To quickly summarise a phew other oldcomputerchallengers:

I'm excited to hear ffog manage audio, since it's been a wash for
me.
But it sounds like icecasting isn't working, so ffog's show will be
as usual (Mine will be on my non-old travel laptop)

My experience has been like prahou's note; some people are barely
going to notice a change. That's ~ me, except I have no working old
audio, and I left myself both unable to handwrite and without an
electronic device to tap on for many hours, which clearly made me
go crazy (see my last phost). And I'm also using the 1981 MIT-CADR
which is pretty different when I'm in lisp.

I think everyone else is writing daily retrospectives, though I'm
going to keep going with my stream of consciousness phosting (which
is somewhat downstream of handwritten notes).

matto's phost is a nice emacs usage phost. I did the same to use
mastodon; 512M and bsd.sp are well enough to run X11 flavor gnu
emacs, at which point you're just using gnu emacs. I can't remember
using M-& myself. So I'm using X11 flavor gnu emacs to use
mastodonEl for mastodon 

...Which matches dokuja's desire for low resource workflow
discussion rather than hardware history with one strategy being;
plenty of emacs is basically unaffected. I haven't got into zmacs
major modes on ams' MIT-CADR vm (which operates with 2M of physical
memory by default). Even zmacs (1981) feels modern compared to vi
(vi(1) says ex(1)'s original version was 1977). Speaking of things
that feel unchanged.

On the other hand it's nice reading xiled's historic hardware
adventure, finding workarounds for deceased nvram in a well
seasoned machine. I will itemize my hw specs tomorrow.

I still need to -L my clock cycles via apmd(8) per solene's phost.


I ggguuesss I'm procrastinating coding a bit since it implies more
getting used to operating the MIT-CADR. And my fantastical planning
plan is fantastic in an extreme sense. It's a bit novel laying out
code not as a completely offline ASDF system, but this is a source
of new sm0l (talk) insight for me.
