    From Parzival Wolfram@VERT/DUNGEON to All on Tue Nov 26 09:18:05 2019
    Now that GitHub is going to freeze all public open-source code, literally, next to the Global Seed Vault, maybe we should get ourselves in there? Network logs, collected files, art, etc.? They have a 100KB binary limit, but that can be easily negated via either b64 or just not touching them (as a lot of files up on BBS boards are under 100KB.)

    Thoughts?

    They are going to freeze it as in you cannot add any new code to it?

    No, as in, they're storing it in a underground complex in the same area as
    the infamous World Seed Bank. They're putting it there as a capsule of sorts for future generations.
