The latest #Debian#Gnu/Hurd OS, as I ran it tonight. Very unstable and buggy, but fun to see. It is able to run #XFce at 200 MBs of RAM (Debian #Linux does so at ~800 MB).
#Beerware : La mejor licencia de #SoftwareLibre hasta ahora. Por lo menos te pueden invitar a una birra!
Me pregunto si debería cambiar la GPL de #GNU Health a esta 😜 #HappyHacking

Just tried compiling Wari, a game written in #Psion OO C. The project uses #Borland Make 3.6.
Got it to compile first time with my SIBO SDK setup - all good!
However... Borland Make uses 16-bit DPMI, and its extender won't load 32-bit DPMI binaries. If I pre-load the 32-bit extender, it won't load 16-bit DPMI binaries, so Make won't run!
TL;DR: I can't use the new #ctran with Borland Make 3.6.
Looks like I'll be converting that Makefile to GNU Make or a #TopSpeed project.
Modifying the old #Borland makefile to work with #GNU make went well! It mostly required replacing double-spaces with tabs, escaping backslashes, and switching the wildcard syntax to something more modern.
As a result, Wari now compiles on the #Psion SIBO C SDK with GNU Make for DOS! I wonder if the developer would appreciate a pull request?
So... Does it compile with my new version of #ctran? Well...

What is your favourite #GUI#Podcast client on #GNU#Linux ? (Asking so I can have a look at some and have better recommendations for friends without #Android).

(neo)’liberal’ licenses like MIT and BSD that enable corporations to partake of the free labour of others
implying that the #GPL / #AGPL doesn't let corps partake in the free labor of others too> and enclose the commons
Your "open commons" is worthless if it's effectively still proprietary. Case in point: #Mastodon's #ActivityPub extensions that pretty much everybody else have to support (Mastodon is AGPL, and it's not realistic to implement ActivityPub strictly to the spec and expect it to be compatible with Mastodon). Or GNUisms (implemented by #GNU software which are GPL) that #BSD userlands are forced to support. Or #Matrix where there's basically only one server implementation that is usable (#Synapse whichis AGPL). I could go on and on.
