You. This is valid C# code. Guess what it does [Wayback/Archive]:
for ( var (f,l) = (1, 10); f <= 10; Console.WriteLine($"{f} + {l} = {f + l}"), f++, l-- );

If you ever need a large bunch of Mac minis in a data center, then start reading at [Wayback/Archive] GitHub – Uptime-Lab/KVM-rack-stand-for-16-Mac-minis.
The repository by Ivan Kuleshov has all information you need, including scripts for Pi-KVM, and 3D printing STL source files.
It was covered in [Wayback/Archive] The MagPi issue 139 — The MagPi magazine (direct [Wayback/Archive] MagPi139.pdf; it’s too large for [Wayback] Goole Docs on-line viewing).

This is cool and works well (including the portable version) :[Wayback/Archive] webcamoid/webcamoid: Webcamoid is a full featured and multiplatform webcam suite.
Most code is C++ with bits using the QML language of the Qt cross platform UI library.
It reminded me of the Kylix days: the first Linux version of Delphi where the CLX GUI framework was a rework of VCL but based on Qt instead of Win32 GDI.
The downloads are at [Wayback/Archive] Webcamoid, The ultimate webcam suite! with installable and portable versions of 32-bit and 64-bit for Linux, Mac and Windows (I have tried the latter, see below why).

The toxic reactions to [Wayback/Archive] What would be good alternatives to Stack Overflow for questions about software solutions to drive hardware? – Meta Stack Overflow were surely inviting to never ever try and help improving StackOverflow again.
Lesson learned: Stack Overflow won’t ever be the welcoming environment it was 15 years ago and the toxicity will make it slowly become obsolete.
Hopefully the smaller Stack Exchange sites will take a long while to go in that direction.
Via [Wayback/Archive] Jeroen Wiert Pluimers @wiert@mastodon.social on X: “The @StackOverflow toxicity: you start a discussion on meta to get better guidance for the community at large. – 13 downvotes & counting – a bunch of comments of which the majority is not helpful – no answers Deleting 429663. Never trying to help improving the situation again.”

Bitbucket nuked all Mercurial repositories in 2020 in the midst of my cancer treatment so back then I wrote Sunsetting Mercurial support in Bitbucket – Bitbucket
So I am glad there is [Wayback/Archive] Mercurial Bitbucket Archive | Index
This is the archive of all public Mercurial projects that were hosted on Bitbucket before they [Wayback/Archive] removed Mercurial support on July 1, 2020. Some projects might be unavailable or incomplete because they were deleted or made private before we had a chance to archive them.
