Note the AUR package was removed because it's since been packaged in the official Arch repos.

There is a ghostty-git AUR repo for tracking the main branch: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ghostty-git

It's a macOS-only feature, for now.

Apple Terminal has a lot of problems. As others have mentioned, it lacks support for 24 bit color, enforces minimum contrast ratios without any ability to disable them (meaning you cannot set arbitrary color themes), is hopelessly bad at Unicode rendering (particularly with multi-codepoint graphemes, see [1]), and in general misbehaves in other myriad ways [2][3][4].

With both Ghostty and iTerm2 now freely available, there's really no reason to use Terminal.app.

Where do you host your fossil repos (or do you not centrally host them at all)?

I wondered this too. In my experience, "fabric" typically refers to the programmable logic region in a FPGA-based SoC (such as the Xilinx Zynq). I'm assuming the M1 does not have this, so I'm not sure what it means in this context.

> I live in Austin and sometimes I think if I really need a major procedure it would be just simpler to drive to Mexico and get it done there.

This even has a name: Medical Tourism.

Just like democracies are run by the voters?

True in principle, but rarely in practice.

> And when was the last time you needed to charge it and listen to music at the same time?

Not music, but phone calls. Working remotely means I spend a lot more time on the phone, and only recently I was frustrated by the fact that I could not charge my phone and use headphones on a call at the same time.

If you have a domain name registered, sometimes your registrar will offer built in email. For example, I have a domain registered with Gandi and they provide a free email service.
