Enshittification comes for open source:
Slack is kicking two large open source groups, Cloud Native Computing Foundation and Kubernetes, off of their donated enterprise tier, giving them one week notice to migrate multiple years of data to a new platform before it's all deleted: https://www.cncf.io/blog/2025/06/16/cncf-slack-workspace-changes-coming-on-friday-june-20/

Instead of learning from this experience and not trusting the good will of profit-motivated closed source companies, it looks like both projects will be moving to ... Discord. Because "people know it." Will we never learn?

(Dropped Cory because he's probably getting tons of spam from this. Sorry!)

@xgranade "Dems as a party are anti trans" is an underrecognized truth

dems are creaming themselves over "president elon and trump his chief of staff" and the last time they got this excited about a rhetorical flourish it was "republicans are weird" and we all know how effective that ultimately was

@molly0xfff stupid question, but isn't that cost offset by payment for the subs? if I have 20000 subs how much is that bringing in? (if self-hosting, I assume 20000 "subs" is no income at all)

I thought of a joke this morning

Just a lil guy #LatteArt

Amazing -- thanks to Obama and now Clinton's reinforcement, "crowd size" is synonymous with Trump's tiny dick

This blog post goes into why the "unreachable" function is getting called -- the compiler creates assembly that falls through: https://carette.xyz/posts/the_unreachable_code_bug/

So I think the idea is, they are defining this behavior so that this no longer happens?

yeahhhh screw you ubuntu for showing updates I can't get unless I pay for the pro version

@sotolf @GrayGooGirl the laws are worded vaguely and the punishments are severe, so organizations cancel the events on their own rather than risk someone getting arrested. This is the intended result, where the law does not even need to be applied to have a chilling effect.

@sotolf @GrayGooGirl this is exactly what happened to Megaplex https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-news/furries-beefing-ron-desantis-1234742107/amp/

Based on the vagueness of the law they had to make the con 18+ rather than risk legal action
