Hey folks! The game I've built is coming to Steam. 🎉
Just imagine! A Minesweeper-like MMO with an infinite map... 🙀
Please WISHLIST:) 🙏

Telegram Direct:
About a month ago I soft-launched Grid Lands — an idea that lived in my head for years.
Since then I've added more mechanics, better balance, and a tutorial.
Thanks to everyone who played, broke things, and shared feedback. Thank you 🙏
It’s still very early. Please treat it as early access.
If you enjoy experimental multiplayer strategy, come explore the endless grid.

@david_chisnall@infosec.exchange We've been in the Linux monoculture for some time already. It is the most popular operating system in the world powering the vast part of the entire World's IT-infrastructure for decades.
Spent 30 minutes the other day with an AI coding agent (the model was Opus 4.7). Made myself a Telegram bot that receives a query, uses it to find a torrent, downloads it, and notifies back when ready.
Uses python, rtorrent, prowlarr, and flaresolverr. Prepared podman quadlet based setup for it.
This one is going to live on my RPi with a storage box connected.

@ThePSF 💭 A genuine question:
Should the PSF continue to sustain PyCon US directly?
It’s the flagship Python event, but it also seems to consume a large portion of PSF funds with limited benefit for the global community.
Wouldn’t it make more sense for PyCon US to rely more on external sponsorships and partnerships, instead of drawing so much from the PSF itself?
Also, how much support do regional PyCons receive by comparison?

What da h311 are you talking 'bout!?
I’m putting my little game on Steam, and I paid the Steam Direct Submission Fee through my legal entity.
Valve’s confirmation is just a web page with no supplier or payment identification details. It references an invoice number, but I can’t seem to access the actual invoice.
❔ Has anyone paid the Steam Direct fee and found a way to get a proper receipt from Valve?
Want to give your teammates a headache? 😄
Try this on `main`:
```
git commit --allow-empty --allow-empty-message -m "" && git push
```
A commit with no changes *and* no message… perfectly valid, technically cursed.
How marginal are you?

Neat one-liner for updating a PR while keeping your local main fresh.
git fetch origin main:main && git rebase main && git push --force-with-lease
This: • updates your local main • rebases your current branch onto it • safely force-pushes the updated history
Compact, explicit, and avoids drifting main locally.

@fosstodon I was under assumption (no idea why) that it is already the case and was trying to quote a post this morning:) Did not succeed of cause.
Replying to
@fosstodon Yeah, I noticed they’ve only got a handful of active users. Announcements like this might end up giving them more attention than they’d get otherwise.
Still, good to have the clarification so folks don’t get confused.

@webology @lorenipsum @ThePSF In my experience one pursues other sources first to improve diversification of funding and allow a flexibility of choice.
The logic we need to drop this source to persue other ones doesn't make sense to me, sorry.
Replying to
@webology @lorenipsum @ThePSF That's great to know. IMO, generating expenses is not the best way to attract sponsors:) Generating opportunities for a wider sponsored brand presence and reach is 🤷♂️
Mission impossible
This is too funny, sorry:)

If you have a script analyzing the diff to main that is used by other people they might not have such an alias.
Clever though.

@nik@toot.teckids.org it was dead stuck on zero speed.
My guess is that I've missed Ctrl+C and got lucky with the timing:)
But it was weird as $#17
