Re:Kitty – GPU based terminal emulator on Wednesday September 24, 2025 @12:51AM (#45356427)
I've been using alacritty [0] for a while now. Really happy with it. I prefer it over the Windows Terminal, as it feels faster for me. I run a single instance with WSL on the desktop and use tmux for multiplexing. Executing powershell inside tmux isn't an issue. If I need an elevated shell, I use gsudo [1].

I am currently trying to find their Common Criteria certificate for that product, but it seems like there is none for the LPC55S69 according to their forums [1].

Could anyone explain to me why the jsp shell is running as system user? Shouldn't it be the user of the webserver? (something like vsphere-ui?

extended the games a lot and even ported them later on to other languages.

thanks a lot :)

Re:Ask HN: What makes you happy? on Monday December 05, 2016 @02:45AM (#13103975)
Achieving something, like when I feel I've finally understood some topic, solved a problem, finished a project. On the other hand meeting with friends, meeting new people, having discussions. Also when I try to explain something and recognize the other person gets what I've said.

But in general life makes me pretty happy.
