Alrighty, old Linux user from the earliest of days.

It was fun, really great to have one-on-one with Linus when Lilo gave issues with the graphic card and the screen kept blank during booting.

It was new, few fellow students where interested, but the few that did, all have serious jobs in IT right know.

Probably the mindset and the drive to test out new stuff, combined with the power Linux gave.

Nice write-up by Jeff.

Things are getting out of hand. It's time for a change. Only buy equipment with local access.

Not medically trained or experiencing any illnesses, but keep this in mind:

In just a few years, the medical world made huge steps in treating a lot of things using RNA techniques.

Don't compare a situation 10 or 20 years ago with the possibilities today.

Cars.

  • mechanical, no software bugs
  • physical buttons, no touch screen
  • everything just worked, no need to license the heating of your chair
  • freaking lane assist

You get it..

Vlans firewall rules and something to route between the different networks.

This can all be achieved with pretty much every Linux installation.

Exactly this. Foolish ideas from someone behind a desk.

Nerds and hackers will win this easily.

Alrighty,

So your system knows the exact situation and still is slowing down my bike, just at the moment I need to accelerate to avoid being overrun by that large truck heading into me.

How stupid are these folks? We've got rules, when people don't follow those rules, you fine them. Case closed.

No system to prevent a bike speeding, teach people to obey the law.

Forgejo ftw!

Self hosting here, also with runners to create a complete ci/cd line.

Cars. Either entertainment system or navigation or more..

BMW has quite the list of licences for opensource libraries and Linux in the about section of the car-menu.

And more and more network equipment.

In run a personal instance of forgejo, love it.

Everything I want regarding version control and workers. And more lightweight on the frontend side.

This exactly. Just ask for some location rights in the app and get access to wifi also.

Most users don't mind giving an app a large amount of access and in doing so, a lot of personal information gets exposed.

If you have a choice, use a website.

Noticed someone mentioning this (the product ) last weekend and did a next-next-finish install on some old hardware.

This is really nice, got me some nice actions running already.

I used to build locally and use git, cgit and Trac, but will probably move everything to forgejo.
