It's 2026 and this is the GNU project.

@multisn8 That was my question as well. Apparently this project has a long history of naming releases out of whatever headlines are trending on the day of; one of the previous releases was called "epstein files".

Doesn't answer the question though.

@mhoye Horrific stupidity from a group that have never been victims.

@mhoye what the fuck.

[dalias@hachyderm.io]

@mhoye What the holy fuck. Can we have a list of folks involved in this project to be banned from all reasonable free software spaces?

[multisn8@donotsta.re]

@KatS@chaosfem.tw Could also just be pure ignorance

@mhoye OK from git history it looks like it's pretty much just this Ole Tange. https://cgit.git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/parallel.git/log/

@mhoye My expectations were low, but this is lower than that.

[techokami@woof.tech]

@mhoye what the actual fuck

[noisytoot@berkeley.edu.pl]

@mhoye iirc the last release was codenamed "Epstein Files" (edit: not the last release, but a few releases back)
