Isn't that only specified (for the same filesystem, as mentioned) for Linux? As far as I can tell the only thing POSIX specifies came from ISO C: https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions&#x2F

FWIW, if your HASS is running on a device (like a Raspberry Pi) that has Bluetooth, you might be able to get away with a custom component like https://github.com/custom-components/ble_monitor instead. Of course, if you

That makes "do not dry clean" difficult, since it'll effectively be a double negative. (I do think the circle is difficult, but that's probably because I don't typically wear clothes that one would think about dry c

It should be easier to keep comments in code multiple work on up to date, since there would be code review that lets everyone keep each other honest.

I had basically the same thought: as a user, flatpak means I'll need to install an extra daemon for something that doesn't need to run all the time, and therefore it's right out. AppImage is better in that it doesn't nee

Unfortunately that means if you need a quick refresher (say you put it down for a few months and pick it back up) you're stuck, since you'll need to replay a large chunk to get at the tutorials.

You can add to the set of refs that git pulls (via remote.origin.refs); so for me it's `git checkout pr/123/head` (or /merge) instead, without creating a local branch that you need to delete later.

That assumes they even still have it. Not sure about Nintendo in particular, but many other games of the era are known to have lost source code. Nintendo did (supposedly) use an emulator for the N64 games in Nintendo Online (for the Switch)
