One of my favourite #Debian features: the #dwww package.

All system documentation is accessible, offline, via a web browser (or the commandline "dwww" utility).

Man pages, info, system release history, extended documentation, RFCs (if you choose to install those). Just massive gobs of stuff.

https://github.com/tilleul/apple2/tree/master/tools/6502_assembler someone made a 6502 assembler that runs inside a spreadsheet and I LOVE IT, this is SUCH a good idea

I created this "Maslow's hierarchy of jobs" about 20 years go. Iv'e found to be good guide for when was time to move on (or stay). If you're failing at one or more of the lower 5 levels (pay not likely to continue, getting paid but nobody cares what you do) might be time to find a more productive gig.

You probably won't see this from HR in goals setting and performance management sessions.

Self-built IBM-XT compatibile #mini8088 #retrocomputer is up and running! Couldn't find a 28.636Mhz crystal, just a 14.318 one, so I'm stuck with a 4.77Mhz clock and a turbo mode of 7.16Mhz (no 9.55 for now).
Serial port, CF, audio, floppy and VGA all tested fine! Now I just need the smaller 8bit backplane and to drill holes in the brackets. #homebrewcomputing

Lol at folks worried about free speech because a billionaire reality TV show fascist lost his Twitter account for doing the exact kind of shit that would get literally any random person on Twitter suspended.

Please, sincerely, go fuck yourself because you ain't fooling anyone.

Folks; the good news is that a couple of thousand chuds do not a coup make - even if the DC police are taking selfies with them.

The bad news is that about a third of the country is telling you they're done with democracy and any election the Volk don't win, is illegitimate.

The chuds in D.C. are the sideshow, the chuds in the Pennsylvania State legislature yesterday showed you what the GOP of the future is - and that's an objectively fascist party; employing objectively fascist politics.

A thread on why I use #ZFS. Each toot is one reason.

1/ Protection against Silent Data Corruption - data corruption that is not detected by any other component of the system. ZFS checksums or hashes every bit of data in the filesystem, data or metadata, and you can schedule a prediodic scan ("scrub") to see if all data is intact. On RAID setups, ZFS will automatically correct it for you. I've witnessed the value of this, particularly on petabyte-scale installations. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_corruption#Silent

@dosnostalgic oh you wiley DOS marxists! Always seizing the means of produc~n.exe

A fascinating idea. Viewing your browser tabs as part of the filesystem, allowing you to use standard Unix filesystem tools to view and manipulate the tab contents. The Unix "everything is a file" concept is still a powerful one.

Our truck just got stolen, if you see it, please reach out.

Our truck is a dark grey F350 diesel, with our bunk bed and 5th wheel hitch in the back, license plate #806-AQH (Oregon plates).

There were two yellow-lid tubs in the front passenger seat, and we have an aluminum box on the back that was secured with a single bungeecord.

Please boost.

If you know of any resources to help find a stolen vehicle like this please call it out...already putting in a police report, but are assuming they'll do basically nothing...we depend on our truck for work, housing, and...

...idk, everything?

One fun thing about writing an emulator is you go through a phase where unimplemented functions expose rarely-seen error messages, like this one from SkiFree:

The socially acceptable replacement for a handshake is now, "Wonder Twin powers, activate!"
