favadi··on Proposed server purchase for GitLab.com
Gitlab package includes too many things! I remember Gitlab sponsors a guy to do proper packaging to include Gitlab in debian last year, not sure what is the status.
favadi··on My search for a MacBook Pro alternative

favadi··on Ask HN: Which laptop for external 4K monitor on Linux?
My friend is using a Dell XPS 13 2016 4K running Ubuntu 16.04 and have no big issue. Beware that while Ubuntu (Unity) itself support scaling and works fine with 4K, many applications (especially, the old ones) are unusable with HiDPI.

Most of Gitlab announcements went to front page. I guess because people actually cares about it, right?

The builtin adblocker is slower than uBlock last time I try. And we can't add custom list.
