    A strange "terminal emulator" idea I got, tho I bet this exists

  • You could create a list of commands in a text file, and then pipe that into fzf. With a light wrapper that would allow you to type a portion of the command to select and execute it.

    Left hand keypad with D pad and scroll wheel?

  • The Azeron and reWASD software are Windows only, unfortunately. That said, there is storage for two profiles in the device, so it can be used with a Linux machine after it is configured with the Azeron software. I've heard of folks using AntiMicroX on Linux to configure it, but have never tried myself.

  • If you're OK with stepping away from a standard keyboard, I have an Azeron Cyborg that I use for most of my games. Paired with reWASD, it is infinitely customizable. It's a bit pricey, but I love having a thumbstick in the mix. Not quite what you're looking for, but maybe it provides some inspiration?

    Where does the Terminal app store SSH keys

  • The key is stored in IndexedDB. You can read more about that at https://developer.chrome.com/docs/devtools/storage/indexeddb.

    It's not readily available from the Terminal.app UI, but you can get there. Press Ctrl+Shift+I to open the Inspector. Select Application from the top tabs. On the left, under Storage, go to IndexedDB > indexeddb-fs > nassh-rootfs > directory. Look through the list of fullPath entries to find the appropriate entity. In the Value column, locate the data property and click the memory inspector icon to the right of it.

  • I use Chrome Remote Desktop daily. I don't know if it's the best, but it works great for me. https://remotedesktop.google.com/

    Is there a Linux based OS for public computers, such as at a library or a PC cafe?

  • ChromeOS Flex is an interesting choice for kiosks. There's a great case study from Nordic Choice Hotels: https://cloud.google.com/blog/products/chrome-enterprise/nordic-choice-hotels-bounces-back-ransomware-attack-chromeos-flex.

  • AsciiDoc for plain text markup. It handles more use cases, and has fewer ambiguities in the standard than Markdown.
