  • What the fuck did you just say about Sync for Lemmy, you little casual? I’ll have you know it’s not FOSS, and it has options for paying for a subscription!

    I’ve been trained in open-source warfare and have over 300 confirmed commits on GitHub. You think your proprietary software can stand a chance against the might of the FOSS community? Think again, scrub.

    While you were wasting time on paid subscriptions, we studied the art of collaboration and freedom. We know every line of code in the Linux kernel and can fork repositories with pinpoint accuracy. Your closed-source tactics won’t work here.

    You call it a “premium feature”? Ha! We see through your money-grubbing schemes. In the realm of open-source, the true premium is transparency and accessibility for all.

    So, take your subscription nonsense and run back to your proprietary lair. The FOSS community will continue to thrive and grow, empowering users worldwide with the power of choice and knowledge.













  • It started innocently enough, some friends writing simple C programs that would output an ever increasing text file containing the letter ‘a’. This rapidly devolved into a competition of who could output the largest files the fastest.

    We had progressed to recursively launching spaghetti programs competing with streamlined data-dumpers until we started to hit storage limits on the central server.

    10/10 great learning experience.
