After my recent playing around with #Copilot, I thought I'd take a look at my Github billing report to see how much I'd used. I have, this month, used US$5.80 worth of Copilot ... and US$870 of actions. Most of those computrons got burned when #Dependabot pushed branches and then when it created pull requests so that it could whine at me about point releases of stuff like #CrossPlatformActions (https://github.com/cross-platform-actions/action). 1/n

    Therefore, because I care about polar bears and poor people, I have turned down the frequency with which dependabot whines. It will now do so only quarterly instead of every month. And I've updated all my actions to only run when the action is updated in a push or when specifically triggered by me deliberately updating another file. 2/n
