    The FSF defines freedom as the four freedoms. Copyleft is about preserving those four freedoms. Copyleft is still free software in terms of the four freedoms. Sure, you could take …

    Exactly. However I see now that there's an Emacs workaround... maybe I'll try that some time.

    It's also easy to have multiple versions installed using nix.

    > Remember, git came before github. That's exactly my point. Using a "request-pull" instead of a "pull-request" will probably mean you can do this git-lfs thing with it. My underst…

    Except that's not a "pull request".

    There were no big flaws in Bayern's game that day. Arsenal sat deep specifically to shut down what muller and lewandowski could do, but I wouldn't call that exploiting. In fact Ars…

    If by football philosophy you mean "the thing about Arsenal is...", skc got it right I think because 15 years ago he was definitely considered 'progressive' or 'modern'. But now I …

    What? Couching is not all scouting... no one's denying that Wenger is always on the look out for young prospects. But Wenger is a sort of 'old fashioned' coach. He prefers focusing…

    Sweet! I never bothered to check how to do it on the cli, and instead of being interactive, I just assumed you would have to reference the hunks by line number or something. Naive …

    With magit, it's easy to only stage individual 'hunks' so that you can have only the relevant parts of a file staged. And so this problem goes away. I also imagine it's easy to do …

    I'm not sure cabal can really be considered a package manager as the article here states [1]. Stack helps, but I think just using a dedicated package manager to manage haskell thin…

    Sorry for the late reply. I found it, I got the method from this blog post [1] initally. Also see [2]. However, I'm sad to say that when I tried this again rn, it didn't work anymo…

    I prefer maim [1] to scrot, you should maybe check it out if you didn't already know about it? [1]: https://github.com/naelstrof/maim

    One of the dealbreakers for me with Kallithea at this point of time though is the lack of an issue tracker. I think their main reason for not having it was that they don't want to …

    Have you heard of kallithea [1]? Not sure if it be what you want though because it also supports mercurial (and uses it for its development). But iirc, it's written in python. [1]:…

    Right, sorry. I still thought you were talking about git after the first line, at least that's how I read it. Misunderstanding, my bad.
