Any #StarWars fans out here looking for a new #Mastodon / #Fediverse server?

Feel free to join and bring in your friends, guildmates and enemies!

See you there!

I bear no ill will. I take you at your word that you weren't being contrary. Though even now I struggle to read your initial response any other way.

But I agree, it's better to use something that is not essentially an operating system for tiny servers.

Cray BSD was purchased from SGI for less than $10M -- and the E10K did over $1B in top-line in its first year at Sun. Pretty tough mark to beat!
OTD 1996: Sun Microsystems purchases "Business Systems Division" of Cray after SGI buys Cray. Becomes the wildly successful E10000 server line. Best acquisition ever?
