Discarding of these catalogs is a huge mistake. What if there is no power? What if there is a war, the IT system breaks and no one is able to fix it for the lack of parts and eventually lack of knowledge? These records are too valuable not

You know what is my pet peeve with Linux guis? Mouse movement. Why is it that despite spending a collective week of work hours on it and testing every single acceleration band speed setting it still feels like my mouse is imprecise and slow

I wonder, were you being ironic? It seems both of these things sound pretty decent. There are millions of people that treat depression with drugs and horniness with porn... I can't say I see any problems with either.

We(as in everyone) are in a serious need of a new git server product. Just do git serving, and do it well. Preferably in a way multiple nodes can be run active-active for scaling and reliability. No need for cicd (Jenkins is fine for that,

I wonder, does reddit have all their servers in the US? Seems like such a large site would have some POPs in the EU. If so, they should fall under the GDPR which let's users ask for a copy of all their data (a-la Google takeout)

I think step 2 has been figured out a long time ago: personal not for profit blogs and sites with an rss feed and a "links" section (preferably divided by interests). Such sites still do exist, but usually around various hobbies.
