Maybe not yet but I can see Linux's place as the shitbox saviour start slipping a bit in the next few years. Debian dropping x86, distros getting fatter in general.. I can't really see those trends reversing. Meanwhile NetBSD goes

Strangely enough Yamaha has never released a software version of any of their synths. (there's S-YXG50 and the Montage one but I wouldn't really count those)

agreed*. You often hear this assumption today that Netscape was always the better browser and that people using IE were simply making a mistake. If anything they were just shit in different ways. For a while Netscape refused to implement CS

i'm guessing you've never seen r/LocalLLaMA? It's a miracle that open-weight LLMs are even a thing at all, let alone as good as they are (very).

There was a guy on reddit a few years ago who started a dental practice with entirely open-source software and his own EHR system. Really interesting stuff, don't think anyone's posted about it here. Can't view his reddit his

I had a strange AI experience the other day. I asked Kimi K2 to write a 6809 indexed operand decoder in C, and this is what it gave: uint16_t ea_indexed(void) { uint8_t post = *PC++; uint16_t base, off = 0; /*

In my experience the old computer nerd communities don't do much to help get young people that would be interested into it. A lot of the discussion online mainly just consists of reminiscing about how amazing the '80s were. Docume
