If being a corporate hoe taught me anything, it’s that you should NEVER sacrifice your health, including your mental health, for a company.
If you burn out, no colleague is going to care for you. If you fall ill, no boss is going to visit you. If you die, oh, you’ll very much have someone from the company go to your funeral : they need to be sure you’re indeed dead so that they can stop paying your salary.
Reminds me of IP over avian carriers ☺
Came into the thread just to say this. Very happy and thankful you mentioned it already. I think fossil is THE underrated vcs.
I’d like to mention https://chiselapp.com/, since OP’s wish is, AFAICT, to have a service that’s hosted elsewhere.
LFS (Linux From Scratch), though building a custom NetBSD or OpenBSD Kernel and making an ISO with custom packages/configuration is a lot easier.
You’re speaking in the past tense. There are at least two more joke distros around which are active as of now: Justin Bieber Linux (‘Biebian’) and Rebecca Black OS…
Actually, the only way I’ve been able to make sense of what happened is thinking that he might have been interested in me, correctly sensed I’d never be, and didn’t want to be hurt.
Once I was in the train, minding my own business, reading an unusual, interesting book. The guy seating in front of me noticed it and we started talking. It turned out, we live in the same city. We both were relatively new there.
FF a week. We went out to get some burgers. Talked about basically everything. We had what could only qualify as a wonderful time together. Chatted for hours, even talked about travelling together to a country I know relatively well and he’d like to visit.
Where I live, split checks are custom. I always hated them, so thinking (wrongly, as it’d turn out) we’d see each other again very soon, I paid for the whole bill.
Before going home, I even cited Casablanca’s well known ‘beginning of a long friendship’ line.
Never heard from him after that. When I tried to reach out, only a half-hearted bs ‘oh sorry, I’m so bad at replying texts’ came.
Never saw him again.
Really shattered my confidence in people, and myself.
Angus, if you’re out there. WTF man. Why.
Try Mojeek. I don’t like, at all, that it’s based in the UK, but at least it’s not Gringoland. Easy-to-use, own web index, truly independent company with own ad syndication (no Bing).
I have a similar issue with people panicking about AS ‘taking their jobs’, or even the world. I’m like, dude, that might happen, but idiots delegating important decisions (i.e., decisions that should DEFINITELY be taken by humans), to the AS is something that’s a) at least as ominous b) at least as relevant and c) already happening
Put even another way, correlation is not causality. Even IF everything were true, the most interesting/relevant information is missing: does AS cause these behaviours? Or does it simply act as a catalyzer?
Don’t tell the Orange maggot. He’ll try to 'grab ‘em by the p***y’.
‘Las verdades incuestionables de hoy, son las pendejadas del mañana’
Sex as well.
I’ll just throw in the mandatory ‘He didn’t choose Orange Life. Orange Life chose him’.
Well, now that y’all put it that way, I think it was pretty naive from me to think that these companies, whose business model is basically theft, would honour a lousy robots.txt file…

What advantage does this software provide over simply banning bots via robots.txt?

I first thought this article was about their self driving cars and I was like who tf gets in a self driving car with their baby. It’s not. It’s about Tesla cars in general. Scary stuff.
I think they meant ‘because’
A real mystery indeed.
I still find it hard to believe just how few people even ask themselves the obvious : Provides services ‘for free’, but is one of the world’s biggest companies. Where is the money coming from ?
