The threat of new operating systems not supporting your current hardware is not new. I'm reprising my 2021 piece "The Impending Doom of Your Operating System Going to or Past 11, Versus the Lush Oasis of Open Source Systems" https://nxdomain.no/~peter/blog_wild_wild_world_of_windows.html (tracked https://bsdly.blogspot.com/2021/07/the-impending-doom-of-your-operating.html) for your holiday #windows11 #angst or simply #openbsd #freesoftware #libresoftware enjoyment.
"What if" WednesdayWhat if we could continue using the computers we have but no new computers could be built, what would that look one year, five years or even ten years later?How long would your laptop last?How long would your operating system last?How long would the internet last?#ShowerThoughts #WhatIfWednesday #FreeBSD #Linux #Computing #NetBSD #OpenBSD #OpenSource
Tomorrow I will fly to #Ireland, the first time in five years. I plan to take my #OpenBSD laptop and not much else. I might write some Go. I will avoid social media, etc. And in two weeks, I will be back in #Brazil, God willing.See you all 👋
