no they didn't... they created infected packages in the AUR (the users repository). Any package you use from the AUR, you do it at your own risk! And you can do it too!
This is the same if i created an infected PPA... would i be slipping malware into Ubuntu?

"into Arch Linux" is inaccurate and misleading. The AUR is explicitly not part of Arch Linux, if you sticked to official repositories everything is fine. Please update/clarify your post headline.

โ€œMinimum Wage Machineโ€

โ€œThe minimum wage machine allows anybody to work for minimum wage. For as long as they turn the crank, the user is paid in pennies as time passes. For example, if minimum wage is $7.25/hour (the current US Federal rate), then the worker is paid one penny every 4.97 seconds. If they stop turning the crank, they stop receiving money. The machine's mechanism and electronics are powered by the hand crank, and pennies are stored in a plexiglas box. The MWM is reprogrammed as minimum wage changes, or for wages in different locations.โ€

Usenet, the precursor to online communities, was already shaping digital culture before the internet boom.

I really miss my Usenet newsgroups. I was very active on them from the late 1980s to late 2010s when they started to die out. I still do a weekly check on my groups but only one is still active, the one for a newsreader program.

This is looks more like a spell checker rather than a grammar checker to me

"LanguageTool was acquired... ...processes data on US servers, instead of European ones."

Ew.

Also reminds me of how #Grammarly used to be. No frills; nice and simple. Harper also doesn't come with any privacy invasive features which is nice.

I played this with my son over the weekend, and even though I'm not usually susceptible to motion sickness, I had to stop playing after like 10 minutes. The way the characters arms move in front of you and the camera shake occurs just turned my stomach.
