Simon Ser ☛ Simon Ser: Status update, January 2024
Hi! This month has been pretty hectic due to the SourceHut network outage. We’ve all in the staff team invested a lot of time and energy to minimize the downtime as much as possible. Thankfully things have settled down now, there are still a lot of follow-up tasks to complete but with less urgency. I’m really grateful for the community’s reaction, everybody had been very understanding and supportive. Thank you!
In other SourceHut news, I’ve been working on yojo, a bridge which provides CI for Codeberg projects via builds.sr.ht. I’ve added support for pull requests, taught yojo to handle multiple manifests, added logic to automatically refresh access tokens before they expire, and fixed a bunch of bugs.

ZDNet ☛ I revived three ancient computers with ChromeOS Flex, and you can too | ZDNET
Linux is a great operating system. I've expounded its virtues for over 20 years. I was the founding senior technology editor of the now-defunct Linux Magazine in 1999. In my professional technology career, I was a principal consultant for open-source data center technology at Unisys and IBM, and until recently, I was the Linux Foundation's editorial director. So yes, I get Linux.
I have used Linux desktops, such as RedHat Workstation, CentOS, Ubuntu, Mint, Debian, and every GUI for the platform you can imagine, including GNOME, KDE, XFCE, and probably a dozen other weird forks of all of these flavors.
