sdfpubnix

Hey everybody! 👋

Hello! The first computer I ever had was an Atari 400 with 16 KB memory and a 6502 CPU which I programmed in BASIC and later in Machine Code. Yep, I didn't have an Assembler back then. And now you all know how old I am ... oops!

I have to admit that I didn't know sdf.org before I started looking for a nice lemmy instance, but when I found you, I just had to join. What a cool project!

Also, I am pleasantly surprised that lemmy.sdf.org appears to have an empty block list. 🎵 We ain't afraid of no ghost, right?

Hello, I'm somewhat in the SDF community already, even though I rarely come up on COM or BBOARD. I'm a developer by day and I am generally very interested in anything relating to programming, AI, cognitive science, and I've recently taken some interest on bare metal programming, SoCs and RISC-V stuff.

You'll also see me involved in some stuff relating to Plan 9 and, more recently also, Golang programming for Plan 9 on ARM.

Looking forward to participating in SDF activities on Lemmy as well!

Hi everyone. I'm just a very new member in the SDF family. Very new to the Fediverse too. Peace, Love, and Unix to everyone.

Hello!

Hello world! It's good to be here!

Hello, all!

[SDF email] could you introduce yourself

Howdy. I've had an SDF shell account since 2006 at least. I can see mail in my outbox there with that date. Been dorking around with linux since the early 90s, and ran a fidonet node back then (on dos/DESQview!).

I live offgrid in a campervan with dogbeest Muffin. RIght now I am at ~8,200ft overlooking Los Alamos, NM.

and share your thoughts in regards to the Reddit migration and the Fediverse in the !sdfpubnix ?

I'd looked noncommittedly at Mastodon and Lemmy before, but had no real reason to invest the time. Before things got truly bad at Birdsite I test-drove Mastodon and liked it so much I stayed there and deleted my twitter account.

Based on that success I took another look at lemmy/kbin. Apparently the API Wars were starting but I was ignorant of them when I made a lemmy account.

I mod a couple tiny van-related subredits. So when I decided on lemmy over kbin I found my home here and started a community for people who live in cars, vans, and RVs. I am leaving the reddits subs open but with a sidebar link here. I'll probably post OC to both in the interim.

I have unsubbed from the gargantuan (2mil+) vandwellers subreddit there although I run some canned searches so I can help with niche questions in my wheelhouse. Hopefully by the end of the year I will transitioned fully from reddit to lemmy.

Hi :)

Reader, writer, musician, scholar, gamer, and hobby coder Capy reporting for duty. I'm waiting to hear back so I can donate for ARPA. I can't really afford it, but I want to support it anyways.

Hello, SDF World! I'm Jon. SDF is a beautiful oasis...

Hello, SDF.

Hello World! I just got approved today and have been getting use to how it is here and rest of the federated Lemmy. I'm an exile from Reddit and I knew of SDF for quite a while but it took the push from Reddit to come over and sign up for the ssh and Lemmy. So far I am glad to be here and am planning to make ARPA payment when I get my check.

Also if anyone has interesting suggestions or places in the federated Lemmy, let me know. I'm still getting use to here.

Hello peeps! I'm delial (/dɛlaɪəl/). I heard about SDF from a random comment on HN about 5 years ago, and I immediately fell in love. I tend to be a lurker, but I hang out on Mastodon and post occasionally.

I'm a professional software dev, and I sling code all day. C# for pay; Rust, Bash, Python, and recently Awk for fun. I have my own little homelab that I've been exploring Linux network administration with. Besides that, I watch a lot of horror movies and collect books and comics.

curl www.sdf.org/~lambalicious/helloworld_totally_safe_script.php | sudo bash

s'up everyone.

I'm lambalicious admittedly I'm a lurker both here and on the SSH side of things and only mostly visit the bboard when I remember that I like to use SSH for stuff that is not daily job. I work with computers, but they are alas not as cool as the computers from the movies I like to watch. I'm from Chile, so my English is ESL but el glorioso Español es very good. I like cats, too. I hear the internet loves cats.

When I have time for myself I develop plugins for DokuWiki and also sometimes code stuff for working with some SQLite databases. Sometimes maintain a legacy C++ library thingy. Oh and I play Nintendo games obtained via totally legit providers.

