    An open invitation to Linux users across the board, offering a closer look at the penguin and its iceberg, a walk across the ecosystems that make it possible, an exploration beyond one’s biome. https://club.unix.rocks/commentary/under-linux/ ping: https://framapiaf.org/@fcambus@mastodon.sdf.org/116557961134185563

    Wouldn’t you believe it, this site is running off my special home server: a Nintendo Wii with a 729 MHz PowerPC CPU and a whopping 64 MB usable RAM! It runs NetBSD 10.1 and serves this site exclusively over IPv6 – clients connecting through IPv4 are proxied via another server… http://wii.sjmulder.nl/

  • Break things here, not in production. Testing, experiments, and sandbox shenanigans.

Compare with this morning's https://billboard.bsd.cafe/post/189, where the first two shares were below the opening post: the first share appears as a boost by Mastodon ID @announcements@bsd.cafe at https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/@stefano@billboard.bsd.cafe/116373336660957859 in the BSD Cafe Announcements area the second share, by @stefano@mastodon.bsd.cafe, is not visible to me at https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/@stefano/with_replies – I imagine that @stefano sees the share, as himself in Mastodon, as a mention.
