This is the way to go, nobody should be relying on one apathetic corporation to house source code of all things. The amount of people with powerful 64bit machines, and $5 VPS's is just too damned high to be relying on something that c

Indeed it is. Plus I don't have to fight with other people if they don't like something about me or what I'm doing, I'm on my own, in my own little world. I originally setup the CVSweb thing to let google crawl the page

Because I like hosting the stuff myself, and I don't need anyone's approval or their 'community' bullshit, I'm free to do as I wish. Just as I like having CVS, so I can take a stock Darwin 0.3 instance and sync code

So I keep a few GB of source online via CVS http://unix.superglobalmegacorp.com/ , and I have been shying away from git anything as I did a gitlab install for someone and was amazed at how much hardware I had to throw at it

Come to Asia for Tokyo, but live in Hong Kong... To be fair I live in Hong Kong, and it's chaotic, sure when you first come here, but after a few months you adjust to it's normalcy... And it's really no different from New Yor

Facilities gets a different budget than operations. It's OK to spend $150k for an engineer that can't concentrate from the noise, but $1k to make him productive is out of the question, and out from another budget!

That is when they had to dump Rhapsody, and do the whole Carbon thing, as nobody was going to write for NeXTSTEP.

After finding the source to Darwin 0.1 / 0.3 which was Rhapsody / OS X Server 1.0 and getting it to build on x86, I thought it was cool that using remote display, and chroot from a NeXTSTEP root many things would run using the Rha

The monolith really works as a Visial metaphor for the Cinema screen. Just as the movie starts as we are staring at the monolith ready to go on a literal space Odyssey. It's a shame so many re-releases "fixed" the faux scree

The real joke is that the '32bit' version was written in parallel, and suppressed by IBM. You can read more, and actually run them here: https://www.pcjs.org/blog/2016/02/08/ It's a little

Oh there was, just people with big pockets. Have some application written in VB6? Need it to go faster where money is no object? Get VB for the Dec Alpha. Although I've never seen anyone do that, but there was such a thing. Now when

What fun is it doing things pre-made? Sometimes you want to make Apple Pie, just to prove you can.

It doesn't run automatically. I thought it was an interesting experiment as a 'tip jar' type thing. No I really don't expect to make even $0.01 but it's more so to gauge if anyone would actually click the button.

Probably far too late to mention, but I have a bunch of projects on SF, and now I can't scroll through them on the me drop down menu. It feels.. strange, and more responsive than the old stuff. I guess that's just change. I never

Thanks, I thought it looked pretty cool to mix in some random OS screen shots with the Ultima VII intro animation. I screen capped a bunch of the animation to paste it all in to get the banner. I have 14 of them now, I started with a simp

Thanks for the plug, I've been able to cross build just about every a.out buildable Linux kernel from Windows. In addition I've built and did some minor tyre kicking with GCC 0.9 https://virtuallyfun.com/2016/
