'MZ' has been confirmed to be the initials of Mark Zbikowski, there's no question about it. It's not "Memory" + "Last".

There's no 0x80-0xFF in the UTF-8 encoding. Only up to 0x7F (127) it's the same.

UTF-8 is not technically a character set (because it has way more than 256 characters). Characters 32-127 in UTF8 are the same as ASCII, which is the same as the OEM/CP437 and the ANSI/ISO-8859/CP1252. The characters in CP4

ASCII 60-63 is just <=>? You probably mean 28-31 (∟↔▲▼, or ␜␝␞␟) Unless this is octal notation? But 0o60-0o63 in octal is 0123

The character "μ" itself is called μι or μυ (both pronounced "me"), and is the exact equivalent of Latin "m". For some reason, English speaking countries tend to pronounce it "mew" (they also pronounc

There's no Greek in there, so that's unfortunately another skip for me. I know most people won't care, but at least try for a WGL4 ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Glyph_List_4 ) charset! All Greek-

Could be worse, it could be syncing to Google Photos. Oh, you want to download all photos so that you can free the cloud space? Too bad, you can only download them one by one. Or use Google Takeout and leave half of them undownloaded.

I had already fixed the sources file manually, but the "any" distro should probably work as well (I put "noble" when I did the manual edit). Thanks though for the fix.

This command: lsb_release -cs Doesn't work for Linux Mint 22.2 What you want is UBUNTU_CODENAME from /etc/os-release (in the case of Linux Mint 22.2, it's "noble") EDIT: Actually, I'm not even sure

The fact that most tools have completely different ways to allow them to add certificates is the biggest pain. Git, Python and Rust also have large issues. Git doesn't default to "http.schannel". Python (or rather requests, o

In the test, Windows Terminal (weirdly written as "terminal.exe") comes up as #4 in the scoring table. As to the "love" question, I still watch this video from time to time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?

I feel that there might be a bigger difference by using Console Host vs Windows Terminal. Windows Terminal IIRC is GPU accelerated. EDIT: The screenshot sure looks like Console Host.

I reverse engineered what I could, and it's supposed to be all in row 30, column 4 to 11 (8 squares). You may add 2 more squares on the left or right side (it's just checking it's no more than 10 squares). It's the third

I set up Mattermost as a quick-and-dirty alternative, Zulip seemed a bit too hard to setup under pressure. I'm willing to give it a try again though.

I've migrated one of my projects from Slack to Mattermost (integration) in a couple of days. I have no idea about Zulip, it was harder to setup under pressure than Mattermost was.

It seems you might be too optimistic here. I doubt Trumpism will end with Trump.
