@arstechnica it's funny to see this story get published so routinely as news.
Fun fact: developer of screenfetch used to hang out in #smxi #IRC and grab code for screen fetch from bash #inxi. No reason for 2 people to waste their time figuring out desktop ID I thought. Neofetch was new screenfetch but repeated core error: complex logic in bash. Many errors due to this. But clever. Demise predictable. Fastfetch massive codebase. Too hard to keep up with os/hw changes in C so future predictable.
@smxi I recently added GPU temperature sensors to conky. Very grateful for this great utility that smxi is of great help to us to configure our graphics cards. Thank you! π€
Starting slowmotion shutdown of #github #smxi repos, first step made last commit to active development branch inxi-perl, where #pinxi lives. The old file will remain for a while, so you can update using -U and get that, then you have to update -U again to be current. I'd been commiting to gh to keep pinxi current, no more.
Unraveling a code repo is a pain, but as now #googlecode and gh have taught, relying on proprietary code repos is just a bad idea, thanks @Codeberg for making this possible.
Migration of #smxi repos from #github to #codeberg.org are now completed. The #inxi migration was hard for their migration tool because the git data is very large and complicated, but after numerous tries, it finally got migrated.
I've now updated all the urls used, the self updaters, so that both github and codeberg versions will give users files that have the right data.
I'll probably stop mirroring at end of 2023, the github tokens last 90 days, which should be enough.
