Broadly speaking, you're going to run #Linux on your #mainframe on z/VM or #KVM (living on a tiny Linux install itself on the LPAR).

z/VM has tons of knobs and is incredibly rich with features going back decades, but KVM integrates seamlessly into all the other stuff you may be using that supports KVM (all hail libvirt!). So it's always nice to read through the quarterly updates to KVM that help improve that experience http://kvmonz.blogspot.com/2023/07/kvm-in-linux-distributions-in-2q-2023.html

I think defederating Threads is a huge missed opportunity for Mastodon to grow.

Imagine interacting with their users and letting them know that: you scroll posts without ads, your timeline is in chronological order, your client doesn’t spy on you, you only see what you want and no other content is pushed to your timeline, etc…

if I was a Threads users, I would move to Mastodon as soon as I find out 🙂

I’ve recently been re-discovering an old #ereader that was cast to the back of a cupboard when I started using my Apple #ipad for books.. I’m loving the small form factor of the eReader and the awesome website which is @gutenberg_org … one of my favourite classic authors is Robert Louis Stevenson, and enjoying Kidnapped 📙- fun fact … Stevenson’s real surname was Balfour, which is the name of the main character in the book 😀
