"A. Pollock" (debian.org), had an idea for a very useful feature (thx, btw! 🌻️) for molly-guard: Prevent accidential shutdown of distributed and virtual #GNU #Linux PCs by #FQDN.
"F. Marier" (debian.org), confirmed merging it back upstream.
Meaning: **From /then on/ that use-case is solved. for all IT.**
For good. #NoNeedToUpdate ☮️ 🗿

An analysis of Audacity forks in 2024.
The main contributors to Audacity are Paul (5k), and James (2k, but stopped contributing after Muse Group).
The main contributor to Tenacity is 'generic-pers0n', and this account has apparently only begun commits after the fork. A daunting task!
My analysis is that Tenacity is "alive" but not "well". Since no Audacity contributors are active, this fork has an uphill battle!

@reduz has written a technically robust response to @SamPruden: https://gist.github.com/reduz/cb05fe96079e46785f08a79ec3b0ef21
Respectful and interesting follow-up conversation in the comments.
TLDR: Sams article focused by chance on a "pathological" example. Also, despite Sams original conclusion, large-scale performance upgrades are definitely possible, *without* dropping GDScript, and without rewriting the engine :)
