Liberland has successfully weathered its first winter. We celebrated our first Christmas and first New Year's in Liberland itself. Despite the challenges, we persevere! liberland.org/news/551-liberla

This Hyprland situation is just another reason why I fucking hate all this drama when it comes to FOSS projects. It's always due to bullshit reasons and it either kills a project or significantly hurts a project.

From what I can tell, the Hyprland community is mostly tame. They do engage in edgy humor but there is nothing wrong with that. It doesn't seem like Vaxry was using slurs or posting anything bigoted. And according to a podcast, he does ban people who are truly problematic.

But no, you had to use your janny powers to ban someone from FDO because they're lax when it comes to community moderation.

Though this situation is pretty mild compared to similar events, but this kind of behavior does eventually lead to the more extreme scenarios, such as complaining about "casual ableist language" (using words like "dumb" or "crazy"), throwing a hissy fit because a project is accepting crypto donations, or the PM rejecting someone's proposed BLM splash screen when the program starts up.

@xianc78 Wayland and Redhat dev/child rapist @Lyude tried to harangue and threaten hyprland's Dev, Vaxry, over public Discord messages from two years ago. Vaxry told him to fuck off, and now he's banned from freedesktop.org's git. Fellow Wayland Dev and incontinent child rapist @drewdevault is also slandering Vaxry for not kowtowing to the self-appointed supreme janny of the Linux desktop development world.

"I can confidently say that code quality should be the least of your concerns when it comes to your FOSS project."

Modern day devs, ladies and gentlemen.

@beardalaxy Apparently, the music you composed for my game (both songs) are being considered for someone's Pokemon clone.

Remembering the time someone paid $4.20 to cause an actual bomb threat on a college campus

It is morally okay to slaughter dogs for meat or leather. Non-human animals have no rights whatsoever. The whole "dogs are smart" argument is bullshit. Especially when you take into account that pigs are smarter than dogs yet nobody, except for vegetarians and vegans bats an eye when they are used for meat consumption. Also pigs are sometimes used as pets and pet pig owners literally don't care that other pigs are being eaten.
