@jutty ah, neat. I run freebsd on my daily driver laptop. It actually works pretty well. Wifi works, graphics works, audio, etc.
Power management even.. sometimes works!
In terms of things I think are most valuable; thunnderbolt, and the more advanced power management things (like suspend to disk). Other than that it is just to get things supported SOONER (as in sooner to tech being released)
@jutty wait... what? deets?
@lattera well, that is pretty obnoxious; I don't even have those files on a checkout, so I cannot even build by default now; I wonder if my tree even "works" with this merge now
@stefano saw you gave a presentation at eurobsdcon. And on a topic that is close and passionate to me (data ownership).
Didn’t realize how influential you were in the community; definitely honored that I got your followback! 🙂

Last talk today: @stefano making important points about why to use BSD on the server.

@lattera wow.. that is a lot of updates

@LilahTovMoon I would say it also implies the existence if ViQueens (which sounds pretty cool!) and EmaKings (and respectfully I'd suggest changing the spelling to EmaQueens).. which also sounds pretty cool!
@scanlime Looks lemmings-esque?
@phen314 ah; 2 imposters
@phen314 vote on 7?
Just kicked the hornets nest a bit with 3 Phabricator reviews that haven't moved in months. #FreeBSD 😡
@chuck I think this is almost certainly impossible at that level; for example you could binary search to extract data; but pure calculation, I think could be achieved with the right system; and you don't need many basic operations to then be able to do 'everything' that is closed form.
