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

«From its humble beginnings as a project code-named "Oak" at Sun Microsystems to becoming a global standard for enterprise software and billions of devices, Java's journey is one of radical innovation, strategic pivots, and enduring community strength.»

RT @AravSrinivas: Auf ihrem Höhepunkt wurde Sun Microsystems auf 205 Milliarden US-Dollar geschätzt (394 Milliarden US-Dollar inflationsbereinigt). Das Unternehmen verkaufte Software für Enterprise-Server. Durch Linux, x86-Architektur und Standard-Hardware wurde das Geschäftsmodell disruptiert. Letztendlich wurde Sun an Oracle für 7,4 Milliarden US-Dollar verkauft, was einem Verlust von 96 % des Unternehmenswerts entspricht. Open-Source-Modelle, die auf lokaler Hardware laufen, könnten angesichts der aktuellen Entwicklungen einen ähnlichen Einfluss haben.

@NanoRaptor Still nostalgic for those long nights playing “Call of Solaris”, grinding raids in “World of SunCraft”, and pretending I understood the lore of “The Legend of Solaris”.
Thank you for bringing up the good memories again! 💾☀️

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

Found an SS10 with a ZX card. Seller is asking USD 700. What happened to these people? Also, as expected, NVRAM is dead, so they are asking USD 700 for a machine that needs immediate computer surgery, both AUI and TP interfaces failing internal loopbacks (prolly NVRAM, not a dead LANCE chip – its register tests are passing) and no keyboard.
So the ZX is basically worthless without a Type 4/5 keyboard and it also needs a DB13W3-capable monitor

#RetroComputing an old #SunMicrosystems buddy in New Jersey is cleaning out his basement collection of (mostly) working systems Ultra 1, Ultra 10, V210, V65X and Cobalt Cube. He says the only issue could be the drives on the V65X. Anyone want to go and get anything before they go to recycle? Happy to pass on contact info.

Seventeen years ago! I bought this multi-million dollar hoard of Sun servers from a scrap yard for $300. After testing, fixing, and swapping parts to max out some of them, I traded a couple for an SGI Onyx for the museum, a few more for parts of what eventually became my personal 16-proc Origin-2000, and kept two as compute servers for my film making.
(A maxxed-out E4000 has 14 x 400 Mhz UltraSparc II's, and 14 gig of ram (In 128meg sticks! Ha ha ha. Warm.)).

A shirt from the good old days, when corporate swag had high quality fabric with an embroidered logo. This one is a long-sleeved shirt with the Solaris logo.

Pulled out the old folio I keep next to the bed as I needed to sketch something.
Had forgotten this is an old #SunMicrosystems branded item.
Got to love the slogan:
We're the dot in .com™
It's best to not try and think about that concept too much I reckon.
