By default it runs in docker, and also includes an extra sophisticated macOS-native --darwin mode which goes beyond the capabilities and guarantees of the likes of sandbox-exe, bubblewrap, and in some ways docker. Leash provides visibility into and control over every command and network request attempted by the coder agent. Would appreciate any feedback, and will try to get in touch with the author (Gordon).
Now I'll definitely look into automatically supporting pass-through auth for at least gh cli in Leash - always looking for what folks will find useful.
X-Mouse Button Control (XMBC for short) is a handy Windows app to override mouse buttons to do arbitrary other actions on a program/App -specific basis.
However the docs (which are excellent!) were published by the developer as PDF-only, so I did a nice transform to HTML and posted it on my personal website. I will do my best to host it until I'm dead, and also submitted it to TIA:
It takes HTML as input and generates markdown-esque plaintext, with the main focus being to make the plaintext version easy and pleasant to read for human beings. Then using MIME types*, you transmit both the rich html version alongside the generated text/plain version.
This is cool because it makes it easy to respect both rich clients (like Gmail et. al.) as well as command-line or other clients which work better with simple text.
Hope this helps folks have the best of both worlds! :) cheers
* n.b. To ensure this works properly, be sure to use the right MIME headers:
I find myself googling "etymology {word}" a lot recently; here inter is between like in intercontinental, and necine is death like in necrosis.
And inter is apparently the origin of intel, which is topical, and suggests Intelnecine, adj: destructive to all factions within Intel, or any company with a destructive amount of in-fighting.
> I’ve often thought about getting together with some friends to pay into a fund to house our websites after we die. I don’t think setting that up would be too hard — the math around insurance policies of this sort is quite simple — I mostly haven’t tried to set something like this up just since it’s a pretty morbid ask. But, if you’d be interested, maybe reach out to me?

I love this idea and would gladly assist in the effort, let's set it up :)
the year is 2122 and all the "good" (short, memorable) DNS names are owned by ghosts. in the grim dark future, there is only joe_smith_from_minneapolis_born_2055.com

NFSNet also has an interesting part in their FAQ in response to the question If I think services you host are currently unavailable due to lack of funds; is there anything I can do?, they outline a process whereby third-parties can fund a hosted service by creating an account themselves, depositing funds into their own account (NFSNet services are prepaid instead of billed after the fact), and then submitting a manual (but free) request to transfer those funds to the original accountholder based on the service's domain name. I've always thought this was interesting because in theory someone could set up a community, disappear, and then the community could step up to keep it funded long enough for the person to get out of the hospital/be rescued at sea/etc, so long as the infrastructure is solid enough to remain operational without being attended to (not vulnerable to exploits, etc.)
They've also got a policy where if the member who operates the service is a willing participant, they can publish their NearlyFreeSpeech.Net account ID and have donors add funds to cover 100% of service costs via automated transfers. <https://www.nearlyfreespeech.net/about/faq#Lifeboat>
The Klingons were hella cool! Wish I could have appreciated it more as a kid, but at the time (early 90s) I didn't even know what I was looking at or how special it was :D
