the least I've seen was 6 months. If I had to change passwords every 90 days I'd spam them with articles showing this is idiotic every month.

some forks have outdated commits, the latest one recorded by wayback machine last month is e935959d2f9cc642bcbb5e7759b2b1e7196b0947, which can still be found in a few repos:

https://github.com/search?q=e935959d2f9cc642bcbb5e7759b2b1e7196b0947&type=commits

btw, the mirror linked in the github conversation is also out of date in relation to the original repo.

I briefly checked that the other day and it doesn't seem to be the case. To my knowledge, the GNSS hardware will gather info on all available (supported + reachable) constellations to give the best location estimate.

As such, we have to conclude that Shakespeare himself inadvertently provided the answer as to whether monkey labour could meaningfully be a replacement for human endeavour as a source of scholarship or creativity. To quote Hamlet, Act 3, Scene 3, Line 87: “No”.

Calm down, he was answering "how fast could we get there". It was never meant to be a realistic time frame.
