Tech Tips Tuesday 37 – COSMIC News, GIMP for Apple Silicon, and Bitwarden Password Manager News.
TTT 37.1 – COSMIC News
What’s COSMIC? COSMIC is the House-built set of extensions for GNOME that System76 used for POP!OS, however, System76 is creating their own desktop environment, written in the Rust programming language, and based around another FOSS tool called Iced. Why are they going to all this trouble? Well, because the GNOME team refused to work with them about the extensions that they kill every time a new version of GNOME gets released, so the POP!OS team decided that it was time to go their own way.
What is the big deal? Why, other than a difference of opinion between developers, did the team undertake this effort?
Rust allows the new DE to be more responsive and configurable, as it is lighter, due to the nature of rust as a language. It will have its own wayland compositor with HiDPI, Fractional Scaling, HDR, and NVidia support out of the box.
They are also trying to make sure that it is almost futureproof (right... What’s that really mean?) This may encourage me to look at it again, when it is ready (whenever that is).

What did Jesus have to give us? Divinity, union with God, righteousness, love, wisdom, and so much more.
What did we have that he took from us? Well, our pride, our brokenness, our sin, our wounds.
Does this sound like a fair trade to you? It sure doesn’t to me. I don’t know about you, but my stuff feels pretty heavy, yet He took it and gave me an infinitely better deal, and did the same for all who would come unto Him. Have you let your stuff go and received wholeness, a pathway to union with God, love, righteousness, and al the rest that I didn’t mention this morning?

TTT 37.2 – GIMP Now Stable on Apple Silicon
Great news for users of M1 & M2 Mac machines, GIMP is now stable for you guys, for MacOS. It has worked for some time, but has not been considered stable. It is now. You have another solid option to work with instead of PS. Different workflow, sure, but I think you can get it done, and once you do, that is one less SAAS subscription you’ll have to pay for.

TTT 37.3 – Bitwarden News
Along with other passwordless options to get into bitwarded-protected devices (various biometric (which we should not use, allegedly, as the Feds can finesse their way into making us sign in for them, where with a pin or a password/code, they need an actual warrant) and pin), they have added a limited 2FA option, where it will ping another of your signed-in devices (phone, different computer, etc) so that you can confirm that it is you trying to sign into your computer or phone. If you are using bitwarden and self-hosting, then for now, this is not available to you, however, if you are using their cloud solution, it is there for you to use.
If you are using a password manager, then you are likely very security-focused, and are probably wondering whether this option is actually safe. Bitwarden claims that the request and response are both encrypted between devices and their cloud, so it looks safe enough to the moment at least.
