That’s the cool thing about git. You can just create a blank codeberg repo and then do:

git remote add codeberg <URL>
git push codeberg --mirror

Of course, this won’t include issues and other GitHub specific stuff, but it’s much more robust than most other tools.

If Linus had only ever created git, he’d still have his place high up in the programmer’s pantheon.

Calling your political opponents subhuman comes from the fascist playbook. I wouldn’t go there.

Investigators say guides used a range of methods to force helicopter evacuations, including faking medical emergencies and lacing food with large amounts of baking powder to stimulate gastric distress commonly associated with altitude sickness. Others were given medications with excessive amounts of water to trigger symptoms.

After trekkers reported nausea, dizziness or body aches, they were advised to descend and agree to costly emergency helicopter evacuations. Authorities said operators then used forged medical and flight documents to claim costs from international travel insurers.

Randy George is kind of an upgrade from curious George.

They’re not at all the same people. We don’t really have strong evidence of writing from the Nuragic civilisation, but the Etruscans left plenty of written evidence and their language was probably not even Indo European. Then there were invasions by the Gauls and the Latins, who built the Roman Empire, but they were taken over by Germanic peoples, who partially integrated. Waves and waves of people speaking different languages, with different religions and customs.

You say that modern English have always been there, but again, after the Celts got taken over by the Romans, there was a long period of Roman rule, with a lot of cultural and ethnic mixing. Then came the Saxons, again a people with completely different language and customs. This was a large mixing of populations and a huge shift in culture. Then there was an invasion of Vikings that was so significant that a huge part of east England was called the Danelaw, because it was under Danish control. You still see that in place names and surnames. Then in 1066 the Norman French came, again massively changing the culture, the language and the political structures.

It’s the same story all over Europe. Wave after wave of invasion, displacement and cultural shift and mixing.

Most countries have existed since before written time, evolving into what they are now.

I can’t see a sense in which this is true.

Before written time, none of the countries of Europe or Asia or Africa existed in anything remotely close to their current identity.
