Friday night.
It's raining.
The phone is silent.
The SBC is quietly munching data.

Everything is fine.

@h3artbl33d@exquisite.social that enthusiasm can be read inside your eyes. Even my wife told me that your eyes are full of energy and joyful. So it wasn’t just my impression.

@h3artbl33d@exquisite.social wise words. If we will keep fostering that spirit, we’ll always enjoy life with enthusiasm.

Playing with an old toy and a new toy.
I’m still like a kid, but with different toys.

@uriel@x.keinpfusch.net exactly! That's the idea. Some tiers: 1) box only 2) box and sd card for your platform (but must be one of the platforms I already have, so I can test it).

The A/B solution I've implemented is interesting, as NetBSD lacks it natively. But it's the only way to assure safe remote upgrades.

@uriel@x.keinpfusch.net yes, that's the backup plan.

@uriel@x.keinpfusch.net I have had already implemented an A/B solution powered by NetBSD and have the entire littleMesh infrastructure ready for this. I've had to remove the clear mentions of it from the code before the first release. There's one big stopper at the moment: the shortage/high prices of those SBC devices.

@uriel@x.keinpfusch.net exactly, I'm starting to consider this idea. And it would fund the project.

@docwhozee@xyzzy.cafe the team worked hard on this, trying to minimise the write operations.

A Raspberry Pi Zero W inside a custom 3D-printed beige case, featuring a raised littleFedi logo and pencil icon on the lid. The case has rounded corners, a fitted removable cover, and two rectangular openings for the Raspberry Pi’s ports. It rests on a gray desk, with the 3D printing layer lines subtly visible on its surface.

@greylinux@mylittlefedi.capella-ember.uk maybe not patent pending, but it could be an idea to fund the littleFedi project: I could ship those for the most common SBCs

@xiaotuolu@coffee-world.mesh.yrabbit.cyou I'll check, but this is currently mounted on a spare RPI0W, as I'm still optimising the project

Today, a friend sold me his "old" 3D printer, and a whole new world opened up to me.
And yes, my instance just got a little prettier.

@steveintransit@mastodon.social Sure. But this is a part of the test. How long can a SD card survive when being used as a littleFedi db?

Even With All That Mess

Bologna, 2003. A messy room, a graduation approaching, a FreeBSD Handbook gone missing. Twenty-three years later, I look back.

@82mhz@mastodon.bsd.cafe yes, totally appropriate. Thank you for sharing it!

Listening to the magic sound of the rain…
