The thing about a memory safe language is that the language is made to be memory safe but who writes the code to make it memory safe and what guarantees are there that make that so?

There was no government mandate. It was a suggestion (I guess would be the right word).

What's the output of ifconfig bridge100 when both jails are running?

Many banks are forcing people to install apps to do everything on the phone, not only tan generation, and they found a way to do it conforming EU laws. An example is n26. I just deposit there no more than 100 EUR and recharge after expending...

I never upgrade individual packages, it's always all or nothing. I get why you'd want to test an upgrade beforehand though, I also do this. But I'll leave the "new" repository only accessible to the test servers, and when I'm satisfied...

While I generally agree with the core of the statement, I'd like to add that rust folks make it really hard to just ignore it. They show up with an armored convoy, bash in your front door, strap you down on a chair and force you to listen to...

Original article here. Consider this when replying. FreeBSD, The FreeBSD Foundation, and The FreeBSD Forums are not associated with the content of this article.

bhyve's VNC doesn't support WebSockets.

I agree with sko and MrBSD. I have no payment apps on my phone--I think google pay is on there, but I'm not signed up for it. My wife does use her Apple Pay and finds it convenient, but I use my phone almost entirely for calls, texts, and as an...

A Summer of Code proof of concept is hardly indicative of the overall direction of an OS.

Thats how it supposed to be used. But when i suggest something like this to my friends, they say its too much hassle, inconvenient and its not needed. Im too paranoid and i should relax. Being stupid is a choice.

Thank you for your reply. re0 is on hostA, bge0 on hostB.

Remove the version number from the package name. If you want to install a specific version use pkg-install.

IDE Has worked like this for ...I don't remember. Probably going into 20 years....

I lean towards what VladiBG said - more likely you entered your data to a phising site by accident. Relatively easy to pull off and with suprisingly good results. This happened to my gf's friend 2 weeks ago or so - she was busy with her kids...

Rust people are like vegan. You know what they are within the first two or three minutes of your first meeting.

I can't answer your question, but I'm curious--please keep us posted on your progress.

drhowarddrfine I was there in the early 2000's, then around the time that admin got ill, I wound up at a CentOS shop. So, from around 2007-2013 I wasn't very active in the new forums or daemon forums.

Please don't add to FUD. Even Perrin seems to have removed the "sunset" part from his reddit post. I won't comment on the reddit thread but best to simply ignore it.

Hello rainer_d, What type of virtual controller did you use for virtual disc? IDE or SCSI ?

That is why I only access my bank through a carefully set bookmark. A typo in one letter can lead to a phishing site.

Well, does anyone else have it? :p It's easy to reproduce but likely not something noticed unless you're looking for it (I doubt anyone looks at FPS on browser 4K@60Hz vids (less-so on FreeBSD) and it looks relatively smooth even with the FPS...

Yes of course FreeBSD forums are official, anyone who claims otherwise does not know English language.

That's a problem, but I'm curious why project members don't use the forums more? I posted a Firefox issue on 14.2. I still saw the issue on 14.3 p2. I didn't make a "proper" bug report, but I was kind-of hoping that'd be fixed before a new OS...

I did it: pkg clean pkg update -f

DELETED RANT I like to think the FreeBSD Forum is curated not moderated. I do want to thank our moderators for the excellent job they do.

OSS: Anything else is higher-level abstraction coming back to it :p

Devd can take care of it with something like this: attach 100 { match "device-name" "uaudio[0-9]+"; action "sysctl hw.snd.default_unit=`sysctl dev.pcm | grep -e %parent -e $device-name | cut -d . -f 3`"; };

Nuff said. Thank you for reading Reddit so I didn't have to.

For historic reference, the poster/mod there was an avid fan of Reddit (or more likely the power he had by setting up the unofficial FreeBSD reddit channel). He was politely asked to stop spamming these forums with reddit links by a number of our...

My IQ dropped 15 points reading that Reddit post. Two more like that and it's negative... And how did AI play into the thought process of that Redditor?

One quirky guy who has an axe to grind with the Forum Moderators posts something on reddit and you think we need to answer? Who pays the forum tab?

All I was saying was: /var was traditionally not required to be persistent. Other than the spool directories, losing all content from /var could be cured by a reboot. That doesn't mean that wiping it is a good idea: in the old days, when mail...

scottro That's pretty close. I remember vermaden started at the original forum a month or two after I did. I don't remember who else is here now from back then. Were you there then? What a zoo that became.

Rust code shouldn't be noticeably slower than modern C++ using vectors (with bounds checking), unless the C++ developer excessively abused the stack in an unsafe manner or uses C arrays everywhere (no bounds checking). Both C++ and Rust have...

Is that Android app homemade by that bank? And as mentioned above, falling through to SMS is stupid. Very easy to hijack.

A quick history of these forums as I remember it. There was a BSDforums or maybe FreeBSDforums, but whatever it was called, it was primarily FreeBSD. It was privately owned, and the owner became quite ill. The forums started getting tons of spam...

Can you clarify which method you used for the second factor?

More information. The guy who shall not be named above but is the FreeBSD reddit mod, also announced recently that he no longer uses FreeBSD but has switched over to Linux. In case anyone wants to know how I know this (cause I mentioned I never...

The discussion here about Reddit is somewhat relevant as to the quality of reddit altogether.

Rust is popular for memory safety, which sounds security-related, which sounds slower than not coding for the safety. I want max performance everywhere! Or rather, I'm thinking most people choosing Rust aren't doing it for performance...
