How to make sure an Xbox disc is 100% readable ?
As an example, one of the main tools for dumping that you will find on their guide (MPF) even has an option to dump the disc twice and compare the hashes because sometimes due to a variety of reasons, like scratches, aged laser diode, copy protection shenanigans, etc. the disc won't be read correctly so the hashes won't match.

How do I rip bluray/dvd’s/ps2 games? And what is the recommended storage product and size to use?
I can recommend https://github.com/saramibreak/DiscImageCreator . It handles all kinds of weird formats and copy protections, and it's open source! You can use https://github.com/SabreTools/MPF as the frontend if you like.

Where to find latest addition in a romset
Be aware that some games are MIA (Miss In Action), so it's kinda pointless to try to find them, except if you have an original copy of those games and you dump it yourself by using the Media Preservation Frontend tool ( https://github.com/SabreTools/MPF/releases/latest ).

Slightly off topic - Does anyone know how to make an ISO out of a RAW RIP?
There is a preservation group called redump.org that preserves all sorts of disc based content ranging from CDs, DVDs, HD-DVDs, Blu-Rays and Video Games. They use a program called MPF (Media Preservation Frontend) which can be found here..

Do you guys have any idea of how to rip PS1 game files (roms) from discs?
Best tool to dump disc based games it's the MPF, it can also be used to report the hashes to the redump database: https://github.com/SabreTools/MPF/releases/latest

ISOs are nice but sometimes you need to hoard the originals for the complete experience. (And also rip them to ISO)
How do you rip your games? Some of them come with pretty tricky copy protection. Still trying to figure out a consistent "one shot" method. Currently using a combination of MPF and Alcohol.

I have these original Xbox demo disks I'd like to preserve
Media Preservation Frontend software allows doing quality dumps and generate the log to report redump.org, you can dowload the latest version here: https://github.com/SabreTools/MPF/releases/latest

Just How Much Faster Are the Gnome 46 Terminals?
And kitty is much faster according to this: https://github.com/kovidgoyal/kitty/issues/2701#issuecomment...
Also typometer based measurements also on Linux. Shrug.

Warp, the modern terminal, is now available for Linux
A terminal with built-in telemetry and a pricing model... Just what I never wanted!
To avoid being too negative, I'll offer the option of Kitty[1]. My current favorite terminal. Supports many features.
Including my personal favorites:
* ctrl+c (as opposed to stupid things like ctrl+shift+c) to copy data only when you have content selected. Otherwise, ctrl+c sends a sigint like normal.
* font ligature support (a controversial feature)

Non-code contributions are the secret to open source success
The ncurses/xterm maintainer also had quite a lot of friction with the developer of the kitty terminal emulator.

I Just Wanted Emacs to Look Nice – Using 24-Bit Color in Terminals
IME, this is like the golden age of terminal apps in general and macOS-compatible ones in particular. There are several really good terminals for macOS:
[iTerm2 app](https://iterm2.com/)
[Kitty terminal](https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/)
[WezTerm terminal](https://wezfurlong.org/wezterm/index.html)
[Alacritty](https://github.com/alacritty/alacritty)
My daily driver is WezTerm…
- Runs on Linux, macOS, Windows 10 and FreeBSD
- [Multiplex terminal panes, tabs and windows on local and remote hosts, with native mouse and scrollback](https://wezfurlong.org/wezterm/multiplexing.html)
- [Ligatures](https://github.com/tonsky/FiraCode#fira-code-monospaced-font...), Color Emoji and font fallback, with true color and [dynamic color schemes](https://wezfurlong.org/wezterm/config/appearance.html#colors).
- [Hyperlinks](https://wezfurlong.org/wezterm/hyperlinks.html)
- [Searchable Scrollback](https://wezfurlong.org/wezterm/scrollback.html) (use mouse wheel and `Shift-PageUp` and `Shift PageDown` to navigate, Ctrl-Shift-F to activate search mode)
- xterm style selection of text with mouse; paste selection via `Shift-Insert` (bracketed paste is supported!)
- SGR style mouse reporting (works in vim and tmux)
- Render underline, double-underline, italic, bold, strikethrough (most other terminal emulators do not support as many render attributes)
- Configuration via a [configuration file](https://wezfurlong.org/wezterm/config/files.html) with hot reloading
- Multiple Windows (Hotkey: `Super-N`)
- Splits/Panes (Split horizontally/vertically: `Ctrl-Shift-Alt-%` and `Ctrl-Shift-Alt-"`, move between panes: `Ctrl-Shift-ArrowKey`)
- Tabs (Hotkey: `Super-T`, next/prev: `Super-Shift-[` and `Super-Shift-]`, go-to: `Super-[1-9]`)
- [SSH client with native tabs](https://wezfurlong.org/wezterm/ssh.html)
- [Connect to serial ports for embedded/Arduino work](https://wezfurlong.org/wezterm/serial.html)
- Connect to a local multiplexer server over unix domain sockets
- Connect to a remote multiplexer using SSH or TLS over TCP/IP
- iTerm2 compatible image protocol support, and built-in [imgcat command](https://wezfurlong.org/wezterm/imgcat.html)
- Kitty graphics support
- Sixel graphics support (experimental: starting in `20200620-160318-e00b076c`)

Kitty shortcuts work only with Latin characters - How to fix?
While researching how to fix the issue I found this GitHub issue with the fun number 606 (almost 666). First, I should say, that there is no easy solution. Shortly you have to specify for each shortcut mapping alternative with your keyboard layout. That means, for example, if your keyboard has Cyrillic "м" instead of Latin "v" then for making work CMD+V you should add also into configuration an additional line with "м".

Waveterm
I haven’t tried this yet (so please take my commentary with a grain of salt), but my initial thoughts are: (1) it looks interesting, (2) it looks overwhelming (there’s a lot going on in those screenshots), and (3) it’s likely slow (I might be completely wrong).
To elaborate a bit…
1. I love good design work and well-designed (UI-wise) software, and it certainly looks like the creators of Wave Terminal have made that a priority.
2. UX-wise, there’s just too much going on. As someone who lives in my terminal (with the exception of browsing the web, I do virtually everything in my terminal), it’s the single most important piece of software on my computer and it can never get in my way. I used the same terminal for many years and only switched to kitty [0] a couple years ago after testing it for months. In all of those years, every single terminal I tested managed to get in my way. Somehow, kitty manages to be packed full of features without ever—not even once—getting in my way, being slow, or freezing up on me.
3. Generally speaking, I think building on open web standards is a great thing and a plus. Unfortunately though, even in 2023, my experience has been that it’s really hard to build performant software meant to be run on native platforms using web technologies; the few who get this right—e.g., Figma—are anomalies and they generally invest an enormous amount of time and engineering capital into squeezing out as much performance as possible. As I explained in #2, for something as critical as my terminal, not being performant is simply not an option, so as much as I love the idea of building on open web standards, it actually scares me for software like this.
That said, I’m obviously judging before trying here, so I’ll make some time to test Wave Terminal.
