Hi from #haikuOS 64-bit
глюки практически те же: чайник не крутится, сеть еле пользает, bluetooth не видим. в #WebPositive нет прозрачности и сглаживания картинок. да что там сглаживание, выделения текста не видно! разве что кнопки у #Tracker нормальные
Upd: кнопки нормальные были только в live-версии, после установки их тоже popierdoliło :(

There's still a lot of work to do, but we're getting very close to #Excel compatibility. Cell alignment and font height now match the standard 🙂 It's a shame to have so few tokens, unfortunately I have to use them sparingly 🙁 #haikuos #atomo123 #spreadsheet

i surely need to shift my focus on some computer related stuff: most of my (really limited) energy is lately being spent worrying about this or that technology being enshittified with #ai/#llm (even #linux now, the first weapon i wielded against big tech in the past)

i will try to focus my energy towards actionable steps and technologies that don't are better for the planet and me

as soon as i will have a small break from some personal stuff, i think i will try some #netbsd or #haikuOS

NOT an expert but thinking "hmmm... #HaikuOS ?"

Not sure if your Thinkpad can meet min. recommended specs:

> we recommend at least a Pentium4 with 512 MiB of RAM and 3 GiB of storage space. For compiling Haiku within itself, we recommend using at least 2 GiB of RAM.

Haiku depot search for "dungeon" on x86:

(Meanwhile, HaikuOS slouches towards 1.0... a story 23 years -- so far -- in the making.) Help needed for R1/Beta6

Alright. I am using spare bandwidth on me VPS to seed #FOSS torrents!

I have ordered 30GB of HDD space to move the files completely to it. Then I will be able to seed more.

I am interested in seeding various underrated #opensource softwares and games. This includes #BSD derivatives, other independent operating systems like #HaikuOS. As well as many open source games like SuperTuxKart, Wesnoth and Xonotic.

I also seed offline versions of Persian Wikipedia.

If you also have got some spare bandwidth and disk space, you can help other people.

https://fosstorrents.com/ They create Unofficial torrents for many open source projects. I am seeding some of their torrents. They also include many BSD derivatives and independent operating systems.

From #Kiwix library you can download offline versions of many popular websites such as #Wikipedia, #Stackoverflow and so on. You can seed Wikipedia on your own language.

Also many #Linux distros and BSD derivatives have official torrents.

I'm not the only, and definitely not the first one to (re)consider the #filesystem for #database use.

The #BeFS documentation (from #HaikuOS website) clearly states - and does that - already (2004):

> "[key/value metadata attributes] add considerable power to a file system and endow the file system with many of the features normally associated with a database."

Michael MJD published a nice video on #youtube about @haiku . Good first insight, if you are interested in #alternative #operationsystems that are different from #Linux or #BSD. It’s origins go back to #BeOS and the #BeBox in the 1990s. #RetroComputing #retro #haiku #HaikuOS #OS #AlternativeOS
