An offer to press your GitHub repo onto a CD-ROM, and the reason it looks like phishing (forms.cloud.microsoft)
The joke lands because Sony just announced PlayStation is dropping physical media, and here's GitHub offering to put your code on a disc. Nice bit — except the 'GitHub' offer is a generic Microsoft Forms page anyone could have made, which is exactly what phishing looks like.
The thread couldn't decide if it was official, and enjoyed it anyway. One caught the archival irony: these would be burned discs, good for ~10 years, versus GitHub's real Arctic Code Vault. Another caught the copyright one: it asks permission to press your public repo to a CD — but training AI on all of it didn't need a checkbox.
