Good for you, you should feel that good! That's a bit of a handful...

Rarely. All too often, I have to deal with "stuff" that programmers wrote with, at best, the context that they are writing it for other programmers. It's a rare thing when a programmer thinks at a higher level: yes, this is for other programmers but I should think of them as users and see how I can make their life as easy as possible.
So mostly what amazes me is that I haven't ditched this career and become an organic farmer.
Regardless, congratulations! And we all knew already you were a programming God.

That's my normal; stuff refuses to install. Missing packages and such.
You make fun of it, but it is our daily experience.

Hey, I'm in the same business. If I didn't keep a sense of humour about these things, I'd be even crazier than I am now. :demented grin:

I don't need humor, I'm paid as an employee. I just go to the manager and go like "you not gonna like this, but.."
Not my problem, never was, and not paid to.

Now don't take this the wrong way, but it reminds me of a recommendation I make (on occasion) to wit:
"If you're going to bang your head on the wall, do it in the corner of the room. It's twice as effective and you can finish sooner."
There may be some relevance. Or not.

Anilah - Warrior[^]
Sorry for being late, had a busy day.
Apologies to my fans who can't wait for a new SOTW, love you guys (even the haters)! 
This song was actually recommended to me three weeks ago, in the SOTW thread, by @Member-6430.
It's with Einar Selvik who is a black metal musician who "grew up", I guess.
You may now know Einar Selvik from Wardruna, a Nordic folk band (although that label does not do them justice).
And that's what Anilah is throwing at us too, folk and ambient, but I also hear some heavier doom-inspired passages.
All in all it's a great mixture of beauty and heavy, or should I say intensity!
From her Bandcamp page: "Anilah is the solo project from vocalist and composer Dréa Drury, a musician based in the Selkirk Mountains of Western Canada."
So she's Canadian too, which makes it all the more fitting that I'd recommend her here

Wardruna isn't a solo project, but an actual band and, yes, they're great.
Seen them live a couple of years ago, great show
I like the original Helvegen better by the way, I like the intensity of the music.
And it sounds more like Anilah too

Nice (after the first minute or so)! It says he did the video as well? Holy crap, how many video cards did he burn up?

I love the contrast between the first two minutes and what starts at 1:57 
I think he has a video for every track he ever made and he releases them mainly on YouTube.
Quite annoying as I was looking for an album on Spotify, but this song isn't even on there

Yeah, it's a great idea but I won't touch it. The last time I tried it, the time it took to load a "Hello World" page was so long that that alone made it unacceptable.

That pun a-parent-ly goes farther than most to bring some sonshine to this place. It also adolesecent on the effects of aging.

Has anyone ever set up a local git repository?
Specifically, one that can be connected to not only locally, but remotely as well.
I'm thinking of using a Raspberry Pi 4 with a connected 500gb SSD (that should be plenty pig enough I think).
I don't want to use GitHub because they've been hacked a couple of times (unless someone here thinks it's secure enough).
I'm concerned with the amount of hassle required to install git locally, so I'm hesitant.
