Every time I use Super + T to open a terminal window, it's much smaller than I prefer. It's also centered on screen but I prefer it to be slightly off center to the right a bit.

Is there a way I can make new windows open to my preferences every time?

Sodium-ion batteries are set to disrupt the LDES market within the next few years, according to new research – exclusively seen by Power Technology’s sister publication Energy Monitor – by GetFocus, an AI-based analysis platform that predicts technological breakthroughs based on global patent data. Sodium-ion batteries are not only improving at a faster rate than other LDES technologies but they are also set to be cost comparable with the cheapest forms of dispatchable power, and therefore enter mainstream use, as early as 2027.

A tech service named Clerk put together a nice breakdown of how Passkeys work on a technical level. I've found many other explanations too focused on technical definitions rather than a conceptional overview or so simplistic they were unhelpful for me. This one feels like a nice balance between not enough information and too much.

The article is broken down into the sections below:

• What are passkeys?
• How does public key crypto work?
• A practical use of public-key cryptography
• How are passkeys more secure than a username and password?
• Clerk supports passkeys [this last section is irrelevant to anyone not interested in the service provided by Clerk]

Clerk provides some sort of user management service; I don't know nor care if it's any good.

Every season, the story seems to be the same — the Toronto Maple Leafs consistently perform well during the regular season, comfortably keeping themselves in a playoff spot year-round, only to fall short in the playoffs. This season, though, their regular-season success is faltering. They sit in the first wild-card spot, though they were expected to frontline the Atlantic Division again. Their problem? Depth scoring.

General manager Brad Treliving was brought in to pilot the team in May 2023, and his biggest priority was adding what he called “snot” or grit. The narrative was that the Maple Leafs were too “soft” to compete for the Cup and that their lack of grittiness was holding them back from postseason success. After all, hits increase in the playoffs.

Whether or not that’s the case — that grit means postseason success — is beside the point. There’s nothing inherently wrong with gritty players, but those players need to perform on top of their physical play. Skilled grit is a coveted asset in the league, with players like Timo Meier, J.T. Miller, Tom Wilson, and the Tkachuk brothers revered for holding their own physically while providing offensive as well.

That’s where Toronto has gone wrong. The grit they have added and targeted over the past few seasons has been somewhat skillless. Rather than focus on adding depth scoring, regardless of physicality, the team has focused far too much on the latter, and it has cost them dearly.

If so, how should we go about it?

It's mid season and there doesn't seem to be much interest in this community (Lemmy.World/c/Hockey) while Lemmy.ca/c/Hockey seems to be more regularly active. I was going to give it a full season, but I think the trend is pretty clear already.

A few weeks ago, the NHL finally unleashed its long-awaited player tracking data onto the public. Now it’s time to dissect what it all means.

Sometimes, all it means is “that’s cool!” — and that’s OK. Sometimes a fun little tidbit is all a stat has to be. But it’s still worth looking into how meaningful all the new numbers are and what bucket they fall into: relevant info or interesting trivia.

Each new stat poses its own interesting questions worth answering and that’s the goal of this series; diving into the new data to see how much it matters.

Let’s talk about shooting.

#Sens owner Michael Andlauer says #NHL did not advise him of either investigation - botched Dadonov "no-trade" clause or Pinto sports betting incident - before he closed on purchase.

“Maybe they didn’t want to disrupt [it] to make sure the seller got the best price possible."

"Why I inherited this is beyond me," #Sens owner Michael Andlauer says of #NHL punishment forcing team to forfeit first-round draft pick from an incident 591 days ago.

He doesn't understand why it took the league so long to render a decision.

Resigned? Fired? #Sens owner Michael Andlauer says he met with GM Pierre Dorion last night and said the penalty for forfeiture of pick should be "no less" than his job.

"This could have been avoided."

Dorion agreed and they agreed to part ways.
