I'd do a screenshot, but there's no screenshot app, or git.. or vim... or wget.. or ssh. 😕
So.. I think the barn swallow that wants to make a nest over our front door has won this round.
The plastic snake worked for about a week. #birds
MikroTik CRS305 for your backbone. QNAP QSW-308S for your desk. 10Gbps SFP+ transceivers + Cat 6 for any long runs, cheap SFP+ DAC cables for short runs.
under $600 and you too could have 1.1 GiB/s LAN speeds.
If you want to know real joy... really touch the sky. Invest in a 10Gbps network at home. There is equipment out there now to do it with a minimal cost. #networking
Oh ho ho. #gemini seems like a really neat lightweight web protocol. http://gemini.circumlunar.space
"Somewhere between gopher and http"
There's even a graphical c/sdl client named 'lagrange' that runs on #haikuos
Now on the website: last month's activity & contract report, featuring a lot of kernel fixes. https://www.haiku-os.org/blog/waddlesplash/2022-04-08_haiku_activity_contract_report_march_2022/
Just realized the about:Mozilla gag has been around for 28 years (since Netscape Navigator 2.02). http://system7.app is fun and a lot easier than pulling out my emulator and roms. #firefox
Hm. Got the buck converter off without damaging anything, but 12v is still grounded somewhere 😔
Someone linked to this bad boy on the #haiku forums. I know I don't need it.. but man my monkey brain wants it. #riscv64 https://www.clockworkpi.com/product-page/devterm-kit-r01
Many programming disappointments this week, the biggest of which is that I need to write all of #Mensago Connect in C++, including the foundation code, because the complexity is too great for me otherwise. Also, C++ development on platforms that aren't #Haiku is less than great. Not real wild about Qt Creator, either TBH.
FYI: Ukrainian students at Stanford University and MIT have created a website called Don’t Fund War ( https://www.dontfundwar.com ) which tracks a large list of companies still operating in russia and financing the war in #ukraine

Great news everyone: @haikuOS@twitter.com nightlies now have initial support for USB WiFi adapters! (Realtek devices only at present, but more should come later.) Upgrade to hrev55907+ and make sure they're plugged in before booting if you want to try it out.
