I agree, it is stupid to drop FTP support just like it was stupid to drop gopher support and not add gemini support. These extra protocols shouldn't...

Couldn't agree more! Everytime I see a youtuber talking about spectrewm or Xmonad or the like I'm like I LOVE this workflow it's what I need! Tries...

Wikipedia reports read only on the 3 big *BSDs thought it is a bit outdated. Checking the OpenBSD man pages indicate that even in -current it is read...

I guess the closest thing to a universal filesystem that doesn't share FAT32's limitations is EXT2. I've used that to move files between *BSDs and Windows...

I wonder if NetBSD will rebase to openzfs? Then if we could just get the Illuminos folks to rebase and that Windows port sorted out then every major...

A LONG time ago FreeBSD used to give the option to install Xorg in the setup. I think around version 5. It was on a CD version I had as a teenager in...

I was watching a video about the TLS in Kernel today and it increased web site throughput by 50gbits/s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qc0QRdxVv3g there...

I dislike how Michael makes everyone think Wine is unique to Linux and MacOS. I've actually never ran wine on MacOS, but I have run it many times on...

Forgive me for the noobish question but how does this compare to what OpenBSD does with relinking the kernel after each boot? Is this the same except...

Given that I can run NetBSD on my Dreamcast I think it would be pretty fast on a i486. I actually have it installed on a Pentium 3 computer that is like...

You make a fair point, but it gets you thinking if these almost made it in what did make it in? I'm not going to stop using FreeBSD on my workstation...

Anyone know what this cool sounding feature is:
RHEL8 now supports Error Detection and Correct (EDAC) kernel module functionality for newer Intel...

I agree, my trust in them has been shaken. With that jail vulnerability awhile back and the recent wire guard debacle I wonder just how much vanilla...

There is a Loongson server platform coming out this year or early next year that uses 16 sockets of 16 core processors. It is going to be Epic!

[kylew77]

That is VERY cool! I will have to try installing that this weekend! Thank you for contributing that awesome piece of code....

[kylew77]

I disagree, getting a FreeBSD desktop up and running is about as difficult as doing it on Arch Linux. You don't have to compile a custom kernel and set...

From Michael's article: "AES-NI support" was this not supported by GELI before!! Is that why my ZFS raid 1 on two NVMe drives is so slow when...
