  • It's funny you say this, but when LLMs first started picking up steam, people used to bribe them and say they would give them lots of money and that it's doing a good job to motivate it. You would basically state that you will give it $500,000 dollars if it can get this task right. For some odd reason it would actually perform slightly better. Also it would get you around their filters.

  • Well yes, but also tariffs and the rising cost of components, such as memory are going to play into this. It's only going to get more expensive.

  • I mean, there was Sanders and look at what the Dems did to him. I don't think Hillary and Kamala are any better than Biden or Clinton either.

  • I mean this is just the reality of it. I'm right there with you. Dems tried it twice and we all saw how that went. I told my friend the other day that she will be president someday, just not now. Probably give it another 25-30 years though.

  • I installed zorin onto my son's computer. So far it's been pretty great.

  • So many these days. Actions are probably one of the best, but there are still plenty of others out there.

    • gitlab
    • dagger
    • concourseci
    • tekton
    • Spinnaker
    • harness
    • argo
    • flux
    • gocd

    If I were to pick one, it would probably be dagger. Or really anything but Jenkins.

  • Got impacted by this. So tired of this AI slop bringing everything down.

  • I highly doubt there will ever be parity. There will also be some differences where there can be improvements made over GitHub. Right now you only hear about individuals moving over or open source software. This is mainly because they don't need the enterprise features that GitHub has. I am not sure if you self hosted forgejo if you would get those as well. It's meant to be free. This is the biggest thing that would be missing. For individuals, I don't think you'll notice many differences.

    For your second question. It doesn't matter. What matters is git. There are 2 main ways to access this. SSH and http. All you really need is git. There are other tools out there like gitlab. Gitlab is pretty decent too, but the workflow is a bit different. You can even self host with gitlab too. You may not see many direct integrations to gitlab either, but people have been working with it for years now. There is also bitbucket. I think forgejo has a better chance at succeeding though if it continues to do what it's doing. Just tailor to the free and open source community. Really the only thing people need to do is create an account and set up some ssh keys. Beyond creating an account, there is no difference in how you clone a repo from GitHub and codeberg. Just copy the URL and do git clone.

    TL;DR GitHub and codeberg have different missions. It will be a similar experience and features for individuals or open source projects are close to the same on both platforms. You probably won't notice much of a difference.

  • If anything, just get some external drives or something lol. Depending on how much space you are using, you can also look at hetzner. They have storage boxes that are relatively cheap for cloud backups.

    You could also use OneDrive or Google, just make sure you encrypt everything. This way they don't actually have any of your data. It's just for backups.

    I have also been using storj with truenas. You get a discount this way, but storj just introduced new pricing, so I don't know how that impacts the discount or not

  • Please tell me you have proper backups for your next cloud instance

  • Stability? Update management? Window tiling? What? Linux does have all of these things. In fact Linux is way more stable than Windows, has better update management. Mind you, it does depend on the distro and the amount of stability you want, but I have been running Debian servers for years and I hardly run into problems.

    The only thing windows offers over Linux is gaming and a better UI. Even both of those are dwindling away. I hate the new windows 11 UI and most games work on Linux unless you require a rootkit for some anti cheat software.

  • Don't. I have had many in the past. They are great devices and easy to manage, but with their recent changes, they can no longer be recommended or trusted. I gave all mine away.

    You may be interested in unraid as that is also pretty easy to use. You can probably install unraid onto a qnap.

  • This seems pretty fair and reasonable, although, we should ask why people do this in the first place? Why is there so much pressure to get good or decent grades? If you are just going to college to get a degree and all you want to do is pass, then why go at all?

    College is a broken system right now. If things continue the way they are going, people will just learn how to use AI tools and go find a job. They don't even need to think for themselves, they can just have a computer do it for them.

  • Yes there is. You need to be able to transfer heat to something else. It doesn't just magically disappear. Space is a vacuum. I think you watch too many movies. You probably think that people will just instantly freeze in space without gear on.

    I'll give you an example. Do you have one of those water bottles that can keep your drink cold for like a day? The space in between is a vacuum. Why do you think that the liquid inside can say so cold for so long? It's the same principle. Imagine a data center floating around in this space, there is nowhere for the heat to go.

    The reason why earth is warm is because the sun radiates and heats up the ground on earth. This is also why it's colder the higher you go within the first few layers of our atmosphere and hotter near the ground.

    Basically, you have to radiate heat away from the data center in this case or transfer heat to one area or the other. It's not as simple as being like, hey space, take my heat will you? There is nothing to transfer it to.

  • That's not how space works though. It's a vacuum. It doesn't work the same way as on earth. What temperature do you think the side pointing to sun is? And what temperature do you think the side that is away from the sun is? Heat is just not going to magically transfer into space.

  • Are you suggesting that it's easy to do this?

  • Ok? How does Elon, the man with the biggest brain cells, expect to cool these space data centers?

  • Just use wire guard. This is what tunnels is and this is what tail scale uses

  • I'm not sure that is what they are advocating for. They have VAC which doesn't require kernel level access. If anything they will probably advocate this and that anti cheat can work without root level access.
