@emaste yes. The multiple clang / gcc / rust installs is a thing we should really do something about. It is crazy
@a2_4am OMG YES THIS!!!
Friends of the #BSDCafe, friends on the #Fediverse, users of #DragonflyBSD, #FreeBSD, #NetBSD, #OpenBSD.
What's your favourite #BSD? And why?
Please boost!
my project is now up on the FreeBSD Foundation website!!: https://freebsdfoundation.org/project/freebsd-as-a-tier-i-cloud-init-platform/
@jbzfn@mastodon.social I do, it is pretty straightforward, just get the packages for ruby, postgres, ffmpeg, graphicsmagick, git, apache (yes, I prefer apache), (mod_passenger), a few others (all documented on the mastodon page as base requirements), then bundle install and go (this instance is proudly hosted on #FreeBSD)
@a2_4am I think dazzledraw had a similar protection system; and I am really curious how it worked since not even nibble copiers could copy the duplicate disk, made with the standard disk and a standard drive.
TIL Tom Lehrer released his entire discography, including the lyrics, to the public domain
@javmaster OMG YES; Can you share files or put it on shapeways?

GM joins Ford in adopting Tesla's "NACS"
@NanoRaptor I have one of those, up until a few years ago it was my mail server.. I figured IRIX 6.5.22f on MIPS with a custom build of (new) sendmail against gcc10 was going to be unexploitably weird!
@emaste Is PIE by default on for ports yet? If not. that.
#WozADay: Platoon
still not entirely sure who would watch Platoon (1986) and leave the theater thinking “this needs an Apple II video game adaptation”, but here we are
Are you serious?! I bought one thing ever from them directly. Ever. About 2 months ago. This is ridiculous, unacceptable. Lack of proper separation of sevices, why are they storing any credit card numbers? (What is the point of a partial? Why store it at all? PCI-DSS anyone?). Where’s any kind of credit services or notice to the credit carriers themselves, just some 8xx number to call. This is just an atrocious response. Oh and this isn’t a screenshot of the email, they sent it as a picture.
@mnemonicoverload @rlaimondas Further, rack servers have no regard for acoustic signature. Server chassis have no consumer acceptability pressure, they're in dedicated facilities and ordered by people who will never even see them. Taking them out of their element can fucking ruin your marriage.
@lattera What has shaken your ZFS beliefs? (I tend to be sympathetic here, I use ZFS semiregularly and frequently stub my toes on bugs, and non-intuitive interactions that I just never do with any other filesystem)
