auditor_3d··on Okay, I Like WezTerm
I have tried so many I can't count. I have settled on one that seems to be not as well known but should be. Black Box Terminal. It checks all kinds of great boxes for me, I love it.

auditor_3d··on How to copy a file between devices? (2022)
I typically just run a

python3 -m http.server

command from a command line on whatever device I need to send from and then hit it on a webpage. You can run that on an iOS device even with something like Libterm

auditor_3d··on The internet used to be fun
The internet is being ruined in the same way most Art Deco, and Arts and Crafts architecture is being ruined in the US. Turned into cookie cutter, boxes with windows with absolutely no personality at all.

Take a look at any shopping mall still alive today, and find pictures of it when it was first opened for example.

From beautiful waterfalls and fountains with foliage, to dime store prints and pastel color patterns. The internet is the same now.

auditor_3d··on 60% of people would run over a homeless guy instead of a pair of animals
whether anyone likes it or not, I would bet the reasoning they would choose the person, is that the homeless guy has the ability to understand that he shouldn't be on a railroad track in the first place, where the animals don't understand the mistake being made. The homeless guy should "know better"
auditor_3d··on What's the most reliable news source in your country?
Your going to have hard time getting an answer to this due to bias and opinion.

However check out allsides.com it doesn't try to be the news source itself but it does let you know which direction the source leans and lets you compare two articles of the same subject on both sides.

auditor_3d··on Bottles – Easily run Windows software on Linux
I can't find anything that does. It's like they intentionally wrote their software so that it can't work with anything. I wish they would just give us a proper linux release. makes me sad.

Lutris tries but it still can't handle it.

auditor_3d··on P1030680: Unbroken Enigma message (U534, 01 May 1945)

auditor_3d··on Netflix says it 'updated' new password sharing policies
I suspect that if Netflix had truely comptetive content they “might” get away with that plan. But for me at least they are teetering on the edge of “meh” and I could probably do away with them without much thought. I’ve been a customer since the early days of mail in dvds.

But they have lost a lot of their edge due to the companies that make the shows and movies starting their own streaming services and keeping titles to themselves.

I think Netflix thinks they are more indisposable than they really are here.

auditor_3d··on Install Docker in WSL 2 Without Docker Desktop
Where I really need docker, I also need VMware workstation more. It’s been a limiting factor for me. Was asking to ensure this wasn’t some trickery but sounds promising. I already have WSL working just didn’t think to try docker in that layer!

auditor_3d··on WinPopup (2001)
I learned this tool the hard way as a freshman in high school. Thought both people had to have the app open to get the messages until the front desk lady thought someone was hacking her computer with vulgar messages. Lol
