at this point “prism” must be one of the most overused project names, there’s no hope for any seo using that name

yeah, I know of two other tools with that name just from my workplace, both probably suggested by ai

GitHub is good enough to people keep using it. With the exception of the AI-induced downtimes last month, other platforms have as many problems as GH does, but GH gets the bad rep because it’s the one everyone uses and has an opinion about.

Despite old problems that still annoy me, they actually have an impressive and unmatched set of features too, so one can’t move away without some compromise. For the most part, you might find Forgejo/Codeberg and others to meet your needs, but it’s going to take a long time to match GitHub’s maturity in some things like code search.

I know, but the main use i have for github is collaboration, and I don’t want to expose a forgejo instance I’m hosting myself.

I don’t move mine because of the hard limits at 100 repos and 100 MB of private storage. I wouldn’t mind paying to have more, but that’s not an option.

edit: it seems one can request limit increases, but I have no idea what’s their approval criteria.

I wish I had half as much trust with someone as anthropic has with that company to let them casually rack up 500M in use.

Jesus, there’s so much FUD in that gist. A lot of information out of date and emotional tone to the brim. Makes you wonder who’s putting that much time and effort to support an outdated system like x11 and what they gain from that.

The reality is that the main desktop managers, and by extension the most popular distros are abandoning x11, so that’s just a silly hill to die on.

I don’t think it violates ToS, it’s public data. One can even search for emails directly like this and get millions of matches

https://github.com/search?q=%2F.*%40gmail.com%2F&type=commits

it’s a shitty thing to do, and I wouldn’t want my name or company associated to it, but I don’t think it violates ToS

but that’s how git works… if you have public commits anyone can get that email, it’s not github leaking it, it’s you

if this is an address publicly visible from commits, anyone can do it

set a noreply address for future commits

git config --global user.email "username@users.noreply.github.com"

I’d just take it out if it’s removable. If you really care about keeping it on during power outages, I’d get an actual UPS to have router and potentially other equipment also plugged in, because I don’t see a “remote” laptop on its own as being very useful without at least the local network up.

if you decide to leave it plugged in, you can configure it to stop charging at e.g. 80% and charge it again at e.g. 30%, that way it keeps a percentage that will extend the battery life.

that section 2.8 was removed https://blog.cloudflare.com/updated-tos/

new terms https://www.cloudflare.com/terms/

I believe that’s not in their terms for years now, at least in my untrained eyes

worth mentioning the old TOS banned video streaming across cloudflare products, but I don’t see a similar umbrella restriction in the current base terms, or in the terms of cloudflare zero trust.

also, make sure you have the rights to transmit the content and are not infringing anyone’s intellectual property rights, ofc 😇
