Do you ever feel like an LLM found the equivalent of your LiveJournal and posted it to a public mailing list?

@dboehmer @mjgardner @m00dy @knut haha, no, I didn't really take a look into that. Funnily enough we recently had a conversation about perl on the #9fans discord server.

Though I wouldn't say 'Nein' to perl on 9 😁

If a bunny were to make tools, they would lack something in sophistication.

I'm doing a survey on plan 9 and touch user interfaces. Any plan 9 user (on any distribution) can participate. https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/T71948c07cc50eb8d-Me06755e6c739e09f5e5285a1/survey-touch-user-interfaces-and-plan-9 #9fans #9front #plan9 #plan9frombelllabs #belllabs

I've long wanted to give [[plan 9]] another try.

I use 9front as it is the most actively maintained http://9front.org

There’s active communities:

The Plan9 public grid http://9p.zone

On IRC ##9fans on http://oftc.net

On Discord https://discord.gg/eu8VBUs

@SDF funny, we talked a little about this on the #9fans discord server

Keep in mind that I personally am a 9front user and feel very home on grid, and somewhere between cat-v and #9fans. Therefore my content will be biased, but I'm happy to boost and publish your 9-related content! 🙂

Many interesting programs are not implemented in C, but the scripting language rc. This shows that the filesystem abstraction (everything really IS a file) is indeed very powerful.

KABOOM!

Why use bloated tools if we can already do everything we want?

Acme is NOT the standard text editor, but it's still very nice. Having multiple windows makes it better than ed, at least.

Everything is just a click away.

Better than Photoshop^WPaint.
