  • Oh, yes we have. Gitlab, Codeberg, Notabug, etc. You can even host your own Gitea or Forgejo instance if you want.

    Self-hosting is right out for most people. It’s pretty expensive to even get started without compromising your home network (router with VLAN, switch, multiple servers (at least thinclients)), and then on top of that you need to maintain it, and can’t really ever max out your download/upload speeds because people are depending on your internet to interact with the repo.

    Gitlab is also for-profit, but also has blackouts and devs going rm -rf on the production DB. It’s often in the news for bad things, so I’ve generally avoided it.

    Codeberg is great for personal repos, but most smaller git hosting services have horrible SEO. Like I’ve had issues finding repos when searching for their exact name, if I had to use general search terms I’d only see github repos.




  • You interested in my attempt at integrating Emacs and stumpwm? It’s not great, but I managed to do some cool things like have Emacs emulate rofi for launching apps and as a pass frontend, and to unite key bindings in a smart way (for example, same shortcut: move stump window, move Emacs window, and if no Emacs tiles to that side move the whole Emacs window through stump).

    I really liked using it, but i3 has so many nice features.






  • Let it sit for about 3.5-4 minutes, then press, then pour.

    I think the steeping time should depend on the type of coffee and roast. A friend showed me their method for lighter roasts: 10 min steep -> stir coffee -> let sit for 5 more mins -> press and pour. The darker the roast, the quicker it will extract.

    When it gets warmer: pour cold water over slightly more coffee than usual, leave it overnight in the fridge, press and pour. I doubt you’ll be disappointed if you like robustas.


  • It seems like most of the nice-sounding ones are proprietary.

    That’s pretty standard. Most FOSS projects don’t have corporations feeding them 100’s of thousands of dollars. Even when they do, well people still say gimp is far worse than ps. Blender is one of the rare complex projects that can compete with proprietary alternatives.

    And any ideas why this is an underdeveloped area for open source?

    My best guess is that it’s really expensive and time consuming. I’d be surprised if those really good proprietary models didn’t cost $100k+ just for training.
