I had no issue with regular distro update channels (those have mirrors all over) but couldn't get updates from PPAs (i.e. third-party). Feels backwards a bit.
Bit of a tangent, but what I'm looking for is a S3-compatible server with transparent storage, ie storing each file (object) as an individual file on disk.
Minio used to do that but changed many years ago. Production-grade systems don't do that, for good reason. The only tool I've found is Rclone but it's not really meant to be exposed as a service.
When the device sync finally works reliably or bookmark tags work on mobile, I will concede that you've turned a corner. What I expect is more theming and AI bullshit, time will tell.
I'm not trying to argue against it, I think "slave" branches make no sense anyway, but to GP's point BitKeeper didn't enslave anybody, just used the word.
If we believe we should remove allusions to negative things why are we ok with "kill", "orphan", "evict", "bash", "cut", "isolate" etc? What is special about that terrible concept that we should stop using the word even when not applied to people at all?
Is there some high-level overview of this "cascade of Ribbon filters" data structure? I understand bloom filters, but couldn't get any intuition for this one from FB's blog post.
What does the verifiable program do though? With a VPN, what I'm concerned about is my traffic not being sniffed and analyzed. This code seem to have something to do with keys but it's not clear how that helps...?
Unfortunately education everywhere is getting really hurt by access to AI, both from students who are enabled to not their homework, and by teacher review/feedback being replaced by chatbots.
Yeah that's not happening. In fact most services with free tiers still ask for a credit card number, and if not still ask for a lot of information. It is a marketing scheme after all.
