Poll about graphics free software we use the most between Inkscape, GIMP, Blender, and other. It is my first poll ever in all social networks and I didn't expect it to be a big success with hundreds of participants and a lot of reshares and likes. Oh, and it is still 1 day left to go.
My post about list of GNU/Linux distros we can follow at Mastodon showing a picture of Ubuntu, Fedora, Debian, etc., and with hundreds of reshares and likes and replies.
My post titled Ubuntu 20.04 Graphic Design Suite with a picture of Akira, GIMP, Inkscape, Krita, etc. It was originally published on https://www.ubuntubuzz.com.
My post titled User Friendly Resources to Learn GNU/Linux with three pictures of getgnulinux.org, and trylinux.today, and flossmanuals.net websites.

started a year ago after years of modern IDE, just to use #orgmode

by now i still see the usage of emacs as no way to be my IDE of choice, because it would need many customisations.
for org tasks it is great, but to code, OMG there is so much shit to do to have something decent.

MIT license? So it allows building a proprietary product on top of it. Nice business opportunity :-/ @aral @tykayn

It’s under MPL, not MIT. Which means, yes, it is still (by design of the license) open to corporate capture and enclosure. Ideally, it would be under GPL but I’m not going to fight that battle right now as I have too much on. Perhaps someone else can take it on and mention the pros/cons? :)

Not sure which radio to check: Atari XT 8088 (must have been close to this one: ataripc.net/pc3-8088/) with a Bernstein EGA monitor and a 20 MB hard drive. I remember having used a special driver to steal some kB from the EGA turning it into a CGA, so I ended up with 640k FREE RAM when the system was loaded. Ought to be enough for everybody, someone™ said in 1992…

Oh, and my floppies had 800k (punching a hole into the 360s and using another driver) 🙈

Though it was just their PC (well, even that used a couple of original Atari hardware). The Atari ST I just gaped on open-mouthed at a friends place, seeing its musical capacities…

Fun fact: the first ones I've used were Commodore's C16/C64/C4+. A friend had the latter one, but no "hard money" left for a printer, so he built an adapter for his electrical type-writer's line buffer. He demonstrated that once to me: machine gun fire sound, poor grandies were running for the shelters 🙈
