personally, I’ve heard a lot more “bottle of water” than “water bottle” in the US

this “reads from left to right” really doesn’t hold up

find a suitable location with plentiful water or prepare a paddy field. Soak rice seeds in water for a few days until they sprout, then transplant the seedlings into the flooded field, maintaining about 9-12 inches between them. Keep the field consistently irrigated and weeded until the rice matures and is ready for harvest.

Well, that's the point where the user, in theory, goes "this is weird, why is
it 39 commits," and does Ctrl-C, but I'm happy to accept blame here -- we
should be more careful with this operation and bail out whenever we recognize
that something has gone wrong. To begin with, we'll output a listing of all
the commits that will be rewritten, just to make it more obvious when things
are about to go wrong.

Thanks for looking into this. Linus, this is accurate and I am 100% convinced
that there was no malicious intent. My apologies for being part of the mess
through the tooling.

I will reinstate Kees's account so he can resume his work.

I want to convert all lossless files to lossy, preferably before uploading them

so it’s not exactly a mirror, right?

here’s an idea:

• A - the source containing lossless files
• B - the local storage of lossy files
• C - a remote mirror of B

With that, you can do:

• A -> B: a systemd service that makes this conversion.
• B -> C: git or syncthing to mirror and/or version control.

This uses more storage than you probably intended to (lossy files are also stored locally), but it’s a mirror.

It seems pcm-memory can do it on Intel CPUs and uProf for AMD.

Other than these I’ve mostly seen benchmarking and profiling tools (like perf) but I guess these are not what you’re looking for.

Is that for a specific process or the system?

If your banking app has a biometrics lock, it doesn’t mean the bank has your biometric data. That’s not how this works.

yeah, it’s stored locally. This is just FUD cause “big corpo bad”.

they only had this mirror

https://github.com/mozilla/gecko-dev/

but it seems they were using mercurial at https://hg-edge.mozilla.org/

Forget the dependency, I don’t want another language in my code.

heh

Cool, I did it with my git config a couple weeks ago, I didn’t know you could do it with ssh too.

for those interested:

[include]
path = ~/.config/git/shared.ini
path = ~/.config/git/dev-machine.ini
path = ~/.config/git/aliases.ini
path = ~/.config/git/self.ini

yeah, I do use Bitwarden, which has these things. But I store my TOTP codes on the phone to be separate from the passwords and… well, actually serve as multi-factor I suppose.

I loathe every time my work IAM forces me to sign in again, as it always asks for MFA. They use Okta and promote password managers, idk why we can’t enable passkeys to remove this hassle already.

Just pasting more info for those that were concerned, like me:

Issue. This was rolled back and only seemed to affect Windows.

(I don’t use Brave as a daily driver, but it’s my Chromium browser of choice when I need assess if a website is really broken, or if it’s just misbehaving on Firefox.)
