Granted that's just the "core" system: with only #linux, #toybox and #dropbear as #ssh client...
Nothing else...
It can barely get on #Ethernet and #SSH to #IPv4-reachable hosts.
Not much more.
So it'll turn your #i486 and up into a SSH-Terminal not dissimilar from classic terminals like the #VT320...

@whitekiba @vwestlife oir maybe I want something as instant as the #DEC #VT320...

@bigzaphod cuz I don't have space for a #VT320...

@josephholsten Personally I think "RJ-50" / #10p10c should've become the standard, if not 9600/8/N/1 over 6p6c MMJ so one can plug a #VT320 directly into it!

@marcel @MindPersephone do you want to use a #VT320 for that?

:fediverse: Now that there are so many people here, maybe there's a chance:
π₯οΈ In the 1990s, I used a #MicroVAX II with a #DEC #VT320 #terminal like the one shown here, but with an original black plastic case for both the monitor (white monochrome) and keyboard as sold new by the vendor (Evans & Sutherland).
π Has anyone ever come across one of these with the black case? Surely some of these rare models were saved from the landfill.

Some #desk setups are hyper modern. Mine is a simple wooden desk supporting a #VT320 mated to a #RaspberryPi.
My challenge to use my #vt320 as my main computer (besides phone) for all of September begins tomorrow!
Suggestions for a tag?
I'm challenging myself to use my #vt320 terminal as my main computer (excluding my phone) for all of September.
Should i write blog posts weekly? Or as one big post at the end of the month? Any ideas?
#simpleseptember: I'm going to use a #VT320 terminal as my primary computer for all of September. Development, entertainment, gaming, research, blogging, and more.
I will document my experience.
I will use my phone, still.
I don't collect vintage tech... I merely accumulate #retrocomputing gear. It turns out I have 9 CRTs in my small retro room. And no Macs.
I think about two of them are CRT monitors (monochrome, naturally). One is a telly. Or maybe two. And one is an oscilloscope. One's a Minitel. One's an #amstrad #pcw ... there might be a #vectrex in there. There's a #vt320 somewhere too.
Oh, yes, and there is a colour CRT monitor too.
