If you're running forgejo you can setup mirrors [1].

Mine syncs a few repos to github to make them public, and planning to add Codeberg in as well ala POSSE [2].

I mean, more around the reluctance to publish any more code publicly since it just gets sucked up by companies to train their models.

Fluxbox has tabs and is a stacking window manager.

I miss this too, and sort of get it on airplanes where I almost never use my seat back screen and end up watching someone else's instead (yes there's no sound).

I chalk it up to overwhelming choices. Sometimes I just want to watch something but don't want to go through dozens of options and having decision anxiety.

Bonus is sometimes I discover something I never thought I would have liked.

This is by far the biggest annoyance with modern TV for me. If I've already decided on something I want to watch, it's obviously great to just be able to navigate to it and put it on on my schedule, to pause it, have no ads, etc.

But sometimes, for better or worse, I just want to plunk down on the couch and turn my brain off, and if I'm in that mode the last thing I want to do is try to find something worth watching on my own steam.

Like, Youtube is great! Yeah, there's a ton of crap, but there's so much on there that would entertain me and be a guilt-free, even edifying use of me time. But having to choose something new every 10-20 minutes? Actively managing a queue while watching stuff? That's - pardon my French - for the birds.


Started vibe coding a more modern Telnet client for 68k Macintosh systems running System 6 last week, and within a couple of days have a fully working terminal emulator with VT100, VT220, xterm, glyph/emoji support, and dark/light mode.

It's mainly for me to use but is entirely functional an real hardware.


Check out Claude Code Team Orchestration [1].

Set an env var and ask to create a team. If you're running in tmux it will take over the session and spawn multiple agents all coordinated through a "manager" agent. Recommend running it sandboxed with skip-dangerous-permissions otherwise it's endless approvals

Churns through tokens extremely quickly, so be mindful of your plan/budget.

Very cool, we have some Korean Pokemon cards that this would work great on. Are you planning to support other languages?


It's for personal use, and I wouldn't call it great software, but I used Claude Code Teams in parallel to create a Fluxbox-compatible window compositor for Wayland [1].

Overall effort was a few days of agentic vibe-coding over a period of about 3 weeks. Would have been faster, but the parallel agents burn though tokens extremely quickly and hit Max plan limits in under an hour.

This is really cool. Out of curiosity did you know how to do this sort of programming prior to LLMs?


Not really, most of my programming experience is for devops/sysadmin scripts with shell/perl. I can read python/ruby from supporting application teams, but never programmed a large project or application with it myself. Last I used C was 25 years ago in some college courses and was never very good with it.


Pretty cool!


Lynx supports gopher [0] and check out Bombadillo [1], it's a stripped down "small web" (gopher, gemini, finger) only terminal browser.

Gopher is sort of like Latin, it's a dead protocol, but is still useful.

This eerily feels like speed running Eternal September.
