Very unlikely if you just hosting an onion service with legal content, where all traffic is encrypted.

Having to deal with law enforcement is unlikely even if you run a normal, encrypted, TOR relay.

Exit nodes, on the other hand, will most likely get letters or even visits by law enforcement. But those are not involved at all when just running an onion service.

Sounds preferable compared to be woken up at 5 am by your cloud providers billing alert.

You could also just not enable it. It's off by default

I think you might be mixing them up?

Opt-in means that the user needs to actively decide to use the feature, it's OFF by default. That's currently the case for atuin (happy user without sync here).

Opt-out would mean the feature would be ON by default and users would need to actively decide NOT to use it.

Had this very same payment scheme as an SRE on call in Europe almost a decade ago.

Did you try https://github.com/numtide/nix-gl-host/ to help with nix & opengl drivers on non-nixos distros?

Just a note that zoxide isn't specific to nushell in any way: I use it with great satisfaction in both zsh and bash!

> This process can take a few seconds and up to a few minutes, depending on connectivity

A pen that records everything you write and uploads it to some compute cloud sounds less interesting than the title made it sound :/

> A bigger problem is that you should never use leaded solder to repair boards that have been soldered with lead-free, which means pretty much every board out there that has been manufactured in the last 20-30 years or so.

I am unlikely to every try this, but curious: Why is that, what would happen?

But "back then", thinking about the late 90ies and early 00ths here, far less people had to use a computer at all. So in absolute numbers there are most probably still more kids with "general tech know-how" today.

I suppose it's less safe then a pool, but I don't think there's more current compared to the Danube and there are boats there as well.

You can swim there if you want! there's a picture with ppl swimming in Viennas canal (Donaukanal) on the website and there's a whole association around it which claims 300+ members: https://schwimmvereindonaukanal.org/.

That being said, Donauinsel is still quite close to the center and I personally prefer the relative quietness and greenery around there to swimming in the canal.

But this doesn't read the file char-by-char, but uses buffering to read it into a string

You could use nixos in WSL2 https://nix-community.github.io/NixOS-WSL as you are already comfortable with Nix. It's (mostly) just Linux in a VM nowadays.
