@futurebird How about an Amiga 4000 running #NetBSD running nanotodon?

This machine happens to be one of the machines that compiles m68k #pkgsrc binaries for NetBSD.

I love that these machines are still quite useful in 2025, whether running NetBSD or AmigaOS. There was just an update to AmigaOS in March, and I took this machine apart fo install new AmigaOS 3.2.3 ROMs (with Kickstart 47.115).

It’s getting harder and harder to find modern programs for classic Mac OS or even PowerPC Mac OS X, but people are keeping SSL, ssh, usable browsers and email clients, games and all sorts of other things up to date on Amigas.

A family of (OpenSSL) forks.

Allow me to give you a glimpse of their differences, similarities and some insights into what it takes to support them all in .

En réponse aux débilités qu'on peut lire sur les machines virtuelles sur cette bouse de linkedin, je me suis fendu d'une petite explication linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:l
Je suppose que ça va faire 3 vues, y'a trop de mots et même pas d'icône fusée...

@dvandal @strlcat @davidgerard

Wayland and systemd are both symptoms of the same behaviour, as was PulseAudio:

  • Observe that an existing system has flaws.
  • Don't engage with users to identify use cases.
  • Throw up some half-finished code (with incomplete or nonexistent backwards compatibility) that solves some of the problems of the old system but doesn't address all of its use cases and introduces more problems for other people.
  • Declare that the old thing is deprecated and everyone needs to move to the new thing.
  • Create a load of work in the rest of the ecosystem that other people have to do.
  • Silence all criticism by pointing out that the old thing was imperfect.

And that's the kind of thing that you can only get away with if you're able to act as a monopoly, by employing maintainers at key points across the ecosystem.

The biggest problem with Microsoft was not that their monopoly allowed them to be evil, it was that it allowed them to be stupid. A lot of things in the MS ecosystem are actually bad for Microsoft, but they're pushed out because no one inside MS cares enough to do the right thing and no one outside is able to fix the problems. I, personally, don't want the F/OSS OS ecosystem to end up like that.

What's up with that you might ask?

Well, for starters let's imagine an IP-less guest that starts a service in <10ms
