This is an awesome community. A person wrote a FORTRAN program on our Systems Concepts SC40 and wrote a file asking for help. Someone responded to their plea and helped them out. We hope they got their message in a bottle back! #community#retrocomputing#fortran#vintagecomputing

@Mastodon@mellifluousbox@Gargron If #ActivityPub integrated #OpenStreetMap it would be an huge benefit to the #opensource#community 🌍🌎. Imagine wanting to see a place on openstreetmap and user photos appear (like google earth) or geolocate a photo or video on socials that supports ActivityPub. The possibilities are huge and would involve more people.

For this #ThankYouTuesday, I want to express my gratitude to SDF.org.
This long-standing community, thriving and healthy, is built on #NetBSD.
Many years ago (I’d have to dig through old emails, but it’s definitely over 20 years), I reached out to them for advice on setting up a public access server (which I ended up not doing). They were incredibly kind and provided me with a wealth of information. They are also present in the Fediverse - @SDF - showing that they are always keeping up with the times and looking toward the future.
Just christened and licensed ‘truly’, a DEC Alpha 500au with the same non-commercial kit we got nearly 25 years when we switched to DEC Alpha! Welcome truly to SDF Vintage Systems! ‘ssh menu@tty.sdf.org’
