Here is another one: The world’s second-most popular desktop operating system isn’t macOS anymore The OS market is changing too fast for me.

Syncthing does the job as far as I am concerned. Yet another unreal problem answered. EDIT: syncing kernel, base, userland or installed packages across a high number of servers would have answered a real problem.

Only Rum like Captain Jack Sparrow. PS: I have been watching all Pirates of the Caribbean with my kids that explains, savvy? :)

System initialization is explained in the SYSTEM INITIALIZATION section of this document: RUNIT-FASTER (7) - FreeBSD Miscellaneous Information Manual. While the SERVICE TEMPLATES section of the same document explains how to start a service. With this information, you should be able to create a...

We are all locked down so why not? There are two (2) runit: sysutils/runit : said to be a "Replacement for DJB daemontools" (hereafter referred to as "runit") and sysutils/runit-faster : said to be a "Runit based init replacement for FreeBSD" (hereafter referred to as "runit-faster")...

My VPS: 4 cores plus 8gb.

I am using Wireguard on FreeBSD and Debian peers. Speed seems to be as good as with OpenVPN.

You think the Guru has gone cuckoo so why do you still follow the Guru? I don't see any non sequitur. There is not such thing as Linux. There is only a Linux kernel and there will be an integration at some point in time unless ZoL hits a roadblock. My opinion is that every approach to...

Am I right to understand that you and the legions of "sensible people capable of making good decisions" in the Linux ecosystem (hereafter collectively referred to as "Red Hat" ) are going to fork the Linux kernel ? It makes sense since Systemd (hereafter referred to the "1.5M line chaos") has...

Linus Towswald's opinion on ZFS on Linux

I am not questioning pre-rebasing ZoB. I am questioning the bazaar that has become of ZoL. Why don't you ask Theo de Raadt if he would implement ZoL as is in OpenBSD? Alternatively, why don't you ask the learned folks at Google, AWS or Microsoft if they would use ZoL as is for their...

What evidence do you need?

I'm not saying that ZoL and Systemd are interwoven. I am just saying that ZoL is growing to be as bloated, as inefficient and as chaotic as Systemd. I am also saying that, at some point, the users and the devs will become skeptical to the point of reconsidering the whole project and will...

Far be it from me to rant, but I would think twice before going on ZoL-rebased ZoB given 1) how big of a Systemd-grade mess, ZoL has become and 2) Debian's questioning of their faith in Systemd ( See here)

Here we go To me, they have come to realize that they over-invested in Systemd and they are no longer sure this is the way to go. So as a result, they want to bury their confusion under a reassuring mountain of statistics, hedge their bet and keep all their options on the table.

Kamatera is an other cheap one with Freebsd 9, 10, 11 and 12 images ( I am also using this one).

I am using Contabo. For 4.99 Euro/month (plus a 4.99 Euro setup fee), you will get a KVM VPS with: Four core CPU of a Intel Xeon E5-2620v3, E5-2630v4 or/and 4114 processor 8 GB RAM. 200 GB disk space (100% SSD) 200 Mbit/s Unlimited traffic. They do have a FreeBSD 12.0 option. The downside...

Yet another interesting meshing VPN based on the Noise Protocol : NEBULA
