Would be cool to see BSDs other than FreeBSD be well supported by a major graphics vendor. AMDGPU has landed in OpenBSD and NetBSD but lags behind current...

I know a lot of people don't use ext4 but it is the default on many Linux distros and the default file system is what is normally tested here. I didn't...

Did some research myself: "Updated ZFS. This is the first release with ZFS usable for daily use, but there is no support for booting from ZFS nor...

NetBSD 9 is shaping up to be a terrific release. Considering how much less manpower they have compared to FreeBSD or even OpenBSD. Having virtualization...

Great article Michael. You seem to be the only one who gives the *BSDs any benchmarking love. I wonder was FreeBSD tested with root on ZFS or UFS? ...

What was most interesting to me is the that the only thing that really changed was clock speed and new instructions. Only 2MB+ cache in 10 years and...

It would be nice to see FUSE support in FreeBSD improve too. EXfat support is in very poor shape compared to the Linux support. Like so poor I couldn't...

Sparc64 seems like such a cool architecture just like IBM Power, but gaining traction against the entrenched x86_64 is a huge pain. Would be cool to...

It really makes me sad what Oracle did to Solaris. I really hope that anybody who needs Solaris can switch to Illumos based distros to stop giving Oracle...

I wonder if this will get ported to the other open source operating systems, particularly FreeBSD and OpenBSD because I see posts on other forms all the...

I'm just a student but why is end of life for a language a bad thing? People still code in C99 and Fortran and Cobol. Just because the language is old...

I wonder if Oracle has any competent people working for it. They have a real Unix OS that pioneered a lot of things, Dtrace, ZFS, Containers and are...

In that case thank you so much for helping to make FreeBSD a first class wine citizen. For my trivial needs Wine preforms great for what I need to run...

Congratulations on the new addition to the family Michael! We love the work you do for this site, I check it every day, but it is perfectly understandable...
