Minenash··on O.mg Cable
I still use the 3.5mm headphone jack over Bluetooth, because of the price of Bluetooth headphones, and also not having to ever worry about battery life. The only downside for me is that I can't use the headphones, and charge and walk around, but that's a lot less annoying then the other things. And with Bluetooth, there tends to be brief pauses (<1sec) where I can't hear anything.

I also use my phone as my computers webcam. It's way better wired than the wifi for me (which honestly shouldn't be true, but).

I almost never use wireless charging, because it takes longer to charge, is everyday inefficient, and most people don't own wireless chargers. And even if they do, it's never in as many places as normal chargers. On an old phone, I ruined the port and had to only use wireless charging, and it was so annoying.

And app development is so much nicer when you have a USB connection. When I lost the ability to do so, coding was a good amount more work

I think the funniest part about this, is that the pico used for the cable probably can do miss hashes per second

Minenash··on MX-19.4 Now Available
It does have systemd, but it's disabled by default, and instead used sysvinit. The wiki says fire versions 14-17, but the blog post basically saying that it would stay that way for 19

Anyone know of an equivalent for linux?

I saw all the comments about how good the intro video was, and I thought "how could a 'service' intro video be that good"

Damn that was amazing though, definitely will try out.

Minenash··on Ask HN: Why Can't I Downvote Submissions?
As a relatively new person, I didn't even know anyone could downvote

Can you have different permissions from different users? If so it could be a setting to "backup to github", and then request that permission then.

Is there a place I can put suggestions/requests? Because I have some for the editor.

Since, you can sign in with GitHub, it would be cool if it could sync/backup posts to a repo. Since in the end, the posts are mostly markdown, each post could be a .md file in the repo, with the title, subtitles, img header, and tags, in either <> or a code block. Or as plain text and a horizonal divider (*).

Maybe blocks that can render LaTeX?

Two small suggestions, there's a "placeholder" text for the new post title, but not the content. You also can't hit the enter key to start writing, so at first I couldn't figure out how to write.

The other one is to make the inside is your favicon white instead of transparent. It looks good on light themes, but the A is almost invisible on my dark theme.
