I use a ps5 controller for all my gaming needs and it works great on Linux (Kubuntu/Nobara) and Steam Deck. I use hardwired when playing on my Linux desktop, but when playing on my Steam Deck it's over Bluetooth while docked. Still works perfectly fine. I even played Crosscode with my controller just fine on both systems.
I primarily use it on my desktop for FFXIV which is why I do hardwired. Bluetooth can be squirrely if the game isn't launched through Steam

This occurred overnight around 5am UTC/1am EDT. CS checks in once an hour, so some machines escaped the bad update. If your machines were totally off overnight, consider yourself lucky

Adjacently, Nobara is based on Fedora for gaming, uses KDE, and has a lot of packages pre-installed for a nicer end user experience. I used to use Kubuntu as my first foray into Linux desktop but I ran into a few issues. Nobara has been overall more stable and more reliable for my daily use.

Nobara is a very good starting point for Linux. I personally know Linux stuff from an IT perspective, but personal use/driver troubleshooting is not something I care to fiddle with regularly. I started with Kubuntu since it's familiar, but eventually swapped to Nobara when I had some issues with the few games I play.
Nobara has been seamless and easy. Having all wine and proton dependencies preinstalled is much nicer and a lot of games Just Work ™️ out of the box.

The bug, according to Kokorin, only works when sending the email to Outlook accounts.

Sounds like it's something client side or specific to Microsoft's o365/outlook.com servers. Could be the exploit bypasses header verdicts for SPF/dkim/dmarc

It says in the article that this won't apply to org member accounts yet, but I wonder how it'll work eventually. Member accounts created via account factory don't even have a password, so you have to go through email account recovery to set one and then set up MFA. If this only applies to root users with passwords, that's fine, otherwise I hope account factory will get a way to set up PW/MFA on a generated root user.

I use my deck for ffxiv a lot, so I bound dpad buttons to the back buttons. In any game, if you try to move and use something on the dpad at the same time, it's pretty rough. A claw grip is the typical way to handle this (Monster Hunter fans probably are familiar with this). This binding allows me to move and use dpad skills without hand cramping.

There's good controller support in the game itself, and the add-on ConsolePort makes it more like FFXIV (a model all controller MMOs should take after). The movement scheme being forced backpedal is less great for controller use, but that can be overcome with muscle memory.

WHAT
When did it die? That's so sad

Mine is already talking about this news in a negative light. Makes my life easier to bring in opentofu

I have to participate in the gardening now because it will be hot AF in one month. I'm mentally not ready until late April. Maybe I need to move up north so I can enjoy it more over the summer instead of hiding inside.
