"I said then, and I say now, that while there is a lower class, I am in it, and while there is a criminal element, I am of it, and while there is a soul in prison, I am not free."

"We can do whatever we want and if we break your shit that's your fault for relying on us" is cool when it's open source doing it, apparently.

Happy Pride Month. If you know a young person (age 13-26) in the US who is getting their access to queer library books restricted because of local small-minded policies or laws, please refer them to the Books Unbanned program where they can get digital access to banned or restricted books thanks to the cooperation of larger libraries in more open-minded locations.

It's a great program that more people should know about.

I don't see enough people talking about generative "ai" in terms of labor power, so i want to state unequivocally: if you are using generative "ai", you are scabbing.

you can tell this is AI slop, because there is not a single link to anything from that article to an original source confirming anything asserted in that article.

*always* check publications for citations back to original sources.

to be absolutely clear: alpine is *not* switching to systemd or implementing a 'systemd compatibility layer'.

I've said it before, but after tridge's post it's worth saying again. Outside of a few edge cases, if you volunteer your time in OSS, you owe me precisely fucking nothing. You can decide you're done whenever and just walk away.

What you can't do is use the influence and power you've accumulated through your volunteer work to do active harm. Volunteer work is not a get-out-of-jail-free card for acting maliciously.

oh, just not wanting train juniors

Hey, remember when Old Twitter rolled out NFT avatars and we all took turns dunking on the cryptobros who paid for that nonsense?

Simpler times. Good, simple fun.
