i keep instinctively bringing my finger to the top right of my desktop keyboard trying to authenticate stuff that wouldn't even use TouchID on my mac.

tell me why, on my Linux Desktop, on my Desktop Keyboard. I'm trying to use the fingerprint to unlock Bitwarden.

Bitwarden doesn't even unlock with a fingerprint on MacOS.

that being said it would be so sick to have a key on the keyboard that could be a fingerprint sensor. there would be absolutely no way to implement that in QMK.

@coolbean you can get usb fingerprint sensors too, i actually saw one that supported FIDO as well and probably only unlocks on a successful fingerprint login, which is kinda cool

@autumn realistically you could combine both since passkeys can also require confirmation via pin or in this case: fingerprint

id prefer the pin though so i
can let someone use my computer without coming over and personally authorising

also i just do not believe in biometrics. those cases of cops unlocking an incapacitated or cuffed person's phone made me very untrusting of their actual security

@coolbean

@autumn yeah in the US entering a pattern pin or password can't be forced because it's considered compelled testimony so I never use biometrics, and any passkey I do use is only part of a password as opposed to the password in and of itself, so that at least if they get the key they can't compel me to offer up the other part
