WaveTerminal which I use on and off is sort of a graphical terminal like that. Has gui widgets that tile inside the terminal doing alot of the things you might open another pane for IE:file manager resources etc. Probably not as extensive as you mean but its sort of a stepping stone.

I actually just finally got around to trying fish last month. Wasn't aware they were going through a big re write, I had just seen people talk about it so much decided to try.

It's crazy I have no issue playing games on my linux laptop now (sans anticheat).

I used to be a big windows fan but now I can barely even use my pc half the time SYSTEM is just churning disk reads/writes making everything slow or edge is secretly running in the background even though Ive closed it five times. The few games with anti-cheat are killing me right now as I'm fully linux on laptop/servers

Alot of free services are having to do that now to avoid bots and abuse, unfortunately.

According to my last job interview, linux servers are only for websites and worthless otherwise.

That's a good point. I think most people go into Costco to get the gold though. I'd need some good shipping insurance on a $3000+ purchase

Really interesting writeup. Might be fun to try something similar with some old devices I have.

I was able to get a free x86 box but it's been impossible for me to get an arm instance on the west coast always out of space. Otherwise oracle free tier is pretty ncie

I bought the rust book because it looked nice. But it's annoying lugging around a huge book when trying to squeeze it in during work.

I dont think someone complaining about an algorithm influencing their news is going to want to use FB. Although i dont use FB anymore so maybe their news is great.

Ya its a bit pricey but really good execution. If there was an open source version of this where you could use ur own files but this was the player or something would be dope. Cant fault someone for trying to make some money though.

I know that the instruments they have are pretty good, but I feel like I'd prefer my plane not try and land without seeing the runway anyway.
