As to why thisisawayoflife recommends these products (over OP's consideration of Yubico), probably because Solo and Nitro keys are open source hardware and firmware.
Nitro is a German company. Yubico is a Swedish company. I can't find where SoloKeys is located. However, the OS nature of Solo and Nitro should make that a little less important.
I mean, I would use fzf if I were already in a terminal, but if I wanted a pop-up window, rofi is the right tool. Forking a terminal to run fzf seems a round-about way to solve this.
I don't know what you're asking, though. It sounds as if it does what you want, even if it isn't the way I'd do it... are you asking because you want to make it easier for other people to use?
Nearly every day. There was a time when I'd reach for Ruby, but in the end, the stability, ubiquity, and portability of the traditional Unix tools - among whom awk is counted - turned out to be more useful. I mainly underuse its power, though; it serves as a column aggregator or re-arranger, for the most part.
"Cheap" being relative, I think GL.iNet products are reasonably priced, and their software is OpenWRT with a customized web interface. $40 for their small, portable WiFi 5 Opal; $95 for their WiFi 6 "home" router; $130 for the WiFi 6 Opal. The Opals work fine for covering a 1br apartment, but have 2 eth ports. The bigger one (Flint?) has 4.
Scriptability.
It used to be, I'd start at DDG andwhen I didn't find my results, I'd switch to Goog. Now I do this, but when I find even worse results on Google, I switch back to DuckDuck because query wrangling on DDG is more worthwhile. The starting results may not always be good on DDG, but they're often better than Google.
However, very recently I've been starting on Searx on doing follow-up checks on Bing, and this has been working pretty well. I know DDG has to show ads, but lately they seem to take up the better part of the first page and aren't helpful.
Google is completely out of the picture. Their results are just bad.
I agree with the Kobo recommendation. They're great devices. However, OP specifically mentioned azw3, which is Amazon's format, right? You're not going to be reading eBooks from Amazon on a Kobo. Your choices are DRM-free ebooks, or books from Kobo's serviceable, but kind of crappy, store. Also, in most cases, pdfs are going to be practically unreadable on any Kobo; you need something more in the format of a reMarkable to get usable pdf on an e-ink device. PDF was another requirement.
I'm surprised no one has yet mentioned that it's because he's the polar opposite of Ozymandias, and Ozy was the villian(?).
Ozy is the epitome of "the ends justify the means." He's logical, calculating, and willing to murder countless innocents if it means bringing about a better world.
Rorschach is a moral absolutist. No end ever justifies evil actions; he does have a harsh sense of justice - there's no "reforming" in his playbook. If you've sinned, you get punished, and for him they're biblically just punishments. Sinners get fire, brimstone, pain, and hell.
Ozy could be reasoned with, if anyone had been as smart and capable; Rorschach could not. These two characters were the bookends of the morality scale in the comics.
I think Rorschach is the most relateable character, at least for men. He represents our inner edgelord. He's the only Everyman character: like us, he has no abilities, training, or gadgets. He's unwaveringly convinced of his rightness; his conviction is his only superpower. He's a little like Orson Scott Card's Ender: when he acts, it's with complete commitment to the destruction of his opponent; he doesn't hold back, and that lets him win (most of the time).
I wonder how populer Rorschach is with women readers; I suspect his fanbase consists mostly of men, because Rorschach is testosterone: rage, violence, righteous anger. There's no negotiation, no rational debate, no weighing costs... just action and reponses to the immediate.
bcachefs in mainline. It's going to be fun.
XPS make great Linux machines, but I find their batteries have a noticable drop after a year or so.
My next machine is going to be a FrameWork, so that I can easily replace the battery.
A decade ago (almost!) I had one of those HP swivel-screen jobs - a Compaq TC4200. Replaceable battery, dock, external attachable battery, resistive touch screen, fully user-serviceable... it was the best laptop I've ever had, in terms of feature set.
People often claim they don't make 'em like they used to, but it's true. Framework is a step in the right direction with servicability, but they still have a way to go to get to everything laptops of a decade ago.
