Apparently Lapce has remote development as its core feature. But I only (re?)learned of it today..

How didn't tramp work out for you?

A great git integration can work well in an editor. I use Magit in Emacs, which is probably as full-featured Git-client as there can be. Granted, for operations such as cherry-picking or rebasing on top of a branch or git reset I most often use the command line (but Magit for interactive rebase).

But editor support for version management can give other benefits as well, for example visually showing which lines are different from the latest version, easy access to file history, easy access to line-based history data (blame), jumping to versions based on that data, etc.

As I understand it vscode support for Git is so basic that it's easy to understand why one would not see any benefits in it.

It still maintains their market position, which has value. For example, you might not visit other sites because they don't have the content you want (and the content stays on YT because they have the viewers), or you might even share YT links to other people.

Yes, just mount to /mnt/videos and symlink that as needed.

I guess there are some benefits in mounting directly to $HOME, though, such as find/fd work "as expected", and also permissions will be limited automatically per the $HOME permissions (but those can be adjusted manually).

For finding files I use plocate, though, so I wouldn't get that marginal benefit from mounting below $HOME.

If you want to have multi-host redundant storage at home (via e.g. minio or ceph), S3 is a pretty good protocol to provide it.

S3 is nice in the way it's not a file system so it can have relaxed semantics, while also providing secure access to individual files over HTTPS via URL signing.

Some people seem to be stuck in the idea that S3 means cloud hosting. Not sure if that was your view, but it's worth spelling out sometimes.

Papermerge version 2.0, version 2.1 and version 3.0 are entirely different and incompatible applications.

That doesn't exactly inspire confidence in the future versions of this application, given in particular the use case of long-term document archival :).

I suppose it's the easiest way to try it out.

I wouldn't use it long-term, because you don't want Godot to update without you knowing, if there's something that needs to be changed due to an update. I bet a few people noticed the update from 3.x to 4.x..

I've read it also doesn't come with the C# support, so that's one reason not to use Steam for it if you're interested in testing that side.

Admins can and do use email server block lists, though, so maybe that's a great example.

I suppose you're right--for now. But at some point Lemmy etc will grow large enough to make manual blocking infeasible. Just how much effort does it take to start a new instance even today?

Is there information about this situation with Mali government about ml domains? I cannot find anything about it.

Though apparently some ml domain receives a lot of accidental US military emails :).

I doubt there would be a measureable benefit: after all, the kernel is already compiled without 32-bit support, and the code related to it just doesnt exist in the resulting binary. I assume there could be some small exceptions, though, like choosing to do something in a certain way so that the same approach will also work for 32-bit, and opting for another approach would perform better in 64-bit. That's just a guess, though.

It's mostly about maintenance load.

Btw, with PAE the host can have more than 4 GB of memory, so the limit would only apply to individual processes. Still quite feasible to use that kind of system even in the modern day--even if the browser can sometimes become quite large.. And then there are of course the numerous embedded applications.

One other thing is that you can bulk create your own instances, and that's a lot more effort to defederate. People could be creating those instances right now and just start using them after a year; at least they have incurred some costs during that..

I believe abuse management in openly federated systems (e.g. Lemmy, Mastodon, Matrix) is still an unsolved problem. I doubt good solutions will arrive before they become popular enough to attract commercial spammers.
