    It much depends: if trains are very frequent, train stations easy to reach and you only take one single train, that's one kind of experience. If there's few trains, you have every …

    I think that at this point, whenever someone tells us that we, or something we value, is important to them, we can safely consider it an insult, they are just giving the middle fin…

    You're right, I just opened a 1.2gb file (obtained with base64 -b 60) in fundamental mode, and it actually works decently enough. I tried the same with Sublime Text: it took a long…

    The only one important (imho of course) feature that GitHub has and self-hosted GitLab lacks is search across repositories [0]. Search inside a single repository is done via git. O…
