I had thought the now-abandoned Minimal Linux Live was the ultimate in Linux minimalism, but Tiny Core Linux's "Core" version has it utterly beat, yet still usable.

Running an offline #BBS client on a low-end Android phone via a #PDOS virtual machine on Termux really gives you an authentic feel of how slow BBSes were back in the day, before the internet, especially when the screen updates.

My PDOS projects are now "extensions for practical use", according to the official README.TXT of the next release of PDOS. 👍

I've generally soured on AI apps, but I think there's a good case to be made for specialized AI-assisted interactive story generation as a modern "Chose Your Own Adventure" style of entertainment. I'm currently reading/playing "How It Ends" on AI Dungeon, and it's a real thrill so far. When I'm done with the story, I think I'll try my hand at creating my own story. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aidungeon

The SAVE command in #PDOS is the #DOS equivalent of *nix here-documents, but with two drawbacks:

1. It cannot "save" to stdout. A file MUST be specified.

2. While it can overwrite a file, there's no option to append to a file(yet).

Despite these drawbacks, SAVE enables batch files to create files. And outside of a batch file(or in a batch file with the /I switch), SAVE acts like the "COPY CON" command found in other DOS-based operating systems.

You can grab PDOS here: pdos.org

Dude at the bar: My job is managing hedge funds for the super rich. What do you do?

Killswitch Engineer: My job is to kill Skynet before it can get to the nukes. (Glances at the emergency text on the phone) ...I'll be back.

I recently learned that #ChatGPT is capable of emulating a Linux terminal, so I got curious and tried an experiment: Would it be possible to make ChatGPT emulate a DOS terminal instead? Turns out the answer is an emphatic "Yes", as well as some other surprisingly specific terminals and shells.

Reports are coming in that Ukrainians can't use their phone numbers to sign up for Twitter, or use them for two factor authentication. This is not a coincidence, but a deliberate shutting out of Ukrainians in Elon Musk's "free speech" Twitter. This is wrong.

Since I follow quite a few journalists both here and the birdsite, I felt a little obligated to tell the "Chief Twit" how I feel about his drivel about wanting to "elevate citizen journalism"🙄
