The beginning of my third blogging year was dedicated mostly to the E5 distribution experiment. After that follows articles on various topics: Licenses, RISC-V hardware, the incident known as "shell shock" and more on the light-weight side of Linux. I also published my first kind of "political" article despite never wanting to do that on a tech blog - but when there's danger to the freedom on the net I surely had to make a stand for sanity, didn't I?
An interview with Georg Potthast about DOS, Linux, FLTK and his projects like Nanolinux and NetRider.
This post is about Nanolinux, a tiny TinyCore-based Linux distribution with the Nano-X windowing system and FLTK.
Just like the title suggests this post is about complexity and simplicity in software. It also touches on the "suckless" principles.
A post about a topic that simply suggested itself: The so-called "shell shock" series of bugs in the bash shell.
This post is about an exciting new CPU ISA: RISC-V!
This post is about three unbelievable events which show just how much freedom on the net is in danger.
This post is the first part of an introduction into the world of software licenses.
This post puts things straight: TinyCore was a joke, Musl not so much. My next project was going to be a long-term one using Musl libc.
The announcement of Arch:E5 becoming a musl-based distro and changing the kernel to TinyCore configuration. Mind the date of this April post!
More repositories were added to the E5 project. This post is about them as well as fixes and updates.
That article provides an explanation of what the newly published repositories have to offer.
This post introduces the "skel" repository of the Arch:E5 distribution experiment project
