We've just updated https://t.co/EkwTYyJ0UM -- 1527 new entries added, bringing us to a total of 67,206 pieces of recorded music catalogued (on 16,092 discs, if anyone still remembers what those are). Happy searching in 2025 and beyond!
@marcaureleb Indeed, in some sense you can only "possess" *your copies* of the code, or of any digital data, really. That's not even a point about licensing; it's a point about the physics of information storage and transfer. But it's the basis of why open source works.
Dear @TheDemocrats,
It is outrageous that you are sending fundraising emails at this time. The people you purport to represent have been telling you we need a new candidate for over a year, and now we're screaming it. Have you no ears?

Question for Chicago-area carnivores:
Is it even possible to buy a whole turkey outside the Thanksgiving and Christmas seasons? Everywhere that I normally shop doesn't carry turkeys except at those two times. I would drive for turkey. Please advise.

@chadwhitacre@fredtrotter@chadwhitacre Updated in the repository now (this change actually includes this suggestion and one other that you made, which I'll also follow up to here, for thread completeness):

@chadwhitacre@chadwhitacre Thanks! See https://t.co/uFXSPglu5r -- the commit referenced there also incorporates this.
(Btw, I think I flagged the wrong nick there, as I just now noticed that your birdsite handle has an underscore at the end.)

@chadwhitacre@fredtrotter@chadwhitacre Thanks! I am just seeing this (and your follow-ups) now -- I'm very very rarely on birdsite nowadays. I'll commit an update to the DOSP report repository. Might as well put our improvements there as we get them; if some day there is a v2, then so much the better.
Hey, @TheAtlantic. "No support agents are currently available to take your call. Please call back later." <recorded message followed by auto-hangup>
Seriously? I haven't received an issue for months, even though my subscription is current. Now I can't even wait on hold?
Call for information: We’re looking for examples of delayed open source publication (DOSP). That’s when software is published under a proprietary license at first, then later open sourced.

Thank you!
Ah, minor correction: I think the deadline might be tomorrow night, not tonight. Sorry about that (I misinferred something from a not-actually-ambiguous post on the TPM site).
Hey all. The @TPM Journalism Fund (I just gave) is *this close* to meeting their $500,000 goal by their self-imposed deadline of midnight tonight. Sure, the urgency is manufactured, but we all know how this game is played. Support a great organization:
