FujiNet helps #retrocomputing and #retrogaming software development. Do cross-development on your PC. Use the FujiNet to load the result over the network. Even on a #Commodore #Vic20.

Not that I'm anyone, but, it breaks my heart to see the Linux community, with whom I have spent my time and energy for decades, unable to stop fighting with each other, and for the veracity of that fighting to continually increase, while corporate interests just gobble it up.

A big thank you to those who donate hardware to #FujiNet (An Internet adapter) for new computer and gaming console bring-ups. You are a huge help. (p.s. if FujiNet doesn't exist for your favorite system yet, hardware donation is one way you can help.).
