@millihertz Nice, thanks.

Emu2 is a x86 and MS-DOS emulator that runs in a Linux terminal. Launching an MS-DOS program from the Linux shell is as simple as executing emu2 myprog.exe.

It reminds me of this CP/M emulator with a similar approach. For example, to run WordStar from the Linux shell execute cpm ws.

@Tutanota Very interesting. Does it focus only on file storage or does it also provide an office suite, such as Google Docs for Google Drive?

@met That's great, thanks.

IRCv3 comes with significant usability improvements. I assume the Libera Chat @liberachat servers don't support v3 yet, right?

@pesco Indeed, for all its flaws reflowable text is the killer feature of ePub. I guess Mobi and derivatives aren't too different.

@kaveman Thanks, I didn't know about that work.

Jimmy Miller presents an approach to learn a large, unfamiliar codebase by making a code visualizer.

@Tutanota What would really help is a tool for seamlessly migrating Gmail and Google Drive data to Tuta. I'd be willing to pay for such a tool.

@OpinionatedGeek Thanks.

@cdegroot That's great, thanks.

@OpinionatedGeek Can you open the ebook with a desktop reader on Linux or other operating systems?

@pesco @davidgerard @cdegroot

@KrajciTom Spectacular.

@pesco Right, it would be better to know in advance.

@davidgerard @cdegroot

@pesco I'm wondering about the ebook at Lulu too. According to Wikipedia Lulu phased out DRM long ago:

@davidgerard @cdegroot

@davidgerard Doh, my eyes probably saw it but my brain missed.

@cdegroot

@cdegroot A great angle for telling the history of Lisp.

Is the ebook DRM-free?

@mmalc A scan would be very appreciated.

PixelUnion @pixelunion now provides a 1-click migration tool.

This European Google Photos alternative based on Immich sets the usability standard for alternatives to Big Tech platforms. Many want to migrate but don't know how to move their data. An easy import tool is the single most important thing people look for, a must have for alternative platforms.

With the release of this tool PixelUnion addressed 100% of my feedback and feature suggestions.
