• Hard disk LEDs and noisy machines

  For working with remote machines that I need to ssh into I've found mobaXTerm[1] to be a very useful terminal emulator. It has an optional remote monitoring feature that shows the usual stats as a small bar under the active terminal window. It's a windows only application though.

• Day 1 - Get to know your server

  There are various SSH clients available for Windows (PuTTY, Solar-PuTTY, MobaXterm, Termius, etc) but if you use Windows versions older than 10, the installation of PuTTY is suggested. Source: 5 months ago

• What old, outdated apps you still use on Windows and find useful.

  Everything - find files by name fast (using the ntfs journal, so strange this is not in windows itself) SpaceMonger old free version - show visually what takes the most space on the HD MobaXterm not outdated - the best SSH terminal. Source: 8 months ago

• Alternative to WinSCP & Posh-SSH that isn't OSS

  I don't see anyone recommending mobaxterm. You should check it out. Https://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/. Source: 10 months ago

• Apple debuts iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus

  You can already do that with an iPad (sans fat OS). If you're using Blink Shell (https://blink.sh) the external display is independent of what's on the iPad too, which works really neatly. This is the exact setup I used as my main dev machine in a previous role. Would be very nice to see if this works on the new iPhones. A thin client with decent security in your pocket with keyboard/mouse/display at both home and... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Apple iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max

  I use blink[0] with a 40% keyboard to develop linux program on a vps. If you want to do programming without wireless interenet, another option is to connect a raspberry pi zero 2w (with usb gadget mode enabled) to the usb c port using a single usb cable. Then the rpi zero will share a ethernet network with iOS device. Then you can use blink (again) to mosh to raspberrypi.local to do the development on the pi. The... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Buying an iPad Pro for coding was a mistake

  There's also Blink [1] which includes a local shell (limited), ssh and mosh support, and comes with a local-first, but remote-dependent, vscode implementation. Works with vscode.dev, code-server (the coder.com and microsoft version), coder.com etc. Not free but a free TestFlight versions available if you accept to be a beta tester of sorts. I've had moderate success using it, but overall the code-server experience... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• Prompt2, heads up; they are readying up another version Prompt2 has been abandoned by devs since iOS 14 / 1y ago in a crashing state - Now they want to make another money-heist cash-grab from its users by forcing them to upgrade one of the most expensive apps of all time.

  If you're okay with a subscription model for a terminal type shell, I would recommend Blink. Does everything Prompt did and more. They have a 1-week trial, and then you can subscribe for $20 a year. Source: 10 months ago

• Ed25519-sk on iOS

  I took a wild stab at finding a non-subscription iOS app that supports Ed25519-sk, but ended up just moving back to ephemeral per-device ed25519 keys instead. Both Blink.sh and Terminus purport to support -sk / HW passkeys behind subscription paywalls, but I can't verify as I don't pay for subscription model apps. Source: about 1 year ago
