Debugging CI pipelines is so annoying, why is there no better way than committing a bunch of dumb changes until it works?

Honestly, I'm starting to feel uneasy about the machines that I have booted Ventoy on.

In its current plan, the EU commission intends to cut €27 million in funding for Free Software. The article has a link to a questionnaire that you can fill out and express your opinion about the plan. I believe non-EU citizens can participate as well.
