In episode 21 of Linux Matters 🐧🎙️ I shared four "fetchers": fastfetch, cpufetch, ramfetch, and onefetch.
Here's one more "fetcher" I found yesterday; ipfetch, a Neofetch-like tool that can look up IPs 🌐
It won't make it to an episode of @npub12qh…k48x, so I thought I'd share it here. Give EP21 a listen 👂️ to learn about the other fetchers 👇️

Quickemu is a project I started to "quickly create and run optimised Windows, macOS and Linux virtual machines" 🧑‍💻
Quickemu 4.9.6 and Quickgui 1.2.10 have both just been released ✨ rolling up a number of fixes 🐛 and improvements 💪
You can find out more and get the downloads 📦️ PPA 🟠 or Nix flakes ❄️ here:

Thanks for listening Kev 😃 I'm delighted to hear you're enjoying Linux Matters 🐧🎙️
I have a MacBook Air M2, mostly for travelling due to the epic battery endurance 🔋 With Nix, Home Manager, and nix-darwin on macOS, it feels a lot like "Linux" just with a different desktop environment.
I do dual boot it with NixOS for Apple Silicon. What the @npub15zx…t7sv team have accomplished is astonishing, and when your M1 ages out something you can use to extend its useful life 👍️
