Happy (delayed) Birthday Linux! 35 and counting.
Thanks for letting me in control!
And, err, I feel some urgency to look at myself, older than 35 and counting.My digital journey:
- mid 80's (childhood): my first PC, the awesome #ZXSpectrum 128K! self learning #BASIC, dreaming everything could be done with a computer. Playing around with my friend's #Commodore64K as well. - 1999
- 1991: #Linux is born! ... and I have no idea...
- early 90's (teenagehood): saved money for a couple of years or so, and bought the #Amiga500 expanded to 1M. #AmigaBASIC and #AmigaDOS; #Workbench1.3 is my place. Learning some #DOS, #Pascal and the almighty #C in high school.
- late 90's (dropped the university), bouncing from a short job to another. I could not afford a new computer, but I built one using scraps from other people. Late adoption of early MS Windows (95 to XP). I bought a PC magazine which included a CD with a full copy of #BorlandC++: BOOM! You know, I had no CD-ROM drive, but these are details I worked around. My unconscious feeling "Code is power, code is control" starts growing fast, but I feel trapped by licenses and lock-ins.
- 2000's: my first Linux discoveries #mandrakelinux / #knoppix live CD. That was sooooo cool, but I could not release myself from MS tools and app. #lock-in
- 2009: completely switched to #linux (Thanks #Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex 9.04) and never had a personal non-linux PC ever since - but I have to deal with them at work 🙁. I also bought a 512MB-RAM Atom Netbook that's still alive, running on #debian 12.- 2012: my first smartphone (Android): I think I did not know at that time Linux was running under the hood. Today I know it's not the same thing anyway.
- 2014: after a five years learning curve (barely no free time, you're supposed to be a dad, lately. And work all day long, of course!) I was able to port, test and publish my comfort code ❤ (#APT package)
- 2024:
- farewell Ubuntu; hopped to #Debian to give some fresh air to my values and needs. APT fits me better than Snaps and Flatpaks . I know I could do better (#InitSystem, #displaymanager, etc.), but Iet's try to get to some kind ethics/pragmatism trade-off 😀
- so long, GMS. Hopped to #eos on my smartphone.---- TODAY ----
War is across the globe. All of the areas are building wall, setting up (or trying to) domestic infrastructures before bombs drop in their houses. Bragging about sovereignty (also digital). An Italian privacy-focused FOSS infrastructure is enlisted as terrorist.
The Earth is warmer, hearts are colder.
The sky is still blue.
---- WISHLIST and GOALS ---- unsorted
- Be a good person
- Give back and give away to the world
- Get on stage again and do that regularly
- A pure-Linux daily driver smartphone
printf("CTRL+C to break.\n"; while(alive){ ROCK(); DANCE(); breath(); love(); CODE(); CODE(); CODE();}
- My son embracing #FOSS
- Be a better person -

Sooo, der #Macmini G4 an seinem Platz, neben dem #Amiga500. Jeder hat seinen Bildschirm.
Die Nerdecke ist jetzt nicht mehr „Homeoffice", sondern Nerdecke!
Mal sehen, ob und wie ich da das Homeoffice noch integriert bekomme 🤣
Und jetzt schauen wie mal, ob wir auf dem iBook G4 den Amiga-Emulator so zum Laufen bekommen, dass er seniorenkompatibel ist…
Let's GO!

The Great Giana Sisters. Stage 14 at first attempt playing it after several decades. I admit a level warp from AFAIR 6 to 9 though. #retrogaming #retrocompuing #amiga500

Çocukken Atarim, Commadoreum yada Amigam olmadığı için aslında bir tâne istiyorum, ama bu zamanda işime yarayacak bir özelliklerini göremediğim için alamıyorum!
Yine de kaçırdığım bir şey olabilir mi, yada bu donanım ile çalışan günümüze dönük güzel uygulama yazılmış mı diye bakmaya devam ediyorum.
Hiç bir işe yaramasa bile genel kültürüm artıyor! ツ

Been collecting the obvious missing parts in my childhood #amiga500 in the background while restoring the #amiga3000t: floppy drive, missing tilde key, broken escape switch and power supply. Looking forward to digging into it once I clear the bench from the flurry of other items this past week or so.

I Got the Commodore 64 Ultimate! First Boot, First Impressions!

Çocukluğumda mahrum kaldığım Atari, #commodore64 #Amiga500 ile #Amiga1200 ve #PlayStation2 makinelerinden birini yada güncel sürümünü almak istiyorum.
Commodore 64'ün "Commodore 64 Ultimate" adıyla çok güzel yenisini çıkardılar.
Bir süredir hakkında değişik videolar izliyorum, ama maalesef günümüzde onunla yapacak hiç bir şey bulamadım!
Aynı paraya Amiga 1200 Ultimate olsa belki alırdım!
Commodore 64'ü Basic kodlama için istemiştim, ama uğraşabileceğimi sanmıyorum!
