I want to be able to drag an app from one computer on to another
With waypipe we now have something that sort of works like x11 forwarding. There used to be a piece of software called x2x that would let you move your mouse off of one screen and on to another.

Fingerprint scanner on a Carbon X1 Gen 4?

New to Pop! on a Yoga 260, but having some issues
Fingerprint sensor is super finicky. I can't seem to register more than one fingerprint, and even then the validation success is super low, maybe once in 10 tries. This is the libfprint I'm using: https://github.com/3v1n0/libfprint
