"We are out of money to support Ukraine in this fight", says the director of the Office of Management and Budget in a letter to leaders of the US congress.

This is where we are: Ukraine could face serious setbacks β€” not because they make bad decisions, but because The Republican party has helped Putin turn Ukraine into a US political fight.

Shame on the Speaker of the House Mike Johnson who is using the freedom of 44 million people as a political bargaining chip.

Time for some annual holiday artsing!

I'm still struggling with convincing-looking beards, which is why I'll keep doing them. :)

Friends, if you follow me you probably understand why is important and maybe also are a @conservancy Sustainer. Part of the reason we are able to do so much (GPL enforcement! @outreachy FOSS advocacy! Fiscal sponsorship!) is because we spend our time actually doing the work, and little time on fundraising and marketing. If you're not a Sustainer, would you become one now? If you are, can you ask a friend to sign up? <3

@raggi You can use our web relay to submit it. Check out https://b4.docs.kernel.org/en/latest/contributor/overview.html . Very soon we'll integrate other mechanisms to submit patches, like Github pull request.

Yes, you heard it right, we're moving away from patches sent via email.

The fax number you should use from now on is 1-900-555-1212.

@luis_in_brief that's how you become a citizen of the Klingon Empire. You have to kill an existing citizen in honourable combat before you can take his place.

Me: (clicks "heart" on a post)
Poster: Do you wish me a good morning, or mean that it is a good morning whether I want it or not; or that you feel good this morning; or that it is a morning to be good on?

I was involved with Radicle back when it was just starting out, but bowed out when the project started smelling strongly of crypto-token BS.

Thankfully, it would appear that they have abandoned that, so perhaps it's time to take another long look at Radicle as a distributed git forge platform, especially now that it supports issues and patch reviews.

It's true, it happened, and it felt super good. πŸ₯Ή
