While w3m can display images, it assumes running in an xterm. I don't know how xterm compatible termux is nor if w3mimg uses some tricks which are not possible on Android due to sandboxing etc. But I would be interested in the result i

I quoted only parts of the page. My point is, when being unique while being strongly protected, am I really protected?

Yes, like the app to warn me in case of a disaster which gets the location permission removed and thus cannot warn me anymore.

Correct, they are optional, not deprecated. That was sloppy on my side.

VLAs have been deprecated, alloca was never part of a C standard AFAIK. I was not suggesting that any of both is a good idea - but they are tools 'for programs where the amount of items you must store is only known at run time.'

At the time I wrote my comment here there were only one comment from Taran telling us what he gives about the topic and Daniel's reply to it. Should have made this more clear. It was to expect that comments will explode from HN visitor

Of course he will not get less email when closing the comment section. The question was if he will get more email abuse when closing the comment section.

Looking at the comment section I feel assured that comments are a thing of the past. I wonder if those people would take the hurdle to send an email instead.
