    I don&amp;#39;t know if this is a bit of a stretch but I need to find a replacement for my guestbook I can selfhost that works with docker. I currently use smartgb for my site but that&amp;#39;s not really a docker container but rather something online. I&amp;#39;ve seen a few on docker hub but wonder if someone else knows something better? #SelfHosting #Docker #WebDev #AskFedi

    Imagine if in 1980 IBM had partnered with Digital Research instead of Microsoft. Gary Kildall might become the era’s Bill Gates, CP/M could emerge as the PC standard with “CP/M Compatible” badges replacing “Windows Compatible.” GEM might be the default GUI, Gates is a typical software vendor and Microsoft Office never rules business. Would computing culture change or mostly end up the same? #AlternateHistory #TechHistory #CPM #GEM #IBM #Microsoft

    Well, I think this Packard Bell I’ve been trying to fix is a lost cause given that I found out about the capacitor plague stuff… better of just putting it back on the shelf because I don’t think it’s worth the effort trying to solder new caps on when I have no knowledge. Even if this means just tossing the motherboard as I think most other parts can be reused
