Looking at the reporting, it does seem like the 68LC040 emulation at least worked (just slightly buggy), which is much better than the not-booting Linux of the same era. I should probably not be surprised to see NetBSD run on yet another th

I don't think that will work on non-x86 architectures. As far as I know, you can't boot linux on 68LC040 at all, perhaps if someone forked uCLinux and made it work with no FPU and no MMU you might get something going, because all

I think that'd be cool. The physical connection might be easy enough, if the serial speed is set low-ish you can get by with just some wires: https://68kmla.org/bb/index.php?threads/powerbook-100-180-se...

I found the example where this exact ClarisWorks process was used: https://forum.vcfed.org/index.php?threads/transfer-applicati... Because serial ports (and modems) were pretty much the default thing to use (besides Lo

It did automatically detect MacBinary, I think there's even some example out there of someone doing exactly this. You don't need a terminal on the old Mac, but they did use a new Mac because it came with the macbinary tool preinst

You can indeed use xmodem or zmodem, and use a macbinary encoding to transfer any file you want in either direction. Does require you to have something that can receive over serial on the PowerBook. ClarisWorks could definitely do it, but o

It is pretty interesting how this has evolved over the decades. Most hardware has some sort of one-way identity that can be stored in a ROM or sometimes just on the mainboard (like adding/removing some zero-ohm resistors). But because

Because significance varies, as does optimisation. At YouTube scale it might matter more, or the benefits might be bigger, even if just to save some energy or carbon footprint (and even that might be just for a compliance or marketing line)

I think Betamax might have something to say about that.

Teams is bundleware, people don't use it because they want to, but because it was delivered by the IT contracts for microsoft products and is hard to un-bundle (until the EU stepped in and they are now making it optional).

Yet it doesn't even come close to a fraction of the adoption scale of containers, no matter how good it is. Ecosystems matter more than individual quality.

On the other hand, with a reflow station everything becomes modular and repairable. I do hope that a more widespread usage of compressed attachment gives us some development in that area where projects that were promising modular devices fa

In interested in learning why say, a device would be much more expensive if we use 1GiB of DRAM chips instead of 32MB. The chips themselves have the same physical footprint, power requirements, and as long as you pick one that is compatible

I've been pretty happy with HCL when using Terraform (or Tofu), especially considering there is pretty much no declarative language with a comparably sized ecosystem to match it against. Most tools and languages that advertise themselv

At least we still have OpenTofu. I wonder how the rest is going to get forked.

While that's true, It's also true that mobile devices tend to be a rather static configuration during their lifetime, and if you're going to have a fleet of those, having the best performance during that lifetime is a nice bo

The article doesn't mention much about chip-to-controller distance or path length, presumably this suffers from the same issues we currently see where low power devices (and in some desktop configurations as well) can't really eve

This is the best way to conclude a project like this, I wish more clear cut "this is the end" choices were made. An ecosystem with zombie projects isn't healthy.

The irony here is that this AWS post is correct content-wise, but has nothing to do with AWS itself, they are just in it for the money. The same article would apply to Terraform (and OpenTofu as the fork now), which was a much more clear &q

I think it might be around the same time as the RetroPie wave when it got much more publicity than the early days around 2013, probably somewhere between the release of the Pi 3B and Pi 4B (2018-ish?). Around that time it was mostly N64, SN

We build on official releases and add our own artefacts. So we might pin to a microsoft dotnet hash, a JVM hash, a nodejs hash, and in our pipeline add a released application to that container. There are no packages installed, only files ad

This looks like a description of a team or department that has no product owners and no requirements elicitation process. Quality aspects can be measured, and resulting requirements will mitigate technical debt, unless you put that analysis

I suppose it is often a combination of company culture, local culture and KPIs and then a bunch of smaller things. I'm not up to speed on the latest and greatest research, but last time I went into that rabbit hole it boiled down to hi

I haven't heard of anything getting a Docker-related headache because it delegates reproducibility to whatever tools you pick. We haven't been bitten by it, and you might think I have not tried, but you'd be wrong and making
