It should. They cut off access to my account without warning, because they say GOS doesn't meet their security requirements. Read all the GPlay reviews from people on GOS who were cut off without notice.

If it works, it's by happenstance not officially. According to the link above (official FAQ):

> If the operating system is an Android variant (also called a 'custom ROM'), such as LineageOS or Pixel Experience, then the wero app can’t be installed for security reasons.

Your link is broken for me.

From https://support.wero-wallet.eu/hc/en-us/articles/25599098295... it seems they don't even support phones with developer settings turned on, much less custom ROMs, rooted or jaibroken phones.

Sounds like the microwave can't deliver enough power. Here's Lan Lam frying capers and shallots in the microwave: https://youtu.be/dJrdXRZ3PUE?t=527.

> Also it heats food inside out equally as compared to stove which transmit heat from the out layer to inside

This is also false, photons don't teleport themselves to the inside of food.

It's not an issue for me, I have enough coding assistants. It's a issue for them, since they are restricting their audience artificially, since it requires minimal effort to publish on OpenVSX.

It certainly makes them idiots, from the perspective of artificially restricting their audience; AFAIK it's very simple to publish on OpenVSX, there are no extension changes needed. Most devs I know use VSCodium, not VSCode.

If I were their investor I would not be happy.

They're such idiots, they haven't published Mistral Code on OpenVSX. LMAO. I wanted to recommend to a group of friends to try it, but I can't because they use VSCodium.

Yes. I would still prefer the old email/pass though, so I don't depend on a 3rd party being online, etc.

Can I create an account with email on Kilo Code or only "Sign in with Google"? I couldn't see such an option.

Right-click on the panel, choose "Configure panel", in the resulting overlay there's a "Move tabs to this panel", click "Manage rules".

Look into the Panels feature, it has auto-move by URL regex.
