Deephack on Tech

Since 2004, this community has helped make Firefox and the open internet possible. Our “Come Back to Firefox” campaign reunites a few early internet icons to remind people what made the internet special, and why it’s worth protecting.

Trying out colibri for fun. It's a Slack alternative based on ATProtocol. I made a little community here if you want to jump in and try it out with me colibri.social/invite/EaKLC...

So who out there uses the collaboration features in their IDE? I'm a big fan of Zed but which one do you use? #Tech #IDE #Code

S.u.S.E. Linux 5.3 became the first commercial distro to ship #KDE. Today,#openSUSE still proudly ships KDE Plasma & the partnership continues. This video documenting KDE’s history is important; huge respect to everyone who made it & the project possible. youtu.be/1Vyzla9mx4g

Credited as the first software engineer and worked on the Apollo flight computer project. We salute you!

Really nice to see this product develop and become more refined over time. Keep up the great work! #Tech #DistractionFreeWriting

Run an old IBM compatible PC today. This brought me a little joy playing around with and it has the excellent GlaBIOS. #Tech #Retro

Wrote another blog post on my silly Apple //c based blog site. This time talking about what old machines can teach us. #Retro #Knowledge

Just posted a new video on my YouTube channel. Be sure to take a peek and let me know what you think. A very short simple one today on a likely overlooked command. #Tech #cal

OpenTofu 1.13 adds official Windows ARM64 builds, new functions for reducing unknown values during planning, and early experimental linting. linuxiac.com/opentofu-1-1... #OpenTofu #Terraform #IaC #DevOps #OpenSource

Is NixOS the path to digital sovereignty for governments looking to own their workstations OS and software stack? #Tech #DigitalSovereignty

Maybe this is the push that I need to learn how to actually edit video and not just do everything in a single take. #Tech #Video

I thought Microsoft weren't supposed to be evil anymore. Oh well, another cool Nix related project to try out. #Tech #Nix #Desktop

Got to try out CP/M on this Swedish Compis computer at the computer club last night. #Tech #Retro

Dan Lorenc at Chainguard posted this statement about #curl on LinkedIn...

This is super cool looking. Firing up FS-UAE to give it a go today. stevehiggins.itch.io/amiga-rescue #Tech #Retro #Gaming

Went to Update Computer Club in Uppsala yesterday and brought along my Apple //c so it could meet it's Swedish cousin. #Tech #Retro #Apple2

Interesting article and certainly part of the current issues with Github. #Tech

Delta is now in public beta. It’s a multiplayer environment for coding with agents and reviewing what they build, with every code change linked to the conversation that produced it. Anyone can download it today on macOS, Linux, and Windows: delta.dev/download

Playing around with Tangled CI and running my own Nix cache today. It's rather fun! #Tech #Tangled #Nix

Any opinions on Scaleway? I'm evaluating them just now as a possible EU based hosting option. #Tech #Cloud

This is how you game trailer. #Tech #Gaming

I made a very silly blog which I will continue to post to. It's a nice chance to explore the idea of distraction free writing while enjoying the joy of retro computing. Big shout out to banjamink on Github for making the software which enables this! www.deephack.uk #Tech #Retro

You're working on a Github pull request but then you realise that you're on the original repo not your forked one. Git diff to the rescue! Just "git diff > mypatch.patch" and then on your forked repo run "git apply mypatch.patch". #Tech #Git

This looks like a neat little project and a great way for people to get into coding with a simplified machine. #Tech #Retro

Q: How to create a VM in 10 seconds from the terminal? A: 🦌 kudu — A TUI for creating/managing QEMU virtual machines on Linux 💯 A lightweight alternative to virt-manager/GNOME Boxes 🦀 Written in Rust & built w/ @ratatui.rs ⭐ GitHub: github.com/pythops/kudu by @pythops.com #rustlang #ratatui

Nice new TUI for managing virtual machines! Going to go play with this. #Tech #TUI

Okay this is very cool looking. Would you like a TUI for your TUIs? #Tech #TUI

This goes pretty hard. Love it!

Ooh, a rare Commodore machine that I had never heard of. Very cool! #Tech #Retro

This is fantastic, I've been planning to create a blog for a while and this may be just how I do it. #Tech #Apple #Retro

Quick reminder that I have a discord server where we chat about techy things in general. Come join if you would like. I'm planning to start a weekly drop in video call where people can hang out and talk about their projects and interests. #Tech #Discord

New blogpost! #NixOS gvolpe.com/blog/dots-su...

One day I'll get my hands on one of these or thanks to the power of upgrade-ability I'll turn my current Framework 13 into one of these. #Tech #RightToRepair

Dear Finland, thanks for all the tech. Nokia, SSH, Linux, tangled.org Probably lots of other stuff I've forgotten. #Tech

I’ve deleted most of my X accounts and am now focusing entirely on Bluesky. If you’re a Commodore 64 fan, I’d love your follow! Thank you for your support! @everythingc64.itch.io #Commodore #C64 #RetroComputing #RetroGaming #Bluesky
