From my understanding, when installing an alternate OS (ie lineage) you can dive deeper into the partitioning of the device's os and see all components/folders. Under `vendor` you can choose not to install firmware for different kinds of stuff (wifi, baseband).


That's the most dystopian sh*t I've seen here in a while.


It makes sense tho for them to go for suggested content, because the can make you like stuff. That's their thing. It's no random thing they've been hiring psyops veterans of the afghanistan war. They can push things


Have a look at Gitea. You can run it as a podman rootless container off the box on your local machine. The functionality is there, the community refuses to switch. There people who still have the idea that gh is still whatvit was 10 years ago.


We tried to migrate to Gitea at my company, ~100 repositories with a bunch of mirrors, lots of CI, renovate-bot using the API, etc. It was a disaster. It was unusably slow (10+ seconds to load the list of pull requests, API calls to open a new pull request timing out after 60s) despite never using more than a tiny fraction of the resources of a 16-core server. We tried to engage with the community to find out the cause of the slowness and were met with open hostility.


/* I know it's off-topic, but symptoms look very much like a DNS problem, or a firewall problem. */


A DNS or firewall problem that causes Gitea to intermittently spend 10+ seconds responding to requests, when running in a cluster alongside other containers that have no such problems? Can you describe a plausible mechanism for that?

We did some profiling and spent quite a bit of time looking at Gitea's source code, it was pretty clear in the end that it's just very very inefficient for large setups. It does an excessive amount of I/O on the Git repositories every time you load a page; there is some caching but not enough / not of the right things. We were really open to implementing fixes and submitting PRs but the community was so hostile that we just abandoned it.

It was overall an enormous waste of time and I can't recommend Gitea to anyone with a setup larger than a handful of small repositories.


I was looking for a simpler GitLab alternative. I guess Gitea is off the list now.

I wonder how CodeBerg works though.


The petit-bourgeoisie elegies here are ridiculous. You take the higher moral ground by establishing that you have "studied pedagogy and know all about it" and then you proceed with providing cliché points on how education has failed. How can you apply critisism to a system you have been indoctrinated by? How fruitful is it gonna be?


company stooge.


The course is really neat. Some of the candidate projects involving 9p virtio integration are suoerb ideas. Did the CoW lab exersice for one of my courses. The xv6 manual is very detailed as well.
