NASA actually made a pretty informative page about it[1], with some simulation of sound on Mars, compared to Earth. Hopefully we won't need the simulation much longer!

I've made a blog post about this some time ago[1]!

Definitely not exhaustive as this thread though.

Looks awesome!

Just so you know, there's this[1] firefox addon that always force the redirection to old.reddit.com. I imagine there's a similar thing for chrome.

You don't even have to do that.

On reddit, go to your preferences. Down under beta test you'll find "Use the redesign as my default experience"

Disable it.

The problem is that reddit randomly ignores this and switches back to the redesign on a whim.

Interesting. It has never failed for me since turning it on soon after the redesign landed.

How does one submit a new package to https://cppget.org? I can find a 'Submit' button or documentation about this.

Good question. Currently you will need to email a git repository URL and tag you want published (e.g., https://git.build2.org/hello/libhello.git#v1.0.0) and we will publish it for you (or you can provide a package archive if you prefer).

For the next version we plan to implement a CI/CD bot which will poll your git repository for tagged versions and automatically test and publish them to cppget.org (there will be some sort of a control file that you will be able to use to specify which tags should be published where, etc).

Oh

Thanks for your work on this! That sounds like a great direction for future development. I hope that you are able to make this work out!

I think a fork is just an internal branch on the original repositoriy for the Github Servers. From a data / sys admin point of view, it makes sense, since a hard-copy of a repository (and all the git objects with it) is just generally useless.

I would guess that it's stored and dealt with using a basic "copy on write" strategy. It's functionally a copy, which is all that usually matters. This may have been an oversight.

It's a bit more complex than that actually. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ZNKR9wFe8o

Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if this was an oversight as well. I can't imagine that GitHub would delete the git blobs from their servers, even if you stop paying (harddrives are cheap!).

You should add a previous.

I think you're right. From the documentation [1]:

  set 0 to stop ksmd from running but keep merged pages,
  set 1 to run ksmd e.g. "echo 1 > /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/run",
  set 2 to stop ksmd and unmerge all pages currently merged,
      but leave mergeable areas registered for next run
  Default: 0 (must be changed to 1 to activate KSM,
             except if CONFIG_SYSFS is disabled)

I use calcurse[1] for this. It handle pretty much every "calendar" files out there
