Tonight was awesome. Filmed this before the crowds arrived to the opening at NCM Hawthorn. Seeing the CM-2 transformed from wreckage to operational was incredible given the short timeframe!
A bit over a month ago, I created a tool to practice Linux - ShellGym. The tool is good on its own, and you can run it on any Linux machine. But it works best when combined with disposable VMs and spaced repetition.
Today, I'm happy to share the very first Shell Gym on iximiuz Labs:
> Meet the Linux Shell

It's a good match if you're only getting started with the Linux command line. The gym contains over 20 simple exercises, and you can try it right in your browser - via a web terminal connected to a real Ubuntu VM.
And since it's natively integrated with the rest of the platform, an attempted gym becomes part of your Daily Practice, and iximiuz Labs will be happy to remind you to repeat the exercise in 1, 3, 7, 14, and 30 days - until the hands-on skills really stick.
Happy hacking!
"I'm doing a (free) operating system (just a hobby, won't be big and professional like gnu)..."
On August 25, 1991, a 21-year-old student sent a message to a Usenet newsgroup. He thought he was just building something fun for himself.
35 years later, that "hobby" is the backbone of global technology:
🚀 Powering helicopters in space with NASA
☁️ Running the global cloud and 100% of the world’s supercomputers
📱 Connecting billions of people
🎮 Redefining the future of handheld gaming
What started as one student's side project became the greatest collaborative technology movement in history. Thank you to every maintainer, contributor, and advocate who made it possible.
Happy 35th Birthday, Linux. Here’s to the power of open source and the next 35 years of building together.

On this day in 1990, the Hubble Space Telescope was placed in orbit from Space Shuttle Discovery, the day after it launched. This image was captured as Hubble was suspended above Discovery's cargo bay.
adhd executive dysfunction sucks because I'm just sitting there and my brain is like
YOU ARE WASTING TIME YOU ARE WASTING TIME YOU ARE WASTING TIME YOU ARE WASTING TIME YOU ARE WASTING TIME YOU ARE WASTING TIME YOU ARE WASTING TIME YOU ARE WASTING TIME YOU ARE WASTING
no work done no rest gained. literally no point of this at all.
Hello, Moon. It’s great to be back.
Here’s a taste of what the Artemis II astronauts photographed during their flight around the Moon. Check out more photos from the mission: https://t.co/rzM1P0QbOl
This is the carnage on vinyl records when they are stored without an inner sleeve directly on a vinyl outer sleeve (the actual cover was never found)...
