  1. Solaris’ turnstiles

    Although Solaris is now mostly defunct, its influence remains substantial; technologies pioneered by Solaris can still be found across a wide range of software

    A lot of Solaris' inventions have been described and talked about ad nauseam (such as the Slab Allocator), but one I rarely see discussed is its use of turnstiles.

    Despite being relatively obscure, the idea has quietly spread far be

  3. Successfully ported the complete #LLVM stack (version 19.1.7, including llvm's binutils, clang, ldd) to #Solaris 11 Express (snv_151a) #SPARC. This build of #Solaris works on #SPARC machines that Solaris 11 GA (and later) do not support (example: sun4u workstations and servers), as well as machines that #Illumos does not support completely. This may allow for #Zig and #Rust to be ported to this version of Solaris on SPARC. Complete source archives, build instructions, and signed binaries in SVR4 package format (and soon, IPS) will be available for download. #Solaris #SPARC #retrocomputing #Illumos #Sunmicrosystems

  4. Fuck, a #Sun Ultra 25 for next to nothing, but pickup only. On the other side of Finland, literally. Damn.

  6. Selaimen kirjanmerkeistä pääsee lopulta kerrattavaksi Tarkovskin 1972 lyhyt kooste (2:47) "aurinko-jäästä" Stanislaw Lemin 1961 kirjan pohjalta Mosfilmiltä,

    Kirjan ja muita filmiversioita oletettavasti kokeneena ei oikein tiedä, mitä niistä kulloinkin koettaa kokea, ja mitä oma mielikuvitus kurkottelee. Jotenkin tykkään tällaisesta, jopa enemmän kuin inhoan valmiiksi tulkittuja/selitettyjä ja pakettiin laitettuja "elämyksiä".

    Ei ole kovin mones elokuva kuluneena vuonna, joten suotakoon.
