I saw "winfetch" but it didn't have sixel support, so... I implemented something using the PowerShell Sixels & TerminalBlocks modules.
This requires some stuff on this pre-release branch (not to mention pre-releases of other things), but it's pretty enough, I wanted to share it anyway ;-)

About

I ❤️ OpenSource, Scripting, PowerShell, Python, dotnet, VSCode. I'm a Principal DevOps Engineer, and a 14x Microsoft MVP for PowerShell. I also care about fairness and justice, which has combined with my career to lead to my interest in open source, open culture, encryption and federation. Call me he/him, and think of me as a Luke 18:27 believer: a Jesus follower who cares about social justice, urban renewal, and open culture.
