What's Your Primary Operating System for Development on Your PC/Laptop?
If (like me) you're stuck on Windows, WSL2 is really awesome. It's super fast, and requires very minimal setup to get it up and running. The VS Code integration is superb. You can even connect USB devices to WSL now, which makes it very suitable for embedded. You get nearly the performance of a full OS install, unlike a typical VM. On my machine it's about 50% faster than Virtualbox.

Planespotting with Rust: using nom to parse ADS-B messages
ADS-B is a protocol used by aircrafts to broadcast their position, altitude, speed, and other information. Nowadays, the majority of aircrafts broadcast ADS-B messages constantly. Anyone with the right equipment can listen to these messages. You can buy a relatively cheap USB dongle with an antenna on Amazon and install drivers for it on Linux. In my case I used usbipd-win to mount the USB device inside Ubuntu running in WSL2. Then I installed the Linux drivers and dump1090, a program that makes use of these drivers and then outputs ADS-B messages in a format that is easy to parse. While you can use dump1090 to display a neat table full of information about aircrafts, I wanted to use its raw output capabilities to parse ADS-B messages myself. It starts a simple TCP server that outputs raw ADS-B messages wrapped in Mode-S Beast frames. I'm not sure what Beast means, but I found something that looks like its spec here.

Running Xrdp Xfce4 on top of Ubuntu/WSL2
Anyway, in the meantime you can try using usbipd-win. Start with:

Expansion Cards - Are they detected as a seperate device?
Hi, I'm using usbipd to redirect USB devices to a remote virtual machine (USB/IP) for my work and I'd like to know if the expansion cards are detected as their own devices, especially the Ethernet expansion card.

WSL2 on Zen4 Ryzen: similar performance to running bare metal Linux
What about USB devices support ?
Is there any more integrate solution than:

Formatting a micro SD card via a USB adapter with WSL2 and Windows 11
I installed usbipd as outlined here. When I run lsusb, I can see my USB drive:
-
Windows Terminal is now the default Windows 11 22H2 console
Though I see https://github.com/dorssel/usbipd-win may actually work properly as a full usb passthrough now for WSL2?

Use your Steam Deck as an expensive game controller
For server (e.g. machine that provides devices), https://github.com/dorssel/usbipd-win is a bit more mature - they grabbed the driver infrastructure from virtualbox to handle the issues with code signing.

Why doesn't my Windows 7 Virtual Machine on Hyper-V detect my iPod Touch 2nd Generation, and how do I get Hyper-V to detect it?
Check this project out. Works with WSL. Should work with Hyper-V too https://github.com/dorssel/usbipd-win

Terminal Latency
It's opinionated, which comes with upsides and downsides. I won't blame the maintainer to keep things focused, feature creep (even for worthy features) can kill a FOSS project.
Another example is sixel support, there's a fork where it all works but is not sufficiently "proven" (code quality just as well as sixel being the best fit for the problem)
https://github.com/alacritty/alacritty/pull/4763#issuecommen...
It may be annoying but I get the reasoning, and there are other terminals.

Neovide – a simple, no-nonsense, cross-platform GUI for Neovim
> Ligatures: ok, nice, possible in terms too (hopefully Alacritty one day)
I wouldn't hold my breath. Seems like its getting the iPad calculator treatment[0]. Which is to say rather than ship something working that can be improved, they're leaving a UX void.

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`)

The Linux graphics stack in a nutshell, part 2
if by 'in the terminal' you mean 'in a program emulating an ascii terminal' then no, because ascii terminals don't support anything that looks better than ascii art. they don't support sixel either. there are a variety of proposals for how to add graphics to ascii terminal emulators in a backwards-compatible way, such as mgr and notty https://github.com/alacritty/alacritty/issues/51
but the 'terminal' that a terminal emulator is emulating is a device which provides a user access to a remote computer. normally nowadays this is a laptop or cellphone. in that case, yes, you can use x-windows, xpra, vnc, or a web browser

What GPU Accelerated terminal do you recommend for Linux
