I am now running both Touchegg and Fusuma simultaneously. Fusuma passes through all events to the underlying window, which means in a full-screen VNC/RDP session I'm not able to 4-finger-swipe my way to another desktop. Touchegg still catches that event fine, and switches desktop, but it doesn't work under Wayland. My UX is still miles better in X11. Under Wayland, I'll just have to give up using a 4-finger swipe to change desktops while in a full-screen VNC/RDP session. This is…

Bad RDP is like nasty end of life experience...

I spent Friday trying to hack into a customer box in India. They need support but have "secured" the system beyond the reach of the access mechanisms they have offered. None of the 4 different VPN’s we operate for their US operations can reach the box directly, so I must RDP into a domain controller in Mumbai, which they replaced without telling us. After finally getting to the box, none of the dozen passwords they’ve provided over the years work.
Definitely billable hours. <…
