The binary executable for Fossil is a single file (repos are also single files, sqlite databases). That one executable does all the VCS functions but it also has a built-in web server that will host repos as a little customizable website. That's how you access the wiki, chat, forums, and ticketing system. You can also configure the repo, view timelines, view code, and all that stuff.
One can set up a proxy and publicly self-host the repo over the internet. That's what the official fossil site is, a hosted repo of it's own source code. I didn't feel like setting up a local web host, an ngnx reverse proxy, figuring out vpn for remote access, etc etc. So i just use synching and only run locally, because it's easier for me.
That's another nice thing about fossil, it's quite flexible and can grow with the needs of the project.
So is anyone not a woman automatically a man, or are they going to define that one separately? Is one presumed masculine until proven guilty (of womanhood)?
But where is the second giant sword for his other hand?
I really enjoyed it, no crashes on Steam Deck but it runs pretty poorly and yeah, occasional visual bugs.
Is this a variation on "there are only 2 stories: a person goes on a long journey, and a stranger comes to town." Some would argue those are two sides of the same story (digressions about this are the backbone of Lemony Snicket's Poison for Breakfast, an excellent light read).
So does Widow also go through a mutation arc and become an 8 legged horse at some point? Cause that sounds rad af
The dip in usage comes just as Microsoft has been forcing full-screen ads onto the machines of customers running Windows 10 to encourage them to upgrade.
Yeah no shit! When my computer does full-screen, disruptive things that I didn't tell it to do, I figure out how to remove that malware. I've been off Windows at home for about a month now, thanks Linux Mint! Getting some games to work has been challenging, but most things have just worked and quite a few work much better!
Performance is up overall, and my confidence that my computer isn't running a bunch of secret ad and spy ware is way up. Hardware like my gamepad and microphone would randomly disconnect and have issues on Windows, all working perfectly now.
Unfortunately I'm still deep in MS land for work, but there's almost a comedic quality to it. Everything's very slow, everyone has constant issues with Teams, or Office online, or Dynamics, or copilot shoving it's tendrils into everything. Watching businesses struggle to keep operating in the face of Microsoft's inadequacy is like being a mechanic watching a motor grind to a halt because the owner/manufacturer replaced all the oil with syrup.
Like yes, it's my problem to fix, but I'm just glad it's not my car.
(Obligatory, "oh thank God it's not the game engine")
I like where Ed's at on this issue, and have all along. I wonder if there's any analysis to link NFTs and blockchain boosters back to the AI pushers as well? In both cases, you've got technology that require huge amounts of GPU power. How much AI hype was over-leveraged NFT scammers trying to shift their compute power into the next profitable scam?
Metaverses too are GPU hungry, not as much though, too consumer focused.
Maybe next we'll see a return to streaming games, but in VR with rented/subsidized rigs?
Shall we brainstorm other ways that running GPUs at 99% capacity at all times can be used to bilk suckers out of their money?
Hmmm... I guess "Matrix" is an overly popular name for apps, or else someone is very confused because my secure chat is still up.
Also, don't stockpile evidence against yourself, even if it's in a locked room, especially is many people have keys. Vanishing messages, rotate keys, rotate chats: there are many security practices that could have helped them here.

Running theory is that it relates to this book.
I wonder also if the timing is related to it being open enrollment right now. For non-USians, you contract for health insurance for a year at a time, and are required by law to renew or buy different insurance every year. This period of renewal/purchase is "open enrollment". For many, their employer provides a menu of 1 to a few options for plans to pick from. Or you can buy on the "open market," but usually at worse rates than an employer can negotiate.
Anyway, it's a magical time of year when you realize how hard you've been getting fucked by the insurance companies, and "negotiate" how hard you'll get reamed in the new year. It's quite dehumanizing: trying to bargain and haggle with yourself over how much health you can afford, what you'll give up so your kids can have dental coverage, whether you should "take the bet" on extra life insurance coverage, etc.
Not a shock to me that right now is when someone would snap.
