before long we'll all have to have to run six or seven different hyper-situational vscode forks, all incompatible with different sets of extensions, having separate subscriptions t…

You also may need to run fstrim inside WSL to make all the free space actually compactible

they cannot. they do not have persistent memory.

there's literally no way to implement this on ethereum, smart contracts can't store secrets, all of their state is public.

i mean, if you're talking about how convenient is to shop there it kind of is? Doesn't matter if I'm technically close to a place if I gotta take a long detour to actually arrive.

Our system is already structured in a way to incentivize actually reinvesting and doing stuff with that money instead of adding it to one's personal hoard -- think that but enough …

sorry, I meant provisioned. As far as I know (could be wrong) it doesn't even listen to any network ports until its provisioned

You're here fighting against the _grave injustice_ that someone ... felt a little bad about an assumption they made? Having that "oh shit" moment isn't a bad thing. Realizing that …

It's snake oil -- entropy isn't "depleted" in any meaningful way; once your kernel PRNG has accumulated enough entropy that you'd be comfortable using it to generate a crypto key i…
