For anyone wondering if real piss is involved, this is from the Wiki:

There is a misconception that century eggs are prepared by soaking eggs in horse urine, but this is not true. In Thai and Lao, the common word for century egg translates to “horse urine egg”, due to this misconception or due to the eggs’ ammonia odor:

Thai: ไข่เยี่ยวม้า [kʰàj jîaw máː] (RTGS: khai yiao ma)

Lao: ໄຂ່ຍ່ຽວມ້າ [kʰāj ɲīaw mâː]

And that is the statement where I have to say that we must agree to disagree. I would find it a shame if the Fediverse just became Reddit 2.0.

Frankly I don’t know of any software company using Github Enterprise on-prem …

Self-hosted does not automatically mean on-prem. Most companies will not have their own server racks on site, but will either rent them or, most likely, use their own managed hyperscaler cloud. Github Enterprise Cloud, on the other hand, always runs on Azure and is managed by Microsoft.

What vibes do you think I’m going off?

What I meant was that you read the comments, identified inconsistencies from your point of view, and then responded in a confrontational manner without including the whole context.

You do have some good points. But instead of opposing everything that has been said, you could have differentiated much better.

For example:

• Public repositories on github.com are definitely used for AI training
• Private repositories on github.com are suspected of being used for training
• Github Enterprise Cloud is probably contractually protected
• Github Enterprise Server is the most secure of all options due to contracts and self-hosting (and therefore the only valid best option for enterprises with proprietary code)

All of the responses are saying that Github reads all code.

The first comment explicitly mentions “hosted on GitHub”, which at least excludes GitHub Enterprise Server, which is self-hosted.

The article is about an open source project that, by definition, uses public repositories.

Github public and Github enterprise are products of the same organisation.

Coming from someone who tells others that they first need to deal with “adult life”, I find this statement surprising. I work for an international company and manage several Github orgas with hundreds of repos. Whether the code is stored on github.com or on our own Github Enterprise server is highly relevant and makes a huge difference.

Why are you referring all your answers to GitHub Enterprise and corporate contracts? Nobody here is talking about that, as the news is about an open source project. Public GitHub and GitHub Enterprise are fundamentally different.

You accuse others of responding based solely on “vibes,” but you do exactly the same thing in the opposite direction. And yet, of all people, you’re saying we don’t act like adults.

Why? Isn’t he a comedian?

I also installed it on two machines now and really like it. But I have exactly the same freezing issues. I already increased my zram swap to 8GB (having 32GB RAM), but long running idle games still freeze the whole system after a while. Could be a memory leak. I also tried to tweak the config so that applications are automatically closed when on low RAM, but that still didn’t help yet.

Sorry, that wasn’t meant to sound so accusatory. I guess I (and probably a lot of other downvoters) are just very frustrated because your assumption doesn’t hold true, at least for Germany. I’m very envious of the Internet infrastructure that has been built in Latvia and Romania, for example. I would like to see the same here, but the government already considers 50 MBit DSL to be progressive.

That’s a bold claim. Do you have some official figures to back that up? Where I live, I don’t know of anyone with truly unlimited mobile internet.

The cheaper unlimited tariffs cost around €30, but have at least one of the following restrictions:

• Speed limit after x volume used
• Poor network coverage
• <15MBit/s speed
• Significantly increased costs after 2 years of contract term
• Cancellation by provider if consumption is too high
• only a few Gb at full speed included in EU roaming

Genuine unlimited contracts with stable network coverage and 300 Mbit/s usually cost around €80-100 per month here. And unlimited EU roaming is still not included by default.

I had the same experience with Ubuntu many years ago. And I can’t speak for Pop!_OS since I never used it. Most developers only provide commands for Ubuntu, Debian or Fedora on their websites. So they don’t work all the time in derived distros.

At least in Bazzite there is an “App Store” called Bazaar, containing many popular apps as flatpaks --> 1 click install. I generally like using the command line, but it was not necessary at all so far.

It’s so much easier than I had anticipated. Funnily enough, the most complicated thing was organizing a 16Gb USB stick to boot because I only had 20 year old ones with 4Gb. On a newly purchased bare AMD PC, I was able to set everything up after work and play games with my buddies the same evening.

I opted for Bazzite and everything ran right out of the box without any additional hardware drivers: gaming mouse, wifi, wireless PS4 controller, printer, NAS, Android phone. The game libraries from Steam, Epic, gog etc. can all be easily connected via Lutris and so far all the games I’ve tried have run. For programs that are only offered for other distributions, I have installed BoxBuddy, where you can create Distroboxes. For most Windows native programs Wine just works.

I did the same this month. My hardware wasn’t supported by Win11, so I installed Bazzite. It works so smoothly that I’ve already installed it on another PC and will do so on every PC in my household. I’ve been able to run every single game so far, whether they were from Steam, Ubisoft Connect, GOG, Battle.net or the EA app. I had no idea we were at this point already.

Funnily enough, there is no single word for this in German of all languages. You just say “heat something up in the microwave”. The standard verb form would be “mikrowellieren”, but I’ve never heard anyone say that.

Ok, then I understand. In my household we sometimes need 4 eggs for scrambled eggs or pancakes a week. And I never do the floating test, I just pay attention to how the egg smells.

How long did you keep the eggs for? I’ve never had one go bad in my entire life. Where I live, eggs can be bought in boxes of 6, 8 or 10.

That’s already been reversed: DHL lifts suspension of high-value deliveries to US

Exactly! Bicycle pedals have a left-hand thread on the left-hand side and “normal” threads on the right-hand side.

In the plumbing sector, left-hand threads are used whenever two pipe ends need to be connected that cannot be rotated. The connector is then equipped with a left-hand and right-hand thread and can therefore easily be screwed between them.

So it’s not just typical for Nordic countries, but depends on the application.

VPNs aren’t working unfortunately, at least if you’re not logged in. They completely block the site when you’re trying to access reddit via VPN. This is a VPN related forum where this is discussed.

20 years ago, I wanted to jump onto a concrete table tennis table in the school playground from a standing position with both feet at the same time. I didn’t make it and hit my shin up to the bone.

After it was stitched up, it became badly infected weeks later and I had to have another operation while on vacation.

Now I have a 1 inch scar directly on the shin bone which hurts a lot every time I hit it.
