Chillsynth / retrowave album recommendations? Has to have actual melody, not just chords morphing one into another.

@mariusor @internetarchive We don't really need that -- we have archive.kernel.org as well. E.g. we prepped things for https://archive.kernel.org/oldwiki/git.wiki.kernel.org/ already.

I plan on sunsetting all wikis at kernel.org by archiving them to static sites, migrating them to RTD-style docs, or just turning them off if they haven't been updated in 10+ years.

@drewdevault Dark matter is just git objects from alternate timelines that haven't yet been pruned.

@etienne I'm not really "seeing anything coming." I just saw way too many "it could never happen" things actually go ahead and happen in the past decade or so.

@etienne now imagine that Microsoft sells the GitHub division to Ouijaboard (I mean another company here, but last time I mentioned them by name, they complained to my boss).

@aesthetikx layoffs, turning off free APIs, increasingly desperate attempts to monetize everything. You name it.

Everything happening right now with Twitter will happen with GitHub.

@brauner oh, I posted a screenshot of what I thought was someone having a good joke asking the helpdesk how to "remove an illegal brain implant used to control their thoughts."
However, the follow-up email from the same person was... macabre, and illustrated that they are probably legitimately mentally unwell. :(

@ljs It started in 2008 with the invasion of Georgia. There was zero tangible response and it defined the next two decades.

@wagi I hear that all the time about Montreal and it being on the same latitude as the South of France. I then invite those people to come and experience a balmy -30C wind chill, which is a common thing here in February (e.g. tomorrow's forecast).

Ok, I thought someone was just pulling my leg with that last message to helpdesk, but there's now a follow-up from the same person, and it's clear that they genuinely need medical attention -- the kind I'm most certainly not qualified to offer. :(

Me: I wonder why I don't work from the couch that often.
Me, 5 minutes later: Oh. Right.

@kernellogger my take on it is unique -- it's pretty expensive on the server side, but it is only really a problem when a bunch of shallow clones are performed at once (e.g. when a CI farm does it across 50 nodes or something). When that happens, it overwhelms the server.
If an actual human being does a single shallow clone it's not a big deal.

@vbabka no idea, it's not showing me the transfer rate. Just 57% for the past few hours.
