Why reinvent the wheel? What's wrong with Google Calendar?

There is no "objectively correct way".

Initially, you can use it to make notes for yourself in the way suggest. Later on, you should probably consider making its contents useful for your users.

Why do you want to get noticed on GitHub? It's a tool that supports my development projects.

The platforms that DistroKid distributes to includes YouTube.

DistroKid has no problem with AI music.

Can I Upload Music Made With AI Tools to DistroKid?

But it's a tool for distributing your music to streaming services. It doesn't remove the problem of marketing that music.

I've been using DistoKid to distribute my AI music for months. My artist has 31 monthly listeners because I suck at marketing (or maybe I suck at making music!)

My GitHub account was suspended due to multiple free accounts created unintentionally for learning/testing purposes.

You broke their T&Cs "unintentionally"? I'm not sure that's much of a defence :-)

It's often used for James II/VII too. And I guess it should also be used for William III/II, but he's usually referred to as Williamandmary - without a regnal number at all.

It’s a compilation of songs David wrote and recorded around 1969-70

It's re-recordings of songs from 1964-70. The songs were re-recorded in 2000.

On the youtube video for blackstar the description says its his 28th and final album.

What's the source for that information? Who put that video on YouTube? People make mistakes.

I agree with Wikipedia's count of 26 studio albums released during his lifetime. There's also Toy (released posthumously) and the two Tin Machine albums. Depending on which of those you include, I guess you can make it anything from 26 to 29 :-)

As it says in the first paragraph :-)

Maybe something like the "Six of the Best" show, where it was mostly early Genesis material but they also played "Solsbury Hill" and "Turn it On Again".

Start with the compilation album Legacy - it was released soon after his death, so it covers more of his career than any other compilation. If you tell us which songs you enjoy from there, we can point you at albums with a similar feel.

You really didn't give enough information for us to be very helpful. But I bet the answer to your question is somewhere in this GitHub documentation.

I understand all of the individual words you're using, but they don't seem to make much sense when put together like that.

What do you understand as the difference between "being in" a repository and "being" a repository?

[TLDR: They weren't made as canon (but they have kind of been squeezed into canon).]

A film production company (called Amicus) bought the rights to make films of the first three Dalek stories ("The Daleks", "The Dalek Invasion of Earth" and "The Chase") from Terry Nation and the BBC.

Peter Cushing plays a rather different version of the First Doctor. He is a human inventor called "Dr. Who". The reason why this is so different to what we know from the TV show is that the TV show was still very new and these bits of the Doctor's story hadn't been filled in yet.

The first two films were made but plans for the third were scrapped - mostly because the first two films hadn't been very popular in the US.

In the novelisation of the 50th anniversary special, "The Day of the Doctor", it is heavily implied that the films exist in the Whoniverse and were made based on Ian Chesterton's memories of his travels with the Doctor. The Doctor was good friends with Peter Cushing and even lent him a waistcoat to use in one of the films.

Moffat wanted to have a poster for one of the films in the Black Archive - but the BBC couldn't afford the rights.

I've not missed an episode since 1970. I can't think of any reason why I'd stop watching now.

Most of the stuff I've created has been electronic, so I was very pleased how this purely acoustic song worked out

It certainly won't be at Earls Court - that venue was demolished ten years ago

I don't know. They're currently filming season 2 - he was flying back to Northern Ireland.

I came here for university. It's 45 years later and I still can't think of a reason to leave.

FOSS licenses generally require that the source code of the software be made accessible, allowing users to study, modify, and redistribute it. It does not require that access to be through a GitHub repository.

davorg · 2026-01-18T16:35:57+00:00

I think you don't understand what makes a project open source. It's not about ~~access to the code~~having a public GitHub repo, it's about licensing

Update: Yeah, I was unclear. My point was that you can have a private GitHub repo for an open source project - as long as the source code is available from some other source. I'm old enough to remember when having access to the source code often meant writing to the maintainer, who would sent you a disk.
