Heya! How's Tuesday going? Y'all #Europeans need to be our crappy day early warning system (CDEWS), lol
@RL_Dane So far so good, for a tuesday, it's the worst day of the week. Sunday being the second worst, Monday is hard, but it's the beginning of the week, so it's okay, on Wednesday at least we're half way through the work week, thursday is almost weekend, Friday is the best day of the week, and saturday is pretty nice as well.
But for a tuesday it has not been that bad, I've been working on some weird stuff at work like always, and got my coffee in.

Ahh! I knew a guy from Telegram (IIRC) on the #LinuxForEveryone channel a few years back (IIRC) from #Suriname.
I wish I could remember his name. Too many screen names. So many great people from all over the world.
Now look how computing World π is small You have Virtual contact with me
I am the first person who started to use #Linux in my country just besides my friend Andy Lo A Foe
We then only had a #waffle #BulletinBoard system at our disposal, which could Talk only #UUCP to the computer of upr2.clu.net
The machine ran on a Dialup Line which called the #University of #PuertoRico Twice week & later Everyday
My friend Andy came to my home and saw my #Amiga #computer #A500 working flawlessly multitasking beautiful things with just a tiny candle of a #Motorola 68000 CPU a very small #Denise video chip and even smaller #FatAgnus #DMA chip and the great #Paula audio chip
He also wanted a operating system that could multitask so beautifully on his #386CPU computer with his gorgeous #387FPU math co processor
Linus Torvalds was then working on the #Linux kernel
#Linus had just released the #Linux kernel on #Usenet.
So Andy requested permission to download the #massive #sources of the kernel which he wanted to compile on his 386 computer
Β‘It took a whole week before the kernel was compiled in the first run!
On dial-up it had cost a massive sum to download that #kernel because we were dialing internationally to upr2.clu.net
@RL_Dane a #hex #editor needed to be used in order for the #boot #floppy for #Linux to be created
The #shell was also cross compiled
Otherwise you would stand nowhere after the kernel has booted
The same counted for the #userland utilities #ls #mkdir etc. Those came from #RichardStallman
The initial file system was #OpenSource #minix from #GNU #Herd
Finally #GCC was compiled natively
Then a native version of the kernel could be compiled, from Linux itself
Thank you! I got up at 5am with some groovy #Synthwave music (Feature Phone - Times Infinity - Entry [artist/album/track]) and that definitely set my mood for the day.
Could've used more sleep, but that's a problem for future me, lol
Cheers!

I'd honestly rather take a nap in the afternoon and get up at the CRAKKADAWN! (sorry, not sure why I wrote it like that, lol. i was thinking of something like a thunderbold, lol) than *not* get a jump on the day.
Needless the say, I'm not a morning person. I'm breathtakingly bad at... life, lol. XD
