Sounds to me like lawyers got wind of it and were worried that NVIDIA might sue them because they paid to have it made. They would likely be concerned about this whether or not NVIDIA had a case.
I'm already on an independent git forge, so I have that covered.
I only read the protocol document and skimmed the guide, so I didn't see the cryptocurrency angle of the funding company. Yeah, that's a bit of a warning sign.
Um... It's literally hosting itself, complete with issues and PRs (which they call patches). So to me it seems to replace a forge.
For private repos, it could be quite a good fit. No need for other contributors/users.
This is interesting because I've been thinking about switching from Debian to Arch. I'm already running Nix inside of my Debian installation to get more recent apps (I don't like how snap interacts with the rest of the system, so I avoid it if I can).
Is there anything else on a more base OS level (like apt v pacman) that you've noticed is different, if you're willing to share?
TIL about Rainmeter. This thread has done some good, beyond the obvious good of mocking Dev Home.
IMO since the app is Louis' project that is primarily being financed by donating his personal money to FUTO (AFAICT)
For clarity, FUTO is privately funded by an independently wealthy person, not Louis. Louis is an employee who believes in the mission.
I don't fully agree with these, but these are the cases I've heard of:
- Deeper integration with webcams
- USB authentication devices like Yubikeys
I think these are better served with extensions or specific browser protocols that communicate with native apps in order to keep the crazy web world more isolated from the high-value computer world, but what do I know? My guess is that someone at Google went "You know, we're creating a lot of these specific protocols to communicate with webcams, printers, and now we want to do authentication dongles. You know what? They all use USB? Why don't we just create a general way to access USB?"

First, you're stronger than i. Congrats on the life shift.
Second, "not having constant input" can be viewed as a skill. Meditation is a way that I have practiced that skill (I'm quite out of practice these days).
I recommend doing guided meditation. It's not the thing for everyone, but it helps some.
