Yeh, there are workarounds for large & binary files.
Git-LFS stores a pointer to the file that is stored elsewhere.
So... you have a git repo of files that point to somewhere that stores the actual files.
Great if your graphics/assets pipeline or whatever stores the files somewhere, and your codebase uses those assets.
Not great as the primary system to replace google/microsoft drive.

Might as well just have/use something that stores the actual files.

    This has to be a joke.

    GitHub is owned by microsoft. So just use onedrive, a system actually designed for storing files.

    Git is terrible for binary files and karge files. So even if you self host a git repo, you are probably going to have a bad time.

    Reform UK’s Robert Jenrick said the UK was “going down the pan and our prime minister is faffing around tweaking parking tickets” – despite trying to implement the policy himself when he was a Conservative minister.

    Brilliant, honest, genuine and constructive criticism from the foreign interest UK party.

    I have no issues with the prime minister setting task forces up to deal with issues people encounter every day.
    Its not like that is all he is doing. Our government is - in fact - able to do more than 1 thing at once

    I consider aetheism to be more an absence of belief in gods.
    Its not that i believe there arent gods. Its that i have no belief in gods.
    The former being anti-god/anti-religion. And the later being anti-belief.
    Maybe like "not accidentally cutting yourself" and "not having a knife". Both lead to "not accidentally cutting yourself", but 1 involves a knife.

    Uniforms are good because it stops the whole "fashion clique" bullshit. Or at least MASIVELY curbs it.
    And I say that as someone that has spent time in the US public/free/commoner schools AND the UK public/free/commoner schools.

    School uniforms are a good thing.

    But "girls wear dresses" is the strange thing. It should be "dresses, shorts or trousers" with generic specifications for these (so no hot pants or yoga pants kinda idea). Same for the shirts, shoes, socks, tie.

    And school uniforms are obviously an underage thing. There might be 18 year olds still in high/secondary school, but that is a FRACTION compared to the underage people that have to wear school uniforms.

    I'm for the ban. It makes sense.

    Very interesting topic. Very astute observation, amazing organisation, and a fantastic debate to have.
    I think some sort of middle ground has to be reached. Define what the UK school uniform actually is (and make it open and accepting, review it often). And ban the whole "schoolgirl skirt" aesthetic in porn (black shoes, white/black socks, grey/black skirt, white collared shirt).

    I don't think governments have anything between illegal and legal. So they have to make it illegal and decide/hint/inform/decree/whatever how much it is pursued and prosecuted... which is how they greyscale it.

    There IS a "schoolgirl aesthetic". You know it when you see it.
    "School disco" is a common theme night at student clubs.

    What an interesting debate.
    I'm all for it: "school uniform" is primarily an underage thing.
    The current youth has raised this as a national (international?) debate, and they should be rewarded.
    I have no issues with this kind of porn being illegal, it will still be accessible for those that want/need it (everything is always accessible on the internet).
