Uhm, REST/GraphQL APIs exist for this very purpose and are considerably faster.

Note, the AI still gets stuck in a loop near the end asking for more info, needing an email, then needing a phone number, and the gibber isn't that much faster than spoken word with the huge negative that no nearby human can understand it to check that what it's automating is correct!

during the long learning curve, one is usually grossly underpaid and sometimes scammed and or cheated.

See, that's the issue on such sites. Posters want a whole (e.g. e-commerce) project done for $100 because, "it won't take long" and then challenge your quotes with "well, I can get someone in bum|f*ck|land to do it for $100...". A game I don't want to play.

And sticking around and building a rep for a year is difficult when such sites have lots of scammers and sock accounts actively challenging you to make you look bad and their other alt accounts look good.

Download clonezilla and make a backup of your drive to an external drive before installing. You will forget to backup something if you copy files manually and only realise long after it's been wiped from your drive.

Also, it's linux, try both and see what you're comfortable with. If your system is slowish, it'll still be usable.

Why did you switch from using Debian? You've gone from having a system you to know to griding to a halt. An obviously worse-off situation.

I remember using gitlab in its very early days before it had vc funding. It was a basic github clone. Then its memory usage doubled with every release needing more, I remember 4GB in one release from like 1GB previously. Once the VCs got on board, new basic poorly-coded features were added all the time to be a github clone to obviously appease them.

Eugh, ruby that it isn't easy to develop for and eugh it's sooo slow.

It's at the the point now, I think there's no decent open source VCS if your purposes are little-more than pushing, viewing code and basic CI.

To save people the time of not having to read it all to know how to do something so simple as to install it when it could just be made to install itself?

Arch users don't value their time.

Having a "great" understanding of how a Linux system is tied together is fine for the now, but in five years time, will be useless as things change so why not spend your time being productive in the now.

You're going to be horrified to discover the software versions the military use.

mentioning pointers, time sharing, endianess, word size, registers

I'm turned on! Don't stop!
