Computing to support life on Earth

Computing in the age of climate crisis is often wasteful and adds nothing useful to our real life communities. Here we try to find out how to change that.

@slrpnk.net @lemmy.sdf.org I'm trying to connect with other people who might be interested in building all the programs they use on their operating systems from source (fosstodon.org)

@permacomputing@slrpnk.net @permacomputing@lemmy.sdf.org I'm trying to connect with other people who might be interested in building all the programs they use on their operating systems from source code (sort of like a Linux From Scratch but the OS doesn't necessarily have to be Linux). I'm interested in C/C++ programs and reproducible builds. Do you know of any good ways to connect with others who have similar interests? #permacomputing #retrocomputing

@lmemsm

Im writing many system tools that cp/m never came with; less, head, tail, grep, etc.

@lmemsm @permacomputing@slrpnk.net @permacomputing@lemmy.sdf.org I started to work on something, linux based at the moment, called "simple".

@Mindiell @permacomputing@slrpnk.net @permacomputing@lemmy.sdf.org Would love to hear more about the project.

@lmemsm @permacomputing@slrpnk.net @permacomputing@lemmy.sdf.org It's still a very early bunch of theoretical ideas in french.

@Mindiell @permacomputing@slrpnk.net @permacomputing@lemmy.sdf.org Hope to here more about your "simple" project when you get it fleshed out.

Wouldn't it make sense to look into something like Guix then?

[–] lmemsm@fosstodon.org 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

@poVoq No, it would not make sense to use Guix. I found something much better.

DOS from scratch would be fun...
