Yeah I think a local Git server would be good, will try our forgejo since people seem to like it— I’ve been using git for a lot of projects but not so much for large files and HW stuff since when using GitHub there are size limitations. Does seem like it would be freeing to be able to delete whatever I want from my workstation without worrying about losing stuff

Def going to check this out— I think it will solve my biggest problem with GitHub which is just the number of large files I have to deal with— overthought comments are the best comments- thanks!

Yeah, I really should start using Git for everything, but I’ve been working with a lot of large datasets recently (mostly EEG data). A big part of improving accuracy comes from cleaning the data, which is huge and takes a while to process. I could set up a local Git server to keep track of everything or just save the base data files and regenerate as needed, but on my current setup, that process can take anywhere from 2-6 hours depending on the task. So for now, I’ve just been managing everything locally to save time.

By why did Canada briefly regress to an electoral democracy from a liberal democracy in 2020?

What is sipstea?

IRC: it’s open source, it’s free, its retro

Spicy potato water

Actually she can’t be presidents can only pardon federal offenses and her sentence is due to state offenses so only the Colorado governed can pardon her I think— not that I think they would or should

I don’t pretend to know the complexities of your adult relationship; but from the two paragraphs I’ve read I’d say it might be time to get out of dodge if you can/want to.

Do they exude a certain positive attitude highlighting the good things from civilization or do you mean that putting them in contrast to the world of today things are good?

What is hexbear and .ml?

Do yoy know how they work generally? Can you get your own little space for stuff?

I can’t imagine this is true right? I mean there are some people like the guy with the Swiss accent that do things albeit most of them are more micro electronics which you might not need a large space for but…

But Linux is open source? So if hypothetically so distro adopted spying al la windows couldn’t people just change distros? tbh I also think the question is slightly confusing as I don’t understand why OP thinks Mac OS is not standardized but I digress.

I think one advantage lemmy might have is the possibility of expanding the number of sorting metrics allowing users to sort things the way they choose rather than a few monolithic sort options.

Why? I have to imagine it would be nice if I lived in a walkable city to wake up in the mornings by going for a walk with a coffee to wake up— I mean I might just go to coffee shop so I don’t have to lug it about but it doesn’t seem especially egregious

Careful that’s how we got the floods that one time…

Sleep 1 hour a day: if we assume you would normally have to sleep for 8 hours then your spending 33% of your life asleep vs 4% so you just made your life 29% longer. (Assuming you were just born)

The good thing is that we’ve had these types of corporations before in the guilded age and eventually we passed laws to break them up and instilled labor laws, while these protections have atrophied we can build them up again.

I think it will be better. I think trump will lose. I’ll graduate in December, I just got married, and we’re going to move out of my in-laws house sometime in the spring trading suburbia for a coastal urban city. I’m going to make new friends and have kids and ask them questions which will prepare them to be good and thoughtful citizens and whatever else they choose to become.

At this point you may, and rightly so, assume that mine are rose tinted glasses. However as a hobbiest student of history I’ve come to the conclusion that the world is always on fire. Humanity tends to have a bias towards bad news, and there is plenty of bad news around, but cynicism only incentivizes inaction. If we want to give the world the best chance for happiness in our time, to honor the legacy of those forebears who strove to build the better world of today, then we have to acknowledge the good.

This doesn’t mean ignoring the bad, or giving up on the better, but we have to immerse ourselves in the electrifying notion that civilization has moved over the past 200+ years gradually, with new and terrible acts of inhumanity along the way, toward better lives for the average human. We have a duty to fight for that trend so that we in our old age can scoff at the perceived slights of our progeny as our parents and elders do now. The disconnect between the generations in some ways can stand as a testament to the progress that has been achieved.

They don’t make cardboard like they used to so I’m going to get off my soap box before it sloughs into a pile of microplastics.
