"Managing agents to achieve outcomes may sound unfulfilling to many"

No shit, man.

My father and his first wife married at 17, had their first child at 18. She (i.e. that first child) had her first child at 17, who in turn had her first child at 18. My father thus became grandfather at 35, great-grandfather at 53; and I became uncle at about 7, great-uncle at about 25. Kinda cool tbh.

Since that happens to the best of us, I envision writing a wrapper script around {n,}pfctl that asks for confirmation upon detecting that you're logged in via ssh through a specific port AND detecting that the new rules would block that port.

Still baffles me how many people are convinced that you can 'wipe properly/thoroughly/enough'. It's exactly for that reason that I avoid sitting down in public transportation. Anyone who either possesses the instinct of not wanting to smell like shit and/or has had the 'privilege' of cleaning someone else's butt (say, a small child or an adult in need of special care) knows that the words 'wiping' and 'hygiene' can only be used in the same phrase if there's also the words 'wet' and/or 'wash' and/or 'soap' in it. Otherwise...of course your f****g chair stinks.

Exactly. Only small businesses and individuals have to honour the GDPR, not them.

In Briar, it's only possible to send images - not any other file, as of this writing.

They have a very clear stance on not rushing releases, and focusing on security and stability rather than features, which is laudable, but on the flip side that means one must probably wait for months, if not years, for new features.

I still find it hard to believe just how few people even ask themselves the obvious : Provides services 'for free', but is one of the world's biggest companies. Where is the money coming from ?

If being a corporate hoe taught me anything, it's that you should NEVER sacrifice your health, including your mental health, for a company.

If you burn out, no colleague is going to care for you. If you fall ill, no boss is going to visit you. If you die, oh, you'll very much have someone from the company go to your funeral : they need to be sure you're indeed dead so that they can stop paying your salary.

Reminds me of IP over avian carriers ☺

Came into the thread just to say this. Very happy and thankful you mentioned it already. I think fossil is THE underrated vcs.

I'd like to mention https://chiselapp.com/, since OP's wish is, AFAICT, to have a service that's hosted elsewhere.

LFS (Linux From Scratch), though building a custom NetBSD or OpenBSD Kernel and making an ISO with custom packages/configuration is a lot easier.

You're speaking in the past tense. There are at least two more joke distros around which are active as of now: Justin Bieber Linux ('Biebian') and Rebecca Black OS...

Actually, the only way I've been able to make sense of what happened is thinking that he might have been interested in me, correctly sensed I'd never be, and didn't want to be hurt.
