@ryanc I didn't take "this project broke GitHub" as literally as I should've before checking it out.

So, I checked the references of the Wikipedia article "link rot", and I decided to click on the first URL to a paper that I saw in the references.

Needless to say, the link did not lead me to a paper:

Please don't crucify me for linking to this, but this experience definitely aligns with what I've seen go on behind the scenes at Codeberg (as well as dozens upon dozens of other self-hosted software forges) lately.

my approach to working on super ambitious projects is "please do not ask me how that works or whether i can explain how this works..."

"i just crafted a magnum opus with the help of a lot of caffeine and just immediately discarded it from my brain because of the trauma" :D

Life is short and I'm here to have fun and meet new people. I use this account exclusively to share things I think about, things I work on, things I create, things I care about, as well as (very) silly posts.

I may be too young to be a full-time serious person, but definitely too old to segregate different aspects of me. And definitely too disorganized to keep portfolios.

I post frequently in private and my social media presence may not be your cup of tea. You have been warned. ✨

@libreleah Thanks, Leah!

@libreleah As you've been on Codeberg for a bit, I might as well check in: Any room for improvement on our end? ^^

@domi HEY, WOULDN'T IT BE GREAT IF WE HAD AN OPEN-SO—

noot noot

@HauntedOwlbear Hi, sorry, this isn't applicable to this case, it was intended to be a more general parody of open-source software as well as make the joke more surreal by creating a direct contradiction (proprietary + being pro-Stallman).

It wasn't my intend to mislead - I'll edit my post and add a notice if I come across another case of a person getting confused about it.

The whole internet loves Milkshake Password Manager, a lovely FOSS product that gives you free ice cream! *5 seconds later* We regret to inform you the Manager is going proprietary and loves Richard Stallman

The attack on the #InternetArchive came at the worst possible time, less than a week after losing their appeal, kicking them while they're down. There was a clear attempt at achieving publicity.

To me personally, the goal is destroying their public credibility and their image of them being the most appropriate place to preserve history - they've clearly annoyed someone, so they're doing something right.

Over the past few months, I played around with OpenStreetMap a lot so as to learn some Blender basics. As there was a lack of a comprehensive guide out there on the Internet, I published something for the first time in ages.

"Importing OpenStreetMap data into Blender using JOSM and OSM2World"

very sad to announce that open-source is woke - install windows and pay the license to escape the woke virus
