Swung by Scan HQ yesterday and loved that they had a framed old pricelist on the desk in reception. I used to know these like the back of my hand.

Love Links 386 Pro, still have boxed copies of the game itself plus a bunch of courses! Watching how fast a course renders was always a great benchmark for a new machine.

btop is fancier than htop but really I don't know if there's something that shows off its features since there aren't that many 😅 The focus is mainly on performance, correctness and also feeling platform-native which it nails on all counts.

Great to see Ghostty (ghostty.org) hit 1.0 and finally be public. I've been on the beta since October 2023 and it's been a privilege to watch it evolve. And in a stroke of terminal serendipity, Berkeley Mono V2 was released today too - the Semi Condensed version is :chefs-kiss:
