I mean, I can explain Sol vs Luna. Sol is the sun, it's huge. Luna is a moon, it's small. Terra is earth, in-between.

Re:The GitHub wiki is an anti-pattern (2022) on Wednesday September 23, 2026 @10:43AM (#49816952)
https://github-wiki-see.page/

I've been trying for years to get the contents indexed, accessible to search engines or even AI. When I started, no wiki was ever indexed but it seems GitHub backed off a bit since then. Still, there's a bunch that is still not indexed for various reasons with valuable data in them.

I do agree, most users should look into docs instead.

It also needs to be non publically editable.

In other words, spiritually not a wiki.

Am I crazy or did the OP swap the contents of the posts around accidentally?

It's interesting to see there are text differences between the audio and the blog post. At the point where it vocalizes unlimited downloads by Plus users, the text says 400. I wonder if that's hallucination or a post-music-generation edit.

Re:Run macOS Software on Linux on Monday August 31, 2026 @08:32PM (#49516517)
While the productivity apps are mentioned in the other comments of this reply, games are another reason. There are far more games on Windows to port and handle than macOS games. And in that case, you got a financial desire in the form of Valve and its Steam store. macOS games tend to be ports from Windows and are usually less featureful.

Would HyperV and Virtualization Based Security be that take? I suppose it’s taken very far on Xbox and VBS is enabled by default on most Windows systems.

Why not a talk/demo video? Like Google Wave. Yeah I know that's probably not the best ~~success~~ example but it was a hell of a demo.

I gotta ask but is Forgejo a barely loading forge? GitHub, GitLab being a pig sure but Forgejo seem pretty snappy.
It's a running a fork (codeberg specific) of a fork of gitea called forgejo (https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo) so it's not surprising. The people behind it were a bit miffed at Gitea doing some questionable commercial endeavors in their view and also not dog-fooding Gitea for Gitea.
codeberg

I had a repo with more than a dozen forks banned on GitHub for some unclear TOS violations. Ticket has been sitting for a week plus now, asking for clarification and guidance.

So, it lives in codeberg now. https://codeberg.org/nelsonjchen/op-replay-clipper

For those not in the know, a lot of people used API keys for stuff like Google Maps and stuff.

And they didn't know it was also enabled for Gemini stuff.

Looks like they are looking into writing this up.

e.g. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47791871

I think there are some who would probably argue the opposite about the users of news.ycombinator.com . It's an explanation for the $ in M$.
Ah I should have been more specific and saying normal Tor users.
This is great to hear. I wish the original article was more clear on that instead of a vague "they'll get to it" which has bad connotations.
Are you really not sure? I'm pretty darn sure a lot of "normal" people don't know how to configure their systems to use a SOCKS proxy to use Tor.
I would imagine most users of Tor are using Tor Browser. I am reading there was a responsible disclosure to Mozilla but is it me or did that section leave out when the Tor Project planned to respond or release a fixed Tor Browser? Do they like keep very close or is there a large lag?
