You usually don't sign peace treaties with allies?

Right? So off the mark, I don't think they were near it to begin with.

It's not just ulcers, you can get serious liver damage from combining alcohol and ibuprofen:

Yes! the fact you are asking this belies your understanding of the cloud.

Second this, Samsung Galaxy Buds just work. They fit comfortably and imo look good.

I find it quiet funny there are a bunch of unix sysadmins in here talking about how PS isn't great, but admit to only touching it "sometimes" for some minor use case. Well, no shit. I now do cloud/unix/windows dev and formerly used to admin both types and use both bash and PS and have to say I like PS better, only because the community around it is less toxic and does not gatekeep. From actual REPL language POV though, PS serves its purpose quiet well and I look forward to where it takes us in the future.

If you want to run you own version of this - try this https://hub.docker.com/r/linuxserver/code-server, its very easy to configure. linuxserver has created code-server - which is vscode running in container. I have been running it in my personal network for nearly a year now. It great because it lets you code from any device. Sometimes I use this to quickly script out things on my ipad and then execute whatever script I have created using Terminus.

This is the worst attitude I have this on HN. Look out people - its the internet's gatekeeper - making sure only legitimate/fully thought out things are published to the internet. By golly, we wouldn't want to waste bits and bytes on just random things being available on the internet.

I dont think that is true. Most men look okay bald - better than the alternative in any case.
