@Edent however, you didn't make a note on the very unique part of this change, which is that Gargron basically got back wages for his years of work on Mastodon. That's extremely unusual; Open Source developers often only have a chance to maybe someday get a submarket full-time job supporting their project (and usually to add Enterprise features). I hope it represents a change in that direction too.
@Edent all of which is a prelude to saying that the History of England Podcast is great for people like me who don't know the difference between a Plantagenet, a Rump Parliament and a peasant revolt.
Thanksgiving and Christmas should be six months apart. It's very difficult to have to deal with those people again that soon.(Due to events in my personal life, this week's #HootinTootinTuesday will be on a Wednesday. My apologies for the delay.)#Humor #Humour #FunnyMeme #Turkey #TurkeyDay #DadJokes #Thanksgiving #ThanksgivingDinner #Holidays #Dogs #Dogstodon ##DogsOfMastodon #Dog #Dachshunds #WienerDogs #DogMemes
@symbolics I've see records of a purchase of a Xerox Interlisp D-machine by an Italian research institution in the late 1980s. The price tag, which included WAN connectivity and support, was eye watering.
