"Excuse me," said the knight, "but may I borrow that... er... implement?"
"My hoe?" the farmer said. "What for, milord?"
"For yonder dragon."
"The one bellowing in the hills? But you have a lance and a sword!"
"Why should I fight it? The dragon only asks for scritches."

Finally got a chance to read some of the programming documentation for the SymbOS operating system for Z80 systems.

free software, repost to public
we have a fortunes-off file so you can print offensive quotes at login time. No distro I know of comes with a fortunes-supportive file that lists encouraging, calming quotes.
You can make sudo(8) insult users when they type their passwords wrong ("Defaults insults" in sudoers). There's no option to make sudo be gentle and understanding when you mistype.
I grew up in free software circles and only really learned any emotional skills after growing out of them.

Okay who will be the first FOSS conference to stream via the newly updated #peertube ?!
We wanted alternatives, we supported it, now we need to use it.
Make your mark on history, I dare you;)

Hey so, Salesforce just bought Slack. Salesforce has a history of monetizing things they buy in really aggressive manners so I'm expecting some Changes there soon.
If you use Discord, I'll also note that when a thing's main competition has a problem is when companies choose to make Big Moves so don't be shocked if Discord makes major changes or either gets bought themselves very soon.
I've been banging the drum of "Have backups for your communities" for years now, but it's more serious now.

That moment when you read through a blog article, and now you want to implement all of its ideas, but you don't have a readily available project to use it with.
