Kick them out along with Twitter.

This is not an open source release of the firmware (or app), only a documentation of the APIs the speakers support.

Propaganda. Flagged.

DSP56k emulation has come a long way - not only in this great project, there are also working DSP56001 emulations in the Hatari Atari Falcon and Previous NeXT emulators now.

Well, the domain name for the project is definitely great! :)

Just slop spam.

Effing spammer.

"“My goal is to eliminate every line of C and C++ from Microsoft by 2030,” Microsoft Distinguished Engineer Galen Hunt writes in a post on LinkedIn. “Our strategy is to combine AI and Algorithms to rewrite Microsoft’s largest codebases"

What can go wrong? Yikes...

Ugh, stupid drivel...

One more thing. The app seems to be compiled for macOS >= 26.0 according to Info.plist, but your web page indicates "Requires macOS 12 or higher". So I think there's something wrong with your build settings.

First - a new, lightweight PDF viewer for macOS is highly welcome, since Preview.app has turned into a slow, buggy mess. So thanks a lot for working on this!

However, the whole download experience for PageFlow is more than discouraging with the gumroad forms that include a suggested price and tip fields instead of directly offering the download.

Also, you advertise the application as being open source with no single link provided. Is the source available somewhere already?

Beware, this tries to download about 1.2 GB of "AI models" to your browser cache. I have no idea what this crap is supposed to do. Flagged.

Thanks, it seems I was confused by ARM3 (the implementation) and ARMv3 (the architecture, but not the one of the ARM3 implementation) once more. Yikes... this is quite a chaos.

That will teach a whole generation of young hackers how to circumvent this...

A machine with 96 GB RAM for $2k seems to be a bargain right now…

It's high time for this – http://ban-x-in.eu

The linked web page is quite outdated, this one is much more recent: https://previous.unixdude.net

Well, I didn't miss him...

I just tested the build. It seems that the NetBSD build tries to compile for armv4 (which, as on Linux, means StrongARM only).

When trying to specify -a earm (which should imply ARM v3) instead of the default -a earmv4 to build.sh (./build.sh list-arch gives the supported architectures), the script complains that "MACHINE_ARCH 'earm' does not support MACHINE 'acorn32'".

So it seems there's more work to be done for the armv3 machines, sorry...

Update: Early Acorn machines with ARM2 and ARM3 processors were supported by NetBSD/acorn26 (see https://www.netbsd.org/ports/acorn32/faq.html). This is a bit strange, since IIRC ARMv3 got rid of the 26 bit PC mode.

Unfortunately, support for this port ended back in 2018 with NetBSD 8.0 and the acorn26 supported platform list doesn't include the ARM710 RiscPC, so it might also be significantly more difficult to get NetBSD to work on your machine...

A lot of the problems encountered here seem to be due to bit rot, unavailable archives and these were, from my experience, not too uncommon for relatively rare Linux platforms like the RISC PC even more than 20 years ago.

RISC PC systems are still a supported (tier 2) platform in NetBSD. You should be able to cross-compile the whole system including X11 from any Linux or NetBSD host (I did this last week for the next68k port) and the developers would certainly be happy about feedback before the 11.0 release is published. So this might be worth giving a try.

Not everything is working in NetBSD all the time. When testing the “previous” NeXT emulator, we faced some nasty regressions last year that prevented NetBSD 10 (and, as we found out, every release after 5.2.3!) to run on next68k, but things were fixed eventually thanks to the nice and friendly next 68k platform maintainer!

So the Vatican no longer prescribes Latin as first official language (https://thecatholicherald.com/article/vatican-ends-routine-u...) but now we get Latin C libraries?

I definitely didn't expect to see such a project, but this is a refreshingly (positively) crazy thing in the age of AI slop...

"China’s Tsinghua University is outperforming U.S. Ivy Leagues in generating AI-related patents and top-cited research papers"... generated by LLMs? :)

US soldiers are not given access to German food banks. The food banks are overcrowded already and you need to prove you require their support to gain access.

The university that only does right-wing propaganda and indoctrination but no science at all? What a great cause…

I wonder if anyone ever used the Z80 Softcard or one of its many clones to run something different than CP/M?

Raymond Chen’s blog posts are one of the best things coming out of Microsoft.

As a Unix person for decades, for me it’s great to see his incredibly experienced and insightful view on software development in general and specifically OS development at Microsoft and to read about his experience with all these nice processor architectures no longer supported by NT.

Play stupid games, win stupid prices...

Nonsensical drivel…
