Damn, I should emulate #IRIX just for the sake of it, but it’s kinda hard to not associate that OS with someone who was a jerk to me :’(
I thought I'd go big, with the SGI Octane from the swap meet, for my only scheduled stream next week. Will I be able to get my Octane to boot from a Raspberry Pi? We'll find out next Tuesday, August 8 starting at 8PM EDT. https://youtube.com/live/V2K5GanjCSs?feature=share #sgi #sgioctane #irix #byetooth

@keithzg @kpeace @aral My sweet summer child, even in the pre-1.0 betas #Netscape was on #Windows, #Mac, and a panoply of #Unix platforms (#DEC #Tru64 (then called OSF/1 AXP), #HPUX, #SGI #IRIX, IBM #AIX, #SunOS, Sun #Solaris, #BSDI, and #Linux): http://home.mcom.com/archives/
It wasn’t “ported.”

@stefano I grew up with #Unix and had my first own experiences in the 1980s with #MINIX on an ATARI ST, #SINIX (Siemens #Unix derivat), and with #HPUX, #Solaris and #IRIX at the university.
#FreeBSD is my favourite #BSD (server) OS. I use it mainly because of its versatility. My use cases are firewalls, containerisation via #jails and VMs via #bhyve.
As desktop and mobile OSes I use the Apple #Unix derivates.

What I've been working on this afternoon :) I have a modem being passed through to SoftWindows on #irix onto #Windows95 connected to Level 23 at a whopping 300 bps because dialup over VoIP is kinda flaky

That will be a fun project: #IRIX community proposes to reverse engineer the last 32 bit IRIX kernel: https://www.osnews.com/story/136178/irix-community-proposes-to-reverse-engineer-the-last-32-bit-irix-kernel/
I have been working with IRIX as a student worker back in times. Still remember the 3DWM desktop environment! AFAIK #xfs FS originated in IRIX.
#Minecraft* in #IRIX? It's more likely than you think!
Thank you to Joshyfishy22 on Github for porting #ClassiCube to IRIX.
*Yeah okay it's not quite Minecraft. :P

Nice piece from @ernie on the attempt to revive #SGI #Irix https://tedium.co/2023/05/27/sgi-irix-revival-efforts/
Published a little early because it’s ready and whatever: My latest @tedium highlights a just-announced effort to revive #IRIX, the iconic #SGI operating system, in the modern day.
Talked to the owner of Irix Network for this one: https://tedium.co/2018/10/04/sgi-collector-history/
Installed midikeys and the midi software synthesizer on the Octane2 🎹 🕺#IRIX
'Bad Apple' for #IRIX can now be downloaded for your viewing pleasure. #DemoScene

Man flash animators would've loved the bad apple intro back in the day.
In the late ninties I had a flash animation of spiderman dancing. I recall it was made up of small animated colored triangles. No idea where I got it or who created it.
Here's a first preview of 'Bad Apple' running on #IRIX, SiliconGraphics Tezro 😎
Uses OpenGL for rendering, that's why gr_osview shows no CPU load. Still needs fine tuning and audio is not yet included in this single executable binary. Compiled with MIPSpro.
