vidak··on 28-year-old turned his college side hustle into a $1.3B startup
i don't normally log in, or comment, on hackernews--and i normally don't ever comment negatively on things i see on the internet--but how is this news?

i am sick of seeing people fawn over people striving, and succeeding, at being capitalists.

vidak··on Make Your OS Run More Lisp
CatGirl GNU/Linux attempts to push forward the cause of LISP Machines in popularity and efficacy. Its components are:

    EMACS; if it runs on EMACS, it runs on CatGirl GNU/Linux.

    X11;

    EXWM.

    The GUIX System.
vidak··on I Went Ahead and Did This

vidak··on Review of Pinephone PostmarketOS CE
Hello! I purchased a Pinephone, which was delivered in early September. It is the postmarketOS Community Edition model.

Please find a link to a HTTP proxy to my gemini capsule where I have reviewed my experiences with the phone. I have now been able to make it my daily driver phone, after doing a little distro hopping of the different Linuxes available for the phone.

I hope you find this gemlog useful (:
