What you’re showing here is an extra processing step, but I wouldn’t call that manual.

Yes, it’s not manual by the dictionary definition, but it is an extra step. This is another meaning of manual in my particular bubble [Edit: that I didn’t think to specify].

But a much better idea would be to use sensors -j to get json output, intended for machine reading, and pass that to jq.

This is my initial point, exactly. Dealing with objects is way easier than using the ‘default’ line-wise processing. Only Powershell made that the default, while in Linux you need to hope that utilities have an option to toggle it on – and then also have jq installed to process the objects.

I look forward to seeing how you would do this in PS. As I said previously, I don’t know it at all, so I’m not sure what you’re comparing this to.

[Edit, since I forgot to answer your main point:] I don’t program in PS. I don’t like the verbosity. But I do think MS has a point in pushing objects as the prime unit in processing instead of lines.

How about Intel?

Exactly. This is supposed to show that what @[email protected] demands is already law in the EU.

For instance: Get the temperature of the “Composite” sensor from this output:

$ sensors
k10temp-pci-00c3
Adapter: PCI adapter
Tctl:         +37.1°C  

BAT1-acpi-0
Adapter: ACPI interface
in0:          16.07 V  
curr1:         1.80 A  

amdgpu-pci-0500
Adapter: PCI adapter
vddgfx:        1.46 V  
vddnb:       918.00 mV 
edge:         +35.0°C  
slowPPT:     1000.00 uW 

nvme-pci-0200
Adapter: PCI adapter
Composite:    +28.9°C  (low  =  -5.2°C, high = +79.8°C)
                       (crit = +84.8°C)

acpitz-acpi-0
Adapter: ACPI interface
temp1:        +37.0°C  (crit = +120.0°C)

Without a cryptic awk incantation that only wizards can understand, that would be:

sensors | grep Composite | grep -Po 'Composite:.*?C' | grep -Eo '[[:digit:]]{1,2}\.[[:digit:]]'

That wasn’t what I intended to say, but I’m not disagreeing with that either.

Article 82, paragraph 1 of the GDPR:

Any person who has suffered material or non-material damage as a result of an infringement of this Regulation shall have the right to receive compensation from the controller or processor for the damage suffered.

Paragraph 2:

Any controller involved in processing shall be liable for the damage caused by processing which infringes this Regulation

Article 24, paragraph 1:

**[T]he controller shall **implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure and to be able to demonstrate that processing is performed in accordance with this Regulation.

Article 5, paragraph 1f:

Personal data shall be: […] processed in a manner that ensures appropriate security of the personal data, including protection against unauthorised or unlawful processing and against accidental loss,

Article 83, paragraphs 2 and 5:

Each supervisory authority shall ensure that the imposition of administrative fines pursuant to this Article in respect of infringements of this Regulation referred to in paragraphs 4, 5 and 6 shall in each individual case be effective, proportionate and dissuasive.

Infringements of the following provisions shall, in accordance with paragraph 2, be subject to administrative fines up to 20 000 000 EUR, or in the case of an undertaking, up to 4 % of the total worldwide annual turnover of the preceding financial year, whichever is higher:

(a) the basic principles for processing, including conditions for consent, pursuant to Articles 5, 6, 7 and 9;

I have no clue what grapheneos is, but if it won’t run GIMP, then it’s a shitty OS.

Don’t you think immediately getting the property you’re interested in from an object is easier and more readable than first grepping some output to get the line you want and then removing the leading and trailing garbage on that line manually?

I thing PS scripting would be much more fun if the words weren’t so annoyingly long.

If you edit code with find/replace, you need a better IDE. Just a hint.

That’s where my ecosystem shines, since it’s all open source. If there’s a bug that I can fix, but the maintainer won’t, I’ll just fork the repo.

I’m not sure how the GDPR would apply to a service subscription. While the service is running, the companies have legitimate interest to keep your data, so you can’t have it removed.

Time to write a ‘Known limitations’ section.
