Feel free to reach out, I will be happy to try help with these issues :)

This is why "side loading" needs to be normalised as a completely regular form of app installation. Far more resistant to censorship than relying on profit driven corporations "fighting" on our behalf when it suits them.

Except they do. One just has to look at the inability to keep JPEG-XL mainlined in Chromium. Sure, some forks still have JPEG-XL, but it's effectively gone at this point.

The Haast Eagle would be another interesting de-extinction... and preyed on Moa :)

It's kind of ridiculous that the US has held onto pennies for this long. New Zealand phased out our 5 cent coins back in 2006, approximately 3 US pennies worth at present.

I'm gutted; I absolutely love the Sculpt Ergonomic keyboard, especially with the optional slightly inverted slope, it's even more comfortable than previous ergonomic keyboard models. And I've been exclusively using Microsoft ergonomic keyboards for over 20 years, started in my late teens. Tempted to buy a second Sculpt Ergonomic keyboard as a backup for when this keyboard eventually dies, hopefully not for a long, long time!

I'm kind of surprised that New Zealand isn't available when Australia is. We tend to share a lot of regulatory standards and such.

I've also heard of a trick of integrating WoL with DNS, where if the server requests a lookup for a local IP, it'd send WoL packets to the destination. You'd probably just need to set the TTL for the server's IP very low so that it doesn't get cached.

If the vscode extension did it all locally, I'd 100% install in an instant!

I've had zero issues deploying .Net on Linux, whilst developing in Windows. The docker support is really good, if you want to go that way too, and didn't need any platform-specific shenanigans to get working.

JSON really is a terrible serialization format. Even JavaScript can't safely deserialize JSON without silent data corruption. I've had to stringify numbers because of JavaScript, and there were no errors. Perhaps that's the fault of JavaScript, but I find the lack of encoding the numerical storage type to be a bug rather than a feature.

I use winfsp/sshfs-win to remotely access my Haiku system, which works extremely well.

I use branches gratuitously, and push to my forks regularly as you do, but I also do interactive rebases and edits when preparing to push to upstream to clean up my mess.

Ah yeah, I got bit by that too! Haha

I think it's neat, and uh... what, type it in? Hahaha, sorry :p
