Basic-HWID-Grabber VS StreamEx

I've made a basic repository public about how to get such an HWID easily. Of course the method I've implemented into my client was slightly different from the public repository, but it's still pretty simple. This was another simple way to make sure the right person was logging to the right user and sharing accounts.

I really like StreamEx. I do not know why people do not use it often, the syntax is just wonderful.

It gets more perverse if you need to flatMap, or transmute components of map types, etc. If you want even more power, take a look at https://github.com/amaembo/streamex. This sort of container manipulation bread and butter for business processing. I use it every day, sometimes with a dozen operations. This (with liberal use of `final` values) makes for some pretty functional-looking code.

I'll grant you the Kotlin or Scala version is slightly more compact. But not fundamentally different, like the Go version.

I (and the pretty much every language designer in the post-Java era) disagree with you about checked exceptions, but that's a whole different thread...
