The original author of Vim, Bram Moolenaar, has passed away πŸ˜”

Vim is probably the tool that I have been using the longest and enjoyed the most. I've even swapped between operating systems but kept with Vim in a form or another. Thank you Bram.

Did you write code for #Psion machines in the #80s and #90s?

We're calling for you to open source your code!

I'm working with a group of enthusiasts, building a library of information about the SIBO/EPOC16 platform. Your old code could give valuable insight, as well as encourage people to write new code.

We're especially interested in old C and #x86 #assembly.

Upload it to your public repository of choice, and set it free!

Voyager 2 is temporarily out of contact with the Earth. On Friday, #NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory said that commands recently sent to the distant spacecraft inadvertently caused its antenna to point two degrees from Earth. #Voyager2 thus cannot receive commands from Earth, nor can the data it transmits be received on Earth. #JPL expects the situation to resolve in October when the spacecraft performs a pre-planned reset of its primary antenna, aligning it with Earth again.

I can't right click "save image" on kbin. I gotta give Lemmy props on that, I'm not a fan of walled gardens -- it definitely goes against the grain of and to purposely limit the user.
