Pro Tip: Take the time to acquire the taste for coconut. Halloween is right around the corner. You can eat all the Almond Joys you want from your kids candy stash (they definitely won't eat them). You can then impose the Dad Tax on top of that.

You start a project in 2012 and put it on Github (at some point in the projects history, I don't know when exactly). You keep working on the project off and on, and at some point someone forks your project. You then close down your project on Github and keep working on the project privately off and on for years. The person who forked the project decides to start working on things and releases a WIP preview build for people to play with. The version you've been working on is much further along than the forker's version. The forker did not reach out to you about taking on things, but they did credit you. Did the forker do anything wrong? Are you pissed off at them for any reason?

Looks like its time to dust off the Saturn. Princess Crown is probably the most requested Saturn translation right now. This is an early release, so there's probably some bugs and a lot of cleanup left to do. Still, happy to see English Saturn fans get some love. #retrogaming #gamestr

Alright Nostr, let's get some retrogaming badges out there in the wild. I doubt I'll get any hits on this one, but let's see what's out there. The first generation of video games refers to consoles and handhelds from around 1972 to 1983. It includes things like Atari's Pong, the Magnavox Odyssey and the Coleco Telstar. I don't have anything in my collection from this era, but if you do, drop a picture in the replies from your collection for a badge. We'll tackle the second generation in November. image #gamestr #retrogaming #videogames #gaming

When the Tracking Token Disrespector bot gets me, I do feel some shame, not going to lie.

I wish there was some more clarity on this. On one hand the Linux project is so massive that I suppose violating some sanction could seriously damage the project as a whole. On the other hand, I don't like slippery slope here. What about Chinese maintainers? What about maintainers from countries that do supply chain attacks on consumer electronics? What about countries who have security agencies that have been known to spy on senior officials in friendly countries? Where do you draw the line on who can contribute to a open source project that benefits all of humanity regardless of what their fuckhead governments are doing? https://www.phoronix.com/news/Linus-Torvalds-Russian-Devs
