Cullen Hoback directed another HBO miniseries documentary about QAnon. He's not a Q weirdo himself.

It is, in fact, a paid theme in Microsoft's Solitaire collection for mobile.

On this same train of thought: there's also git sparse-checkout which uses the skip-worktree bit under the hood, and may have an easier interface. I'm not sure though, I haven't used it yet.

I haven't seen git update-index --skip-worktree mentioned yet. You can read about the motivation for this feature in the git scm docs.

I have used it in the past when a professor wanted us to clone repos for assignments that included some opinionated settings for VSCode that I didn't want to use. Skipping the work tree for that directory allowed me to change or delete the config files without git complaining every time I pushed or pulled or whatever, and the changes I made remained local.

You could set up a couple git aliases to "freeze" and "thaw" your config files on the second drive.

I'm a baby dev trying to collect some brain wrinkles. Can you expand that last point? What's the downside of client side decorations? What's a better alternative?

Maybe. Maybe knot.

The point is that there is now a credible fear that if Biden does not drop out, Trump wins.

Replacing the candidate at the top of the ticket this late is a hail Mary, but it could bring unenthusiastic voters back into the Democratic tent.

I didn't realize HTC was back in the phone business.

I thought they sold off their mobile assets to Google in order to chase VR and crypto hype cycles.

It's this frontend that makes Lemmy look like old Reddit.
