berryton··on SSH commit verification now supported
Nice! It is easier for me to have multiple SSH keys backed by my Yubikey than GPG keys (only 1 GPG key per Yubikey).
berryton··on Using unwrap() in Rust is okay
The Rust book has a small discussion about his in chapter 9.3 (https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/ch09-03-to-panic-or-not-to-pa...).

I think it is good to have some references (the blog post and the book) for when the horde comes after you.

berryton··on Gitlab U-turns on deleting dormant projects after backlash
This is the right mindset.

Instead of arguing "we need to cut costs", why don't they work on an entry-level paid tier? Seriously, it is like they're not even trying to compete with GH at this level.

Since some comments are talking about alternatives, I'll leave this here: https://github.com/theonedev/onedev

I found out about it on a previous HN thread.

It can do automation, one of the missing points from Gitea.

berryton··on Upcoming changes to user limits on Free tier of Gitlab SaaS
I was reviewing git hosting prices this week and Gitlab pricing really didn't make sense. The cheapest paid plan doesn't provide enough incentive to the majority of people who just want to host small/personal projects.
berryton··on Thank You, Valve
While I despise this kernel level bs, do you know how it is going to be implemented on Linux?

As far as I understand, it is coming via Proton/Wine, so these programs would need some kind of kernel level access as well (if they don't have it currently)? Or maybe they're just emulating Windows kernel calls or something like that. I mean, less intrusive (but also less effective) in a Linux system.

berryton··on New Covid variant BA.2 detected in at least 40 different countries
Just to make sure that no one reads this and believe in that "Great Barrington" claim, the numbers (as of today) are:

Total Signatures 920,477

Medical & Public Health Scientists 15,707

Medical practitioners 46,412

The rest fall under "concerned citizens" category.
