a mastodon post, lemmy federates it and takes the start of the post as a title. Can’t do much about that :blobcatcoffee:

@eatCasserole I have found a software called Diodon, and seems to work fine!
You need to set a custom shortcut in your settings but besides that it does the job

@hard_zero1 Thanks so much! It worked! :blobcatheart:

@First_Thunder Is there any way to disable that?

@MonkderVierte The thing is, since the code is running inside a browser extension there’s no way to interact with third party tools that aren’t part of the standard JavaScript api.

Well, I mean there’s Native Messaging https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/Native/_messaging but it only works for PC (Bye bye to ~70% of Android users) and I’d have to use a forked version to be able to handle messages from the browser extension, so I think that’s not the best solution for me

@MonkderVierte I’m afraid I can’t handle that from a browser extension, but good to know!

@geneva_convenience Elaborate?

@ShellMonkey Be careful, obfuscation isn’t encryption!
And no, there doesn’t need to be a publicly shared token! Take a look at how simplexchat does it!

@ShellMonkey That’s true, but these should also be encrypted, don’t you think?
Sure the messages could still be encrypted but from the metadata you can most of the time infer the content.

It’s a bit long, but you can read this if you’re interested
