GitLab is slower for me than that React GH app. Why would I move to GitLab?

Was this a local/on prem version of GL or the hosted web version?

My previous org had an on prem version hosted on a local VM. It was extremely fast, we setup another VM for the runners, and one for storing all the docker containers. The thing I’ve seen people do it use the VM they put their gitlab instance on for everything and ends up bogging things down quite a bit.


Since when the city one lives in is mentioned in the birth certificate?

It was only one example they gave, and they accept multiple different types of ID; a driver's license or national ID card being other likely ones, and DLs do say where you live.

None of those documents reliably state my city of residence. At best they document where I once lived, but not even that is guaranteed.

Not updating your DL after changing your address is a crime* in all US states. I'm not as familiar with law elsewhere, but would be surprised if that's not true most other places.

*There are exceptions for active duty military personal and other limited exceptions.


It is a law but rarely enforced, also some places like Washington are primarily digital meaning you update your DL address online but they don’t print a new ID unless you request it or your DL is expired

That's pathetic. It would mean you can't live anywhere without a street address, such as a camp site or a ship. You also can't be a nomad.

So much for "land of the free".


Unless you’re wild camping, campsites have addresses. So do marinas where a ship would need to be docked more or less regularly to establish residency.

As for being a nomad, you don’t need a driver’s license or any kind of ID to wander if you’re willing to sleep rough. If you want to drive on public roadways though, you better have a primary address where the courts can send someone if you kill someone in a traffic accident and bail.


Docking is expensive, so no. It's also only needed once per 5 years or so for maintenance.

Government fining you a ticket doesn't mean your address has to be on the drivers license. They could register the number plate to an SSN for instance.


Did you skip my last sentence? A traffic ticket is not the worst thing you can do in an automobile. And not everyone eligible for a drivers license will have an SSN.

Bailing from a traffic incident is a crime itself. Good luck getting away with that.

And why would someone not get their SSN if they're old enough to drive?

For most situations where you don't have a permanent address, your address is either the place where you receive mail or the courthouse.

And if you don't have a place to receive mail?

Receiving mail is a requirement for participating in the legal system, which is a requirement for citizens.

Laws of the government can't override laws of physics. If you don't have a place where you can receive mail, do they just arrest you or what? Do they assign a PO box to you?

If you fail to comply with legally delivered court messages (to your registered mail address), then yes the police is going to fetch you.

In some places in the U.S. it is (or at least was until recently) illegal to be healthy and unemployed.

America is one of the least free countries — they think they're free because the guns=free principle is drilled into them since birth, but it's a lie.

You are legally required to update those within 10 days of moving.

It's pretty standard in a lot of Europe, one is required to update ones license with each change of address (although many people don't).

Along with such weird (to us) things as applying for an exit visa from your current town when you want to move to a new town...


Which parts of Europe have a town of where the person lives on their driving license? And what do you mean by “us”?

UK driver's licence has my full home address on it. Come to think of it I think my Polish one used to as well.

My Spanish identity card has my full address. Not sure if the DNI does as well, or only the foreign resident version.

> And what do you mean by “us”?

US folks are pretty used to being able to up and drive across the country with a suitcase, without filing any paperwork (at least till the taxman comes knocking next April)


Have to get your vehicle registered in your new state as well (if you own one) as well as your driver’s license. God help you if your vehicle is towed and your license/vehicle is not registered in the current state. Absolute mess.

I ask you about drivers license, you tell me about the national ID.

You did not ask about driver's licenses. You asked about "document I have on me".

Many people in many countries carry their national ID card in instances where Americans would carry their driver's license.

(And, to be clear, if you are American and drive, your driver's license contains your address.)


Germany has the full address the ID card and the issuing office (containing the city) on both the driving license. They are also digital so who knows what they also store on them.

Australia and UK goes the full distance. Your full address: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Driver%27s_licences_in_Austral...

You must have read headings only. It’s a useless slop past hello world. Lots of slop.

You are all immigrants there. You all came on boats, you or your ancestors. Killed almost all natives and claim you’re the legal ones.

> then you have no right to condemn us.

You should read the constitution.


Why would I condemn people who were wiped by your ancestors? They were the locals, you’re just… temporary. You don’t even care for the land!

