Sounds to me like lawyers got wind of it and were worried that NVIDIA might sue them because they paid to have it made. They would likely be concerned about this whether or not NVIDIA had a case.

Even everyone's favourite Gary Brannan, Gary Brannan?

You could probably do a season about how all the people making up and spreading the conspiracies are all part of a conspiracy...

I'm already on an independent git forge, so I have that covered.

I only read the protocol document and skimmed the guide, so I didn't see the cryptocurrency angle of the funding company. Yeah, that's a bit of a warning sign.

Um... It's literally hosting itself, complete with issues and PRs (which they call patches). So to me it seems to replace a forge.

For private repos, it could be quite a good fit. No need for other contributors/users.

I was looking for something like this as a private alternative to GitHub/GitLab last month. Awesome to stumble across this.

In fact, Lord Rutherford said that "ALL models are wrong, but some are useful" 🙂

This is interesting because I've been thinking about switching from Debian to Arch. I'm already running Nix inside of my Debian installation to get more recent apps (I don't like how snap interacts with the rest of the system, so I avoid it if I can).

Is there anything else on a more base OS level (like apt v pacman) that you've noticed is different, if you're willing to share?

This one hits a little different than it used to...

TIL about Rainmeter. This thread has done some good, beyond the obvious good of mocking Dev Home.

Makes sense. I can't blame you for taking that position. I think we need a paid search engine: if you're not paying you're the product, after all.

IIRC, most legal scholars believe that shrinking the court doesn't get rid of existing justices as they are appointed for life. It simply prevents the appointment of new ones.
