While the original announcement just said ipx8, the chart at https://repebble.com/watch says the target for both watches will be 30 meters (search for "30m"). (note: even though the duo is rated for 20m, they've said specifically not to dive with them: https://ericmigi.com/blog/pebble-2-duo-is-in-mass-production)
Like a wii-mote kind of thing? Is there anything out that's good enough for general desktop usage? I'd be really interested if it's actually at a usable state.

Especially with some of the more generic skills like https://github.com/obra/superpowers-skills/blob/main/skills/... and https://github.com/obra/superpowers-skills/blob/main/skills/...: it seems like they're general enough that they'd be better off in the main prompt.

Yeah, that surprised me too, given that https://github.com/magefree/mage is open source and pretty actively developed. But watching the rest of the video it looks like his implementation only needed to support <20 different cards that he picked, so the limited rule set he needed might have been easy enough to write.

Well, for winged egg specifically, sprite dragon is a better card that already exists for a similar mana cost, so it's not too far out. But yeah, those other cards would never be printed.
I haven't laughed this much in a long time. Thank you!

Looks like there are two pictures. One has the unaligned text and the other doesn't.

I'm not affiliated at all with simula, but I personally haven't had issues with steam on nixos.

Apparently Windows 10 started to store the source url of a downloaded file, at least for any MoTW compliant web client (chrome, firefox).

As a side note, thank you for posting this. I've been trying to get flakes set up on my system and this is more readable than the other dotfiles I've looked through.
