Funniest thing I read today, thank you!

My parents had me setup on an old MacBook when I was about 1, It was an application called "babysmash" or something. It would pop up shapes and noises as you hit the keyboard. I ha…

My partner lamented the same thing... Cray was doing this 40+ years ago

It's happened!

Hearing what I cut my teeth on as "old computing" sure makes me feel old lmao

I think this is really neat. Been wanting to create an ESP32-based environment monitoring system for outside to replace the cheap 915 MHz weather station I have. CAN might not be a…

all good, probably just me seeing patterns.

The destination IP has some high-value octets, almost wondering if it's a software bug in something out there: Address: 66.252.224.242 01000010.11111100.11100000. 11110010 Maybe a …

this is very interesting... been watching the work around bootc coupling with composefs + dm_verity + signed UKI, I'm wondering if this will build upon that.

Glad to see SunOS/Solaris still alive in some form in the Open Source space. Had heard of Illumos and OpenIndiana, but didn't know about SmartOS. It's definitely won me over with t…
