I've got 3 in total that I am trying to get in in time for 14.1 . 2 of which have been open for > 6 months

I am very very pleased to report that I updated my Thinkpad running 14.0-R, mesa drivers version went up from 24.0.0. to 24.0.6 I can now use an Apple Studio Display with FreeBSD!

first outdoor ride of the year in the books. 24 miles and 1000 active calories!

My colo provider has planned maintenance tonight, so I took the opportunity to do what I have been meaning to do for forever; setup DNS at home as a primary for my domains with proper secondary mirroring.

Judging by the fediverse still working.. I seem to have been successful.

I did DNS (with DNSSEC, glue records, name server registration) right the first try? No. I messed something up.. I just don't know what it is yet.

Ugh, my Apple IIgs died today.. looks like PSU, fuse blown (it is an old AE enhanced PSU) opened it up (obviously, if I could tell it was the fuse), none of the components look bad. Good news is this is the part of the system I am the most capable of working on, also tons of community support out there for drop in replacements

Developer accused of unreadable code refuses to comment

@textfiles @a2_4am @burgerbecky Don't mean to place this on blast, but I saw this and thought it might be of interest to all 3 of you:

@scanlime And as is tradition, as soon as I ask, I figure it out for myself:
rfc-editor.org/ien/ien2.txt
rfc-editor.org/ien/ien26.pdf (WHERE IS PAGE 3?!)
rfc-editor.org/ien/ien28.pdf (secion 2.3)

... and I am sure it continues as the evolution of the protocol got to v4)

@scanlime awhile ago you had posted a paper describing variable length network addresses in ipv4 (or earlier), where each 'program' on a computer would get an address and then a router to a subnet would just be a different program, and then this evolved over time to port numbers identifying programs and a fixed address size.

Do you still have a link to that, or any search terms that would help me find it? Thanks.

@openstreetmap hey. Something not up with www.openstreetmap.org? Getting really spotty connectivity from multiple networks, even if down-detectors say you are up.

Have you upgraded to #FreeBSD 14 yet?
