Hello everybody out there using minix -

I'm doing a (free) operating system (just a hobby, won't be big and
professional like gnu) for 386(486) AT clones. This has been brewing
since april, and is starting to get ready. I'd like any feedback on
things people like/dislike in minix, as my OS resembles it somewhat
(same physical layout of the file-system (due to practical reasons)
among other things).

I've currently ported bash(1.08) and gcc(1.40), and things seem to work.
This implies that I'll get something practical within a few months, and
I'd like to know what features most people would want. Any suggestions
are welcome, but I won't promise I'll implement them :-)

PS. Yes - it's free of any minix code, and it has a multi-threaded fs.
It is NOT protable (uses 386 task switching etc), and it probably never
will support anything other than AT-harddisks, as that's all I have :-(.

You don't know what to do when everything is lie.

Did Russia shoot down a Malaysia airliner?

Did someone shoot people in Las Vegas?

Is the vaccine safe?

You don't know.

The government and media can say that there is NSA wiretapping and concentration camps, but you will be called a nutjob if you say it.

[SERIOUS PLS READ] I understand that the point of federation is precisely to avoid making accounts on multiple instances.

The problem is that instances are not 100% connected to each other so you're bound to miss out on posts that fall outside your POV of TWKN from the instance you're on.

The question is: how do you make sure you experience as much of TWKN as possible? Maybe with a minimum number of strategic accounts in different instances which, combined, offer the most complete picture of the fediverse? And, subsequently: is there a way to visualize, perhaps graphically, which instances are connected to which?

Governments couldn't silence speech so they asked big tech to do it for them, governments can't force vaccinations so they asked corporations to make them mandatory... if this isn't fascism then what is?!?

@mangeurdenuage @berkberkman @roboneko @sjw @Moon This interjection is old.

OpenWRT has almost no GNU, same for Alpine.
Yet they are Linux.

Imaggine wanting to become an actor... Training for it your entire life, getting to shape and finally, after years of hard work, you get an offer for a MAJOR movie...

And you are a race swap...

I feel so bad for these people. If they refuse, noone will ever know. If they accept, their fame will forever be marked for this.

It Just Works