Hi I'm Willard. I've been on sdf a long time, been on mastodon.sdf..org since Before Covid.

No clue what reddit was about, this is strange and different.

trying the "connect" app as the JavaScript client seems a bit heavy for my 2017 era tablet, so now I'm doubly confused. 🤣

Hi sdfpubnix lemmy community peoples!

Just wanted to say hi...I finally created an account here to check it out. Another way for me to be differently social with people I like! Many familiar sdf operators here. Hope to see more of you around on the system, in the COM[MODE}, in the gopher underground, on smolnet, and the fedifferentlysocialverse!

Herro!

Hey everybody!

Hello :D

Hello all!

Hello, I'm saba! I've been on sdf a few years, can't remember exactly when I signed up. I'm currently a metaarpa supporter because sdf provides a lot of great services to people with similar interests to me. I've been on the mastodon.sdf.org instance since it's beginning. I signed up on lemmy.ml 3 years ago when I first heard of it and then didn't really visit it much for a couple years. With the recent reddit exodus, I started using it again. When I noticed it was getting busier, I thought it would be great if sdf hosted an instance, then I got the email about this instance! Great to be here! You can also chat with me on irc or sometimes on com if I have time and am listening to anonradio.

Hello world! Game master and general nerd here. I'm into tech and learning new things.

Hello, long time FOSS user here, I landed in SDF and the Fediverse a few weeks ago, but just noticed the hello world post. I am still adapting and finding my place, but I am VERY happy with the experience so far! Also, I find myself participating much more than in the "other" site, probably because the general feeling and tone around here is quite good and relaxed.

Refugee from reddit here, on the first day as a registered Lemmy user. I am a techie who loves cats, dark humor, nature, introversion, and much more. I have high hopes for Lemmy to dethrone and replace reddit as an online community space.

Hi Lemmiers

Long time SDF user when SDF, Hobbiton and freeshell were feeling like home.

Moderator of a nearly non existent community on Reddit, let's give this instance a try, can't be worse than Reddit 😜

Hello!

I joined the SDF a number of months back but got more involved about 2 months ago when I upgraded to a MetaARPA membership.

One of the things I just adore about the SDF is that, as a new comer, it seems to emphasize the creative, artistic and social aspects of computing rather than being yet another place for entrepreneur culture mavens to try out their new side hustle :)

I have nothing against making money, but I fell in love with computers in the 80s because they were bicycles for the mind, and I want people to remember that :)

I've been stumbling around the Boston area for close to 40 years now. I adore old computers, reading anything and everything I can get my hands on including but not limited to science fiction, urban fantasy and science/history.

It's neat that MetaARPA members get PBX extensions - it would be neat to organize a voice chat every now and then if there isn't one already!

Thank you to everyone who helps make this happen. I look forward to figuring out how I can pitch in helping to continue to make this place awesome :)

Greetings, SDF from drelcott.

Greetings everyone! I'm new to the SDF but an old UNIX fart from wayback with a fascination for the intersection of art and computing and the creative applications of technology.

Totally love the community and really appreciate all the hard work that goes into it! I hope to be able to help out as I get more familiar with the lay of the land.

I'm a devops engineer with MIT Online Learning by day and I love tinkering with old computers, gaming, and spending time with my wife and our rescue pup by night :)

Please take care and look forward to chatting with you all!

Hello world! I spend my work days logged in to some servers which if I interpret mtr correctly are just up the hill from SDF in Tukwila. I joined SDF in 2010 after watching SMJ's interview on the BBS Documentary. It's neat to be able to log in to this living UNIX system and type w and see a bunch of other people logged in doing their thing whatever that is.

I've been a Reddit user since almost the beginning - my carefully curated set of subreddits have been my favorite way to follow my interests over the years. I love old.reddit's clunkiness and information density. I'm intrigued by decentralization and federation and think it would be cool to move away from the big silos.

Greetings, programs! I'm RotaryKeyboard, freshly immigrated from the now-defunct lemmy.ninja. I'm happy to make sdf.org my new home!

Just wanted to pop in and say hello!

Well hello there, we're on the air.

Hello @SDF@lemmy.sdf.org

Hi. Already fun.

Hi all, I am an OpenBSD ports maintainer, and hopefully at some point kernel hacker
