I don't think it's a matter of "US-hate," of renewed nationalism, or of relations collapsing randomly. Let's not pretend PRISM didn't happen, that Cambridge Analytica didn't happen, or that one government didn't threaten to invade another government. All the news points to one fact: if the American government gives an order, American tech companies obey. The message is clear: being a customer of a company means being at the mercy of the government where the company is headquartered. Who would want to find themselves in the vortex when a certain government decides to devote its Two Minutes Hate to another place in the world?

I use Opus/Sol with for /brainstorming, deepseek (on Pi) for /subagent-driven-development

I love it, the docs are easily editable and when I'm ready Deepseek is faster/cheaper then everything on my coding plans.

OVH? I hate the dashboard, but the support seems fine to me.

It's because of articles like this that I can't understand those who say 'Just switch to Expo' when talking about React Native. The frontend should be a puzzle of solutions, not a monolith where a few companies sell the 'magic word' to get out of a problem.

Construct is awesome! Much of the app logic can be done simply by dragging and dropping, you can add javascript if you need advanced functionality, the editor is fast and provides that instant gratification so useful in the early stages of learning.

Disclaimer: I daily utilize a cheap Chromebook as a lightweight typewriter, and I love it.

However, it's important to note that Linux on this device is subject to certain restrictions: It operates within a containerized environment, which limits both disk space allocation and system-wide access. Accessing the terminal requires navigating through a "virtual machine", and files are shared within the /mnt/chromeos directory. Additionally, the utilization of USB devices is layered behind the primary operating system support and Linux backups are separate from the overall operating system backups.

Survivorship bias?

Chrome DevTools -> Sources -> trygalaxy.com -> _next/static -> pages -> index_... -> CTRL + F and search window.navigator.standalone -> click on the dash to the right (a blue arrow will appear) and refresh the page

The page will freeze, go to the Console, type window.navigator.standalone = true; and unfreeze the page clicking on the blue arrow.

for a similar project, I have successfully used: https://github.com/SimonMarquis/InternalAppStore

The Github page explains in detail how to set it up, and for the described use case you should stay within the Firebase free tier limit.
