  2. Today is the 25th Anniversary of the start of Haiku OS, an open source OS attempting to pick up where BeOS left off. It is a clean room re-implementation of the public BeOS APIs that tried to embrace a lot of its core features like pervasive multithreading, desktop first, etc. It is still in active development, but in beta status, that can be a fun alternative OS to play with. This Google Tech Talk presentation on the state of the project 6 years in provides a lot of historical background I forgot. It was nice to see Jean-Louis Gasset, the founder and CEO of Be Inc give a warm introduction to the presentation. #BeOS #HaikuOS #foss #ComputerHistory youtu.be/tbXsqXhjEGU?si=2kbp4C…
  3. ​25 years of #HaikuOS! 🍃
    ​A great retrospective on a quarter-century of the open-source operating system carrying forward the spirit of #BeOS. Perfect read for #OpenSource and #RetroComputing enthusiasts.

  4. The (almost) untold story of the Haiku logo
    Do you know who originally designed the Haiku logo and how it changed over the years?
    There’s a fresh article that covers its origins, the refinements made by Stippi, and some behind-the-scenes details you don’t usually read about.

  5. Did you know the Haiku OS logo has a fascinating story behind its origins and design? 🎨✨ Take a visual journey exploring the evolution of the brand for one of the most interesting open-source operating systems out there.

  6. Small batch of Aika-related updates since I've been so quiet here on fedi for the past few months. Sorry about that, btw - lots of IRL personal shit going on that has left me horribly depressed and not very social most days.

    Anyway, I'm going to get YM2151 and OKI MSM6258 cores working in SDMChipMusic and add those to the VGM plugin (so I can listen to X68k music lol), then a WAV/Au plugin working, then ensure a
    #HaikuDepot package can be built with it, and finally call that Aika v0.0.3.

    I had expected v0.0.2 to be in the HaikuDepot so that
    #Haiku users could just download it through the package manager, but I didn't realize network access was limited during the build process. Derp. Anyway, I fixed that by introducing vendoring into my build system for the Pascal dependencies.

    Then the next step after that is Aika v0.1.0
    🎉 That'll require a desktop notification plugin, an optional equal loudness curve effect, and a working visualization of some sort (either oscilloscope or spectrum).

    Also, I started up a list of things for the eventual v0.2.0, which won't happen until next year:

  8. If you've ever been to one of the Linux install workshops run by the #endof10 project and @be4foss , there's a chance you've interacted with "little-my".

    She'll now go out to pasture in my test hardware rack, where her broken body will no longer be a problem, and she can frolic away her remaining days running builds and test suites in #HaikuOS, #9front, and various #BSDs.

  9. Little shout out to the #FOSS worlds underdog #opensource OS projects:
    - #illumos
    - #HaikuOS
    - #DragonFlyBSD
    - #Redox
    - #GNUHurd
    - #ReactOS

    All cool projects that always need some extra hands.

    Yup, and I have no stake in the game either way.
    I'm not some advocate of AI/vibe coding, and have only a passing curiosity about #HaikuOS #BeOS as a novelty.

    But when I read their take on the issue it just looked like a pile-on rant.

  11. Okay, so someone forked #HaikuOS and is using AI on their fork. The Haiku team seem to hate AI, not just objecting to using it on their code, they've got the pitchforks out for the fork.

    When I pointed out that nothing in their licence prevents that and they're over reacting, I get blocked. Sure, you're entitled to your opinions, but throwing a tantrum when it doesn't go your way? Meh.

  12. @trashheap
    If it's a fork and the license terms allow forking then that's their business. You have set the AI policy for contributions to #HaikuOS, not other projects.

    MIT doesn't require upstreaming.
    They just can't call it HaikuOS.

    If you don't want people to fork then that should be in the license.
    No need for pitchforks.

  13. Pluto is a native C++ client for #HaikuOS that brings AI assistance and LLMs right to your desktop via API keys (Anthropic, OpenAI, and compatible endpoints). No Electron, no web runtime—just pure native responsiveness.

    ✨ Highlights:
    • Lightweight native UI (Interface Kit)
    • Multi-LLM provider support
    • Interacts with #MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers like Pippo for extended tools & context
