I found this cool tool that I've been testing, check it out!
You can run any Linux distro inside your terminal with Distrobox. Uses Docker/Podman to create native-feeling containers with home/USB/storage sharing, GUI app + audio support, good compatibility

My kids got me one of those weird AMD BC-250 (aka PS5 APU) single board computers for Xmas. Can’t wait to play with this! It’s so odd, I love it.

Christmas day has been amazing so far, for me it's about seeing my family all happy, me and my wife seeing our boys all get along and being great bros.
Reminds me of me and me and my brother 40 years ago playing games together, nothing beats playing a good game together! 😘♥️😊

I long for the simpler computer times, there is something so cathartic about installing an OS from physical media that I absolutely love, time and time again, it never gets old.....

I picked up 3 'untested' Xbox's for £12 each, refurbishing one for my bro in law for Xmas. They're super crusty! 🤮

Today I rescued this gem from the rubbish bin. However, I'm not sure what kind of device it is. There is no model sticker or other clues. It obviously has a hard drive and a floppy disk drive, so I think it must be a PC rather than a terminal. Over the next few days, I'll take a closer look at it.

Telic-Alcatel Minitel 1B arrived in pieces, I've decided to take the hit and try to repair it. There's no way I'm shipping back to be destroyed and thrown away.
Wish me luck 🤞
