From @ratfactor@mastodon.art 's blog post https://ratfactor.com/leaving-github > Independent FOSS developers do not owe anything to companies, including the slightest effort to "secure the software supply chain" for "consumers." As the licenses say, THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND ā€¦ā€‹ As somebody else on fedi once said, we ain't part of your corporation's supply chain because you didn't sign any agreement with us to that effect.

I wonder how soon Github will start force-updating repositories for 'important software supply chain elements' whose developers have walked away from Github because of their policies and no longer push changes, bug fixes, security updates and so on to GH. I have other thoughts, but they boil down to 'software supply chain security demands seem like they're going to kill your free ride, enjoy what happens next'.

fellow white autistic tech dudebros, what is your relationship with privilege? I learned and then assumed that I'd often be the person with most privilege / automatic authority in a room due to those characteristics. I am now reckoning that this might have often not been the case, due to autistic traits: - speaking either too softly / too loudly - usually being the listener / question asker - looking boyish and weird - not having my shit under control because adhd - etc... #actuallyautistic

Ok, I cracked last night and upgraded my Starfield preorder so I could play it two days early. Not because I was terribly excited about it but because I couldn't stand not knowing whether it was a good game or not. And, well, I've put about two hours into it and it's honestly the most uninspired, unoriginal game I've played in a long time, the voice acting is bad, the writing is worse, the gameplay for the most part is Fallout 4 exactly and after 700 hours logged I'm a little done with Fallout 4, the space flight bit is like a less polished version of No Man's Sky except you can't fly down onto planets seamlesslyā€”in 2023!ā€”and the 3D engine has my GPU struggling above 90C with fans going like jet engines at medium settings where NMS easily stays below 80C at max settings and looks better at any setting, and I've already had one thermal shutdown event in addition to multiple crashes to desktop. So, basically, typical AAA game launch, will probably revisit in a couple of months when I'm in the mood for it and maybe it's less broken but right now the new NMS update sounds a lot more appealing. So, everyone going "it's Skyrim meets No Man's Sky," I don't know what you've been smoking, it's literally just Fallout 4 in space, and as far as space goes it's nothing like NMS, or even Mass Effect, just another tired Outer Worlds style rehash of the same tired SF clicheĢs. Well, I suppose if you liked Outer Worlds you'll probably like this one too, in the same way a lot of people enjoy eating at McDonald's. It's just, with Baldur's Gate 3 so fresh in mind I guess I've come to expect a little more.

But despite Chef's success, Adam constantly battled self-doubt and finding his footing as a leader. In this raw episode, Adam shares how the pressure of going from sysadmin to startup CTO caused an... [ā€¦]

Yes force-with-lease is good - but beware https://www.jvt.me/posts/2018/09/18/safely-force-git-push/#caveats - it can lull you into a false sense of security without specifying the ref!

When I was little (in the 90s) and the radio was my only source of music, I used to get really annoyed when they played music I didn't like at the time. One of them was Alanis Morissette because it was always on. Anyway... I was a fool. It's so embarrassing to admit that I am only now appreciating her songs. On the other hand, if I had known about "You Oughta Know" many years ago when I had a heartbreak, I probably would have embarrassed myself on social media at the time. šŸ˜‚
