That's interesting, we don't follow that procedure over here. The tree goes up, presents sit under it. As a child, I got to open presents from extended family members the night of Christmas Eve. Then, presents from Santa on Christmas morning and a big dinner that night. In my family, we'd have Thanksgiving dinner (turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, etc) again because none of us really liked ham, which was the most popular choice of entree.

I'd consider this a feature, not a bug, but I'm glad you got it to work in the end. Where did you get the CPU and board?

I would recommend starting at the beginning of one of the cities (the videos are organized in YouTube playlists). Verde Beach is my personal favorite, but you can take your pick. It's extremely gratifying to watch a city grow from the ground up.
Eventually, I'll make the script public so anyone can easily maintain archives. There's still a lot I want to do before that, though.~
However, simple clones are inefficient on disk space and a simple
git fetch
will happily obliterate its history if the remote says so.My goals are as follows.
1. Create high quality archives of a large number of repositories and keep them up to date.
2. Make them resilient against attacks from the inside, including (but not limited to) force-pushing an empty history and maliciously deleting branches on the remote.
3. Minimize storage and bandwidth usage, including (but not limited to) running
git gc --aggressive
when cloning and not fetching unnecessary commits, e.g. Dependabot and pull requests.
My goals are a little different.
1. Create and maintain very high quality archives.
2. Make them resilient against attacks from the inside, including (but not limited to) force-pushing an empty history and maliciously deleting branches on the remote.
3. Minimize resource usage of the local machine and that of the remote, including running
git gc --aggressive and not fetching refs for Dependabot, pull requests, etc.
I wonder if I could push to a Git remote with my current setup. That would be the simplest way to do public distribution *and* remote backups.
Also, Portal 64 kept freezing on me so I played F-Zero X instead.
Portal64 looks interesting, I haven't heard about it. I might need to get an N64 emulator going.
However, since it's so easy to add new ones, it's mostly repositories which aren't likely to disappear but carry a lot of value. For example, 143 MiB on my hard drive for the complete history of FFmpeg is a no-brainer for me.
@movq, I'm glad it only broke your client a little bit. Yarnd seems to have handled it pretty well.

> The biggest question is what is “misinformation”, I believe the answer change according your beliefs.
Exactly. I remember when it was an insane, racist conspiracy theory that COVID-19 leaked from the Wuhan lab, now it's right there on Wikipedia.
Conversely, do you remember that study from Imperial College that projected 2.2 million deaths from COVID in the US alone? Total misinformation.
> Misinformation purveyors have very detailed strategies for how to draw unsuspecting people into an echo chamber and keep them there.
I'd say a pretty good way to get people into an echo chamber is to force them into their own space where their ideas get no pushback at all.
To make the amount of options less confusing, how about putting each day into an HTML details element? Also, is the source available yet?
I have a Dual 2GHz G5 in storage. I wanted to set it up with a modern OS and have a usable non-x86 machine, but I don't have much time to tinker nowadays.

Did you run Leopard for all that time on your G5?

> Now I can’t play either CDs or LPs since I don’t have a player.
Sure, but you still *own* that music. You can buy a player at any time and play them. You can take them to a friend's house and play them there. You can even rip all your albums to digital files and copy them to your flash modded iPod.
In terms of durability, both CDs (pressed, not burned) and LPs will last a long time if you take care of them.
Youtube, Spotify, and Amazon offer convenience, but that convenience comes at the cost of your freedom. You are not permitted to do what you want with the content you paid for. You must also understand that you will lose access to that content at some time, occasionally without warning, and that time may be closer than you think.
The best of both worlds are DRM-free marketplaces like Qobuz, Gogs, and HDtracks.
> are there other examples?
Python, Ruby, Perl, Rust. Sometimes even Go. There's a little bit of this in every language with an official package manager. I'd say Python and NodeJS are the worst offenders, though.
> I feel like I pick on NodeJS / NPM too much
I don't think we pick on NodeJS/NPM *enough*.
> “dependency hell” comes from this “exponential dependency tree” that we inevitably see in ecosystems like NodeJS / NPM
Yes, and these "ecosystems" try to put a band-aid on it by allowing packages to specify which *version* of a package they need. All that means is you get 7 different versions of the same package bloating up your node_modules folder and 6 critical vulnerabilities from one package.
Then, it's impossible to keep track of all 1200 of your dependencies and sub-dependencies, so you get a robot to do it for you: Dependabot. What happens when Dependabot dies? Absolute chaos.
NodeJS library authors could just write better libraries and avoid breaking changes every update, and NodeJS software developers in general could fix their programs when they break, but they don't. It's on the "ecosystem" to solve for this, and it inevitably does a terrible job.
When your 5 dependencies each have 5 dependencies of their own, then you have a problem.
@axodys, when you get access, do you think you could share what sorts of unsolicited network requests it makes?
@xuu Only the 1st gen iPod had the scroll wheel. The 2nd and 3rd gen had a touch-sensitive wheel with separate buttons. The clickwheel (touch-sensitive wheel with integrated buttons) was introduced for the Mini and was used in all the main line iPods from the 4th generation on.
They can even run a free operating system, allowing you to drag and drop music files onto the iPod (without iTunes) and play many different file formats. I use a 5th gen myself.

> So I think the PR to add support for Twtxt to Mastodon is probably not going to happen by the looks of it
That's not what I got from reading that thread. I think it's more than possible that we'll see outbound integration with twtxt. Kudos to Jeremy Potter for submitting that patch. He seems to have deleted his account on twtxt.net so I can't mention him properly.
As for inbound integration, I think a self-hosted bridge, independent from yarnd or any ActivityPub implementation, is the way to go.

I'm not afraid of the network growing, I'm actually very excited to see it grow. My concern was with keeping *my* real-life and online identities separate.
