Is that available somewhere? Maybe as a blog post on how you set this up?

I have it on Github. https://github.com/michaeldhopkins/safe-chains

All of the commands and flags are listed here. https://github.com/michaeldhopkins/safe-chains/blob/main/COM...

An AppImage installer (Go) https://www.splitbrain.org/blog/2026-01/20-appy_an_appimage_...

All three just this month. Each of them took me several hours, because they're not vibe coded but carefully reviewed and refined until I was reasonably happy with the resulting code. Could I have written them myself? Sure. Would I ever have started without claude? Hell no.

A pity. It's obvious what the "latest" would be, but what is the best? How is that decided?

Same idea, maybe with a bit more focus on RSS

Offtopic: several of the embedded Bluesky posts at the end of the article show "The author of the quoted post has requested their posts not be displayed on external sites." Seems not to phase the PC Gamer "journalists".

It's faze, not phase. It's a common mistake.

[0] is a good article about this; not least that this has been happening since at least 1889 (to the point where I'd say we could now probably consider it a valid alternate spelling.)

[0] https://itre.cis.upenn.edu/~myl/languagelog/archives/001166.... (no, I've no idea why they're behind the wrong subdomain certificate)

Because they don't really live on that server any more. The correct URL for the languagelog archives is https://languagelog.ldc.upenn.edu/~myl/languagelog/archives/..., but none of the links will keep you on that domain.

These are quote-posts; the quote-post isn't protected but the quoted-post is. Bad choice by whoever wrote the article (in fairness the default Bluesky interface doesn't make this particularly clear), but nothing is being displayed that shouldn't be displayed.

Looks to me like it's the quoted post that's not to be displayed, not the post itself.

I wish there were any SBCs under 10 bucks. Remember the promise of the RPi Zero being 5$? That promise never came true.

It was, but for a very restricted number of users. For like 2 years people hoped to get a RPi Zero at $5 and as a result didn't buy boards by the competition (OrangePi, NanoPi, etc) which were becoming really good and cheap, although not at that price, if memory serves the NanoPi Duo (first model) was around $12. That move was the reason that pushed me to abandon the RPi for other brands and never look back.

Unfortunately it seems not to have any wireless connectivity.

Correct. They do have one, more expensive, with wireless: https://www.luckfox.com/Mini-PC/Luckfox-Pico-Zero?sort=p.pri...

I was in the same boat and built my own commenting system. It has an importer for disqus (so you don't lose your old comments) and also imports Mastodon replies.
