Oh, oh dear. Um, that was sarcasm. I clearly don't think people should be looking for get rich schemes, on yt or otherwise. It was aimed at the people that think day trading, lottery tickets, or otherwise longshots are a logical response to a hostile market.

Its hard to think of any scam that isn't portrayed as "working out (for the (would be) rich)". Again, a good reason to be wary of such things.

I'm totally in favor of helping struggling folks, taking care of basic needs, etc (though I'm not sure laundered money is the culprit I'd offer). But lord maybe some reasoning skills would also do some wonders. Also, Christ, it pains me how often I think "if only I could sleep with myself stealing money from fools". Because I do know you're right, that's the psychology of why get rich schemes work...

Uhm, yeah, people made the wrong bet because they fell for another hyped up tech company.

But let's put a fine point on it -- that specifically fell in with a rent-seeking company capitalizing on a decentralizaed space with a centralized platform and then surprise-pikachu'd when they did the same thing as every one before them.

> because when it's not on an exchange you can't convert it back into USD when significant market moving events take place.

Weew, well, idk, if y'all know this, and I'll take the karma hit, but the rest of us that know better than to day trade mostly roll their eyes at this ... crap. And if you WERE "day trading" and didn't manage to pull out, well, maybe day trading isn't in your cards. Go watch YT for a few hours and I'm sure youll be on to your next get rich scheme.

I don't get it, other than the Apple-y-ness of it all? Maybe that's not important but ... ?

Every single thing I own and need to function on a daily basis (other than my immersion water boiler for otg-espresso) operates on USB. Preferably type-c, but plenty of things still need a USB-A-to-C in the mix because resistors are hard, I guess.

Also, open hardware hackers,, my trimmer and touthbrush are basically internally identical. An we please make these inter hangeable?

Using a "thin-client" laptop with cheap default -cafe alliances d chesap ones means I can live out of a bag, using redundant chargers - either a tiny 45w charger that literally fits in my bu^H^H pocket, or charge my laptop, phone and Ledger using a 100W charger that is barely more than double the physical-size of the smaller charger.

Well, no, you don't chain-load Windows from grub either because then PCR are wrong and Bit Locker rightly complains.

Which is why you... Just use the system boot manager to pick which loader to load. Easy, problem solved.

And you can edit the system boot manager entries from Linux and Windows, set bootnext from either one. It's really strictly superior to what you're describing.

Yeah I don't get how Linux is running on the Thinkpad and openbsd was able to boot but a device trees is the blocker for Linux? Are they just on some distro that doesn't have the new kernel packaged?

Oh, it's because of "APCI" mode working with openbsd apparently...

"Password Store" ('pass' compatible) for Android also supports TOTP to tokens and Gpg encryption.

With Syncthing, 'gopass' and 'Android Password Store', I have a fully open source, very easy to reason about fully in my control, password and totp storage, accessible on all my devices. All of which can only be accessed with my Yubikey that I keep in my pocket and my GPG PIN.

I love that the CSS is basically identical. I'm very curious to see if this takes off. It feels like this has been missing for a while.

I really wanted to see something like this for Matrix but despite seeing some functional prototypes, it doesn't seem like anyone stuck with it...

I think you'd be shocked how much of my NixOS system not only natively compiles for my Vision Five but also cross compiles to it... (and Nixpkgs cross compiling support has room to improve, so..)

Obviously a monorepo of largely FOSS is easier to deal with than random Android apps but I don't think it's that dire or insurmountable.

Signs so far point to a big fat no (as someone running a custom uboot build on visionfive that works better than the bsp from manufacturer). Plenty of blobs, still device trees, etc.

Some humans, maybe.

Lol so what happens if I run 'curl' in my PS6 script? Asking for a friend with PTSD.

I just ported a bunch of scripts to nushell.

I hit some bugs, a couple of which are a bit sharp, but wow, the list of quirks I have to remember for nutshell are so much fewer than for bash.

Constantly impressed at the errors it catches at parse time, kinda crazy sometimes.

Oh my god I could cry, strings are sane to work with. I may never write a bash script again (it's okay, I use Nix so I get nushell everywhere I'm might need it, for free)

Everyone is asking about PowerShell. I never hated it, but lord it makes some awful, stupid infuriating decisions. I've lost hair and sanity to some stupid list/single-item-list beahvior. Numerous operators and bits of syntax are just different. Everything about the script syntax is just slight odd and confusing. There's basically none of this with nushell. Jonathan Turner is a gifted person with an eye for language design and it really shows.

Edit: I do think it's missing some important output redirection functionality. You can workaround by using "complete" but that feels non-ideal.

(doesn't list or use the package manager most likely to already be reproducibile)
