You can just buy the closest match and cut off a bit of the end. In the end it's much better for everyone to standardize on the superior units

SRV lookups for http would have been great as some ISPs block well known ports.

At the same time there has never been another point in history where so much open source software is freely available to everyone.

There is plenty of software on your local machines that can be hacked risk free. No one will care if you find an exploit in your own IoT doormat.

Ah fair enough. The change makes sense then.

IMO Master makes sense. The Master user is in full control, there is no one higher than the master.

Git sensibly calls the master branch `master`.

All the extra features is the main selling point of GitLab. It's the reason you use it over GitHub because GitLab is more than just repo hosting and issue tracking.

Sort of yeah. Semi-hidden/private groups on IM apps can be really good.

How is getting a VPS and running a git server, then setting up everyone's SSH key and accounts and then setting up accounts on trello and whatever other services you need (How are you doing CI in this setup) meant to be easier than dro

No one wants to self host wikipedia but many self host wikis that are off topic for wikipedia.

Being able to self host and fork are huge, if GitLab ever goes off in a bad direction there will be a fork instantly that can continue.

You have obviously never used gitlab in depth. I have never seen a tech company so open about everything they do with the community.

Gitlab is a 100% remote company so everything they do is communicated online and a huge chunk of the time they publish their communications and decision making. You can read all the things the considered while working out if they should rem

Source on gitlab crashing? I'm using it right now and it's fine other than the monitoring page getting resized right now due to very unusual load.

I have been using gitlab heavily for the last year and since then nothing terrible has happened. The worst thing was for one day it was pretty slow but was fixed the next day and no data was lost. GitLab today in my opinion is now a better

Which is why I can't use it because most of my messages are sent from desktop.

Many don't for that exact reason. Restrictions is one of the main arguments for pc gaming.

The people who would stop buying iphones over this were never buying iphones to begin with.

I think the best option is picking your own gatekeeper. fdroid and redhat are the gatekeepers of my system but if they turn bad I can choose better ones.

iOS doesn't allow this because Apple makes shitloads more money from mobile than desktop. They recently blocked Valves app from iOS because it allows you to stream games from another device which puts apples cut from the app store at r

Also Google has been doing the same thing for ages. You don't get a job at google and then think "Wow they track data, I'm gonna leave on day one" If you found their tracking objectionable you never would have taken the