There is no single "the locals", every tribe represented a different polity. They warred with each other constantly and conquered and took over land all the time. There is no part of the continent that is held by the original human that arrived here first. Every part has been conquered and reconquered many times. The Europeans are just the latest conquerors. Except in the cases where they literally bought the land. Which also happened.

Sure. It still doesn’t change the fact that their ancestors performed a genocide on the natives.

LMFAO LMFAO. EXACTLY AS I HAD PREDICTED. I bet from his overdramatic exaggerations about downvotes meaning "censorship" a situation whre literally no mod powers were invoked, that I bet this idiots psychotic hallucinations probably drama queen and exaggerate in his imagination travel and marriage as violent murderous genocide too. I was absolutely on point!

This hikkerl idiot really thinks downvotes are "censorship" and immigration is murderous genocide lmfao. Just how hilariously fucked in the head this hikkerl entity you are trying to talk to is lmfao.

It turns out they were temporary too, as they were not able to defend their lands. Now we are the locals.

Again, unless you are going to condemn them for any attempt made in their defence, then you can't condemn us. Be consistent, else it's just plain racism.

Side note: if you think ICE is brutal you should read what early European settlers had to endure...


> Side note: if you think ICE is brutal you should read what early European settlers had to endure...

Or what those settlers made others endure?


Again, if you're going to condemn Europeans for any actions committed in the course of colonisation and support the natives' right to violent defence of their territory, then you must also grant the current custodians of the territory the right to violent defence against illegal immigrants whose heinous crimes against our people make for often-shocking headlines.

Yes, and just like we will eventually be displaced (violently or not) by new arrivals as well, since "might makes right," correct?

It's just how it goes: white settlers kick brown (Indian descended with some European blood) Mexicans off their land, later brown Mexican descendants jump border into the USA to get that land back, white settler descendants kick them away again but demographics means those white settler descendants are going to get displaced one way or the other.

The math of growth curves doesn't lie. Trump is just a last racist hurrah for what was and what isn't meant to be anylonger.

I don't see what violence gets them, just people die and the conclusion will still be the same.

I love immigrants and don't care if my skin color is no longer common, heck I experienced this already when spending 9 years in China.

200-300 years from now we all would have mixed up anyways, we are all humans afterall and who is to say that certain humans have the right to prosperity while others don't based ancestry (because their claim morally is much stronger than ours!).


If the nazism didn't already make it clear what a complete fucking retard his kind is, look at this interaction:

Traitors first. Shame on you.

Hikkerl, your kind are hilarious fucking retards. You are so fucked in the head you think people saying you are a retard is censorship and intermarriage is violent murderous genocide. Who is murdering white people? No wonder with such utterly fucked in the head stupidity and psychotic mental retardation your fucked up kind are attracted to made up completely imaginary crap. Honestly I think your kind is so hilariously brainfucked you should be kept in pens for your own good. You are fine with it since you prefer antidemocratic systems. Answer or fuck off from here.

Fully supported, until they sell it to someone.

I mean, Anthropic now own it

There's no "one country making lithography machines". The mirrors come from Germany already. Other parts from about 160 other countries around the world. The EUV tech itself is an American invention and was picked up by ASML. That is why USA has the say in who gets it.

> How do you expect those people footing most of the bill to give up their status quo and voluntarily sign up for something like this?

If you do not see how someone like US or China can play 27 individual countries and divide Europe by propping one nation and discrediting another, for example recent Trump admin meddling with Poland, or Musk fiddling with German and Spanish government, then it's going to be difficult having this discussion with you.

Another aspect... Spain stopped being a dictatorship 51 years ago, half of the continent was under Soviet influence until something like 35 years ago, communist for that matter. The continent has been consolidated over the last half a century. Painting EU as the root of all evil is not a way forward.


It's also a little bit more prevalent since after 5 or 6 comments you get soft-banned for hours, cannot have a decent discussion here anymore.

Almost, still the wrong website.

I think they just meant to point out the petition was available in several languages and tsak was just using one such English versioned link, not to imply that using the main German link also solves mschild's notes.

I.e. it's one thing for a petition to not be on an official government platform/process but it's a completely different type of claim to say it's not even in the country's language when it, of course, is.


I like my pre-receive hooks.
