Quote 1: "We need to return to a habit of building software where our local devices do the work."

Quote 2: "I can only speak on the tooling available within the Apple ecosystem since that’s what I focused initial development efforts on."

Oh, the irony. I will use your tooling when is available on Android with F-droid, that's when, at least, be decoupled from big companies grip.

Of course the devil is in details. This entire article read like an alien visiting Earth and concluding "Humans and Dogs have 84% DNA in common, no wonder they make such a good pair."

One of the first things I do (after using O&O ShutUp10++ of course) when setting a new installation is to create "C:\Temp\" folder and go to them variables to point there. Mind you, you have global TMP and TEMP, and you have user defined (which points to \Windows\Temp instead of %LOCALAPPDATA%/Temp) ones. All 4 will point to my folder and makes my life a lot easier in the long run

Your comment is blowing something out of proportions. He prefers 25+, said so. Toxic in there means "F u", get a "F u and u'r mother" back and both persons laughs after. It's not toxic in the sense of "I will kill you and your entire family", but more like venting something in a safe space. You don't go in real life to a random stranger and say "F u", but in a lobby of a virtual game that's acceptable. And he's saying he prefer that since also going to a lobby full of 9 years old kids and saying that is way more toxic and he prefers the algorithm to actually match him with appropriate ones instead of throwing him in young lobbies and then cannot be able to speak with them. So clearly the algorithm is half baked, made communications worse and needs more tuning. Swearing is part of any culture in humanity, and there is a reason the among the first things you learn in a foreign language is swearing. Used wisely, that "toxicity" is actually a great tool to forge good relations.

"....using HTML tables as bastardized CSS"

Bro, the gazzilion DIV inside DIV spilled nonsense by all these modern frameworks is driving me crazy. TABLE as bastardized CSS is instant rendering. But hey, you're young, I get it.

And now we finally have CSS grid. Remember centering a div? Haha

Quote: "... you just import ‘pglite’ in code, and you will have a fully-fledged Postgres instance writing to a local file, rather than a separate docker container..."

Because a docker container is a magic happening in heaven instead of being just another local file, right? /s

I want the opposite. And I want to behave like a true Android. Reason: My fucking useless bank that has a banking app that only runs on non-rooted Android only (cause fuck iOS/web according to them). My attempts to run their shitty app on emulators, virtual machines and the like failed. So currently I have a dumb phone that only has their crappy app on it and that's all. On a separate Google account, because I do not dare to link my main Google account to their name.

Any advice?

WTF is wrong with just copy/paste the same big unimportant file (like a movie) until you run out of space and then just delete them all? So much unnecessary hurdle with different utilities and commands that made my head spin. What do you think those utilities do in the background anyway if not filling the free space with junk, just like what a copy/paste does?

That won't overwrite pages not allocated to a namespace (which can happen due to wear levelling/underprovisioning, or because the controller has decided to stop using that page because it's unhealthy).

Flash looks like a simple array of blocks, but under the hood there is a controller that allocates writes to different pages. You need to tell the controller to erase all pages if you want to guarantee data destruction.
