  1. Checking on shipments before starting the workday to see if the newly acquired (fourth) LC922 is transiting to the colo… and yes, it's true #iLoveIBM!

    Still pending OS storage decisions before supply chain:

    - remain standardized on dual S4510 / PM863a
    - alt standard w/ dual SATADOM for EFI boot handoff to dual NVMe
    - introduced new standard of dual 2TB P3608 Optanes
    - disregard OS drives and use iSCSI boot
    - other ideas… 🙇🏼‍♀️

  2. Nice, my #guix install on #ppc64le compiled the #telegram desktop client successfully today. One less docker image to take care of, yay!

  3. Most valuable thing in #ppc64le #guix for me now would be having a working #rust package

    Many packages (indirectly) got dependent on rust over time and those can't be upgraded anymore, and the list is getting larger by the day.

    The actual error is in building #mrustc and is low level enough that it is way out of my league.

  4. CW: Free software implementation of counter strike, called #freecs, is being developed using the #fteqw engine

    #ppc64 #ppc64le #counter #strike #counterstrike #freecs #fteqw #quake

    As the title says, a free software implementation fo counter strike is on the way thanks to #eukara. I’ve been testing it on a #ppc64le machine and it works without issues (source compilation is necessary, though).

    Even though freecs is on a playable state, there are a lack of servers and players.

    They have an IRC channel on freenode (#freecs).

    Please, consider giving your support to the project:

    Thank you so much for reading and spread the word! :-)
