> Cash is dead in many places. Stores all around me have "cash not accepted" signs.
Side note, but here in Australia smaller stores are starting to preference cash again due to high card fees that legally cannot be (directly) passed into the customer.

> Sure, if you ignore the part where they kept bombing Gaza,
The answer is in the post you replied to.
>> Unfortunately Hamas took over Gaza shortly after and shot some 12k+ rockets into southern Israel
I respect your stance. A couple counter points from personal experience: even if I can't skip the ads, I'm not paying attention - I immediately mute/tune out. And the ads are typically so obnoxious that the reflex to ignore/avoid is only magnified. Is that so different from having a mechanism to auto skip/mute?
It's sad to think of the time and energy wasted duplicating work here rather than collaborating. As I understand it, there is no alternative as Omarchy cannot contribute to Asahi due to the Omarchy being AI driven and Asahi prohibiting AI contributions:

Swiftfin, Moonfin are two Jellyfin clients for Apple TV.
Not OP. I'm a huge fan of Asahi and use it on my M2 MBP. There are some significant downsides in particular battery life is nowhere near what you'll get from MacOS due to inability to go into low power sleep state, and buggy DP alt mode for external monitors. I hope that will change but it's not there yet.
If he's not receiving favourable treatment by X and the income he receives is properly declared to whoever needs to know, then I don't see a problem here. Whether or not what he's saying is anymore decisive than the Gov policies he speaks out against is a matter for debate. Where can we have that debate freely apart from X?
I've been using Grok daily for months, personal only, signed in - it returned zero known facts.
Afaik Tel Aviv has city wide bike share, so guessing that's what OP was using.

Typo, should be: github.com/modernc-org/sqlite
I use the (older, lower spec) TP-Link EAP225 with Openwrt and it's been great standalone. The single ethernet port is slightly annoying for a router, but PoE makes up for it.
Why is this on Hacker News?
Ever been to a social event where, by the end, everyone is yelling at each other to be heard over the noise of other people yelling at each other! I give you the Lombard effect.

The traditional way of ordering a drink at a bar requires a small degree of engagement with your fellow patrons and bar staff. In my experience people under 30 just don't want to 'engage' with strangers: make eye contact, smile, make small talk. I've noticed this in the work place with younger colleagues and with hospitality staff in general. It's not surprising they would prefer to form a queue and take their turn before hurrying back to the safety of their group of friends.

I don't want to diminish the effort put into this project, but it's a reminder to me of just how many markdown editors there are out there! And yet I'm still searching for the holy grail:
- wysiwyg editor (not live preview)
- simplicity: single binary that can be pointed at a directory of markdown files
- fast launch time, low latency UI
- cross platform
- comes with basic 'extras' like tables & code block support
I actually really like the Confluence editor experience. If I could get that in an FOSS 'offline' package, my needs would be met.
