Hard to imagine a better Balkan Pride than the one that starts with riding the Olimpik train on the Una railroad in Bosnia before celebrating at the 25th Zagreb Pride 🏳️‍🌈
@irix Solaris I think. It's currently running Solaris 8 but just downloaded Solaris 10 and I think a fresh install is a good idea.
Ahh. I just needed to remove the video card with the funky 13w3 connector! Works fine now.
Latest retro acquisition - Picked up a Sun Ultra10. Was reasonably cheap but also very local to pickup! Had to remove the NVRAM chip uncover the battery connectors and solder in a new battery holder. But nicely documented online and a 30 min job! I cannot get video out yet but I’m sure that's a matter of time.
@vidjam @quentinsf Yeah Tapbots are superb. I use Ivory for Mastodon. Really great iOS/macOS client. Just as good as Tweetbot was.
@vidjam @quentinsf It's French school on Saturday morning and all the (mostly french) parents head out there afterwards. I think there's one in Newnham too. I've had their little cakes a few times and they were nice.
@quentinsf @vidjam Aha. Nice. I guess it's unforgivable that I’ve not been yet since I'm only 10 mins away! Just too lazy!
@vidjam @quentinsf Sounds good. I'll eat anything for brekky but the rest of the household is French so they need such things! - Currently they get their fix at Maison Clement. Is Pastime better?
@vidjam @quentinsf Is that the bakery out on the A10? Is it good? I've heard good things from many people but despite being close I've not actually got around to going yet.
@iandunt.bsky.social Absolutely no shame in the word “comic”. Some of the best pieces of literature I have read have been comics. I will reread Persepolis this weekend in her memory. Such a great comic!
