    For one, it's significantly easier to set up with Google Fi. That's the only context I personally have for eSIM.

    At The Game Awards last year, Elden Ring was FromSoft's second Game of the Year Award. Sekiro was the first :) so you're in for a great time!

    Hey there @sevan -- I've noticed that you've made 8 link posts in as many days, without providing any context or summary to the links you share. It's a bit low-effort drive-by-ish, and I'm not sure if it's really in the spirit of Tildes as a community?

    I can't find specific callouts for this kind of thing in the site philosophy docs, but felt like I needed to say something.

    Sporadically, I've been trying to finish up a v1.0 of what I'd call a "versioned, arbitrary dependency manager". The idea is you write some declarative indication of git repos, remote files, etc., along with their applicable versions, and the tool fetches them for you. Then they're just files -- you can gitignore them or not, use them to populate your working directories on a new machine, etc. etc.

    The motivation (specifically) was that I was tired of hacking around fetching protobuf dependencies every time I needed some, and the newish buf framework for them isn't something I enjoy using, and is too limited. And I LOATHE working with git submodules for code sources.

    Hoping to find time to pick it up again soon, because I would use it myself all the time!
