This week's comic: The Unimaginable Lives of Earlier Generations

I realize the postwar years weren't great for everyone, but lower housing and education costs seemed to create more opportunities to build a stable life.

I am posting this from a wlroots based wayland compositor on #NetBSD 10!

It's super buggy (much of that is graphics drivers), and I'm using brutaldon+lynx, as the only working wayland app I have right now is my terminal emulator. But that took enough doing that this feels awesome.

Step 1. Pack your device

Step 2. Go home. It is that simple with the 90s portable computer.

While I am looking for work mainly in the Area of #zurich at the moment.

I am also interested in Remote work Positions.

So if you need a Rust developer that knows extensive Unix and Packaging and knows how to lead a Business/Project incl. a Team let me know

I am available as of now :)
