Ubuntu is my daily driver but I'm thinking of setting this up on my never used Raspberry PI -- anyone using it? How tough do you think it will be as a first project?

    chmod +x ./install.sh 
    ./install.sh
    
    

    Hmm usually not a secure practice to do this

      What’s the alternative to doing this? Is it safer to read the script first and then execute it as

      sh ./install.sh?

        Read the official docs to build from source.

      And if you don’t listen to LUP, you should really listen to LUP. And all the other Jupiter podcasts.

    Brings back memories of running “The Upper Room BBS” and “007 BBS” as a teenager in the late 80’s as a SYSOP. Those were fond memories, of having someone dial into your computer and making online friends from across the country sometimes.

    I think now though, you can just Telnet into different BBS’s still.

    Looks like a pretty straightforward install! And a fun project to have a personal message space with friends. It includes the ability to launch gameoso you could maybe set it up as a personal lobby for gaming buddies.

      I’m ready to do something lower tech — retro.

      I’m a big fan of this old BBS game called Space Trader — I loved it. Hoping to get one going.

    As long as you follow the instructions you should be okay.

      Thank you — seems like a nice place to start to move beyond starting a browser.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
