One of the most interesting Linux distributions which doesn't utilize systemd appears to be dead https://voidlinux.eu/news/2018/05/serious-issues.html

You shouldn't!!! FreeBSD Dom0 is highly experimental. That section just like many others obsolete sections should be deleted from the handbook.

I figured out you guys are BS-ing anyway so what the heck! Old good Oko can BS as well. 3 pages and 65 post later nobody has the gut to tell the OP that he needs to run a proprietary OS with the official vendor support for his favorite proprietary technologies. This thread should have never had...

Oracle has nothing to do with Solaris or great Solaris documentation unless you count their squeeze of death. Solaris and its documentation are the finest examples of Sun Microsystems engineering and documentation.

OpenIndiana is still alive and the newest Hipster is released. This is by far the biggest FreeBSD competitor for a market share and truly superior product if not for the minuscule community https://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/2018.04+Release+notes

This purely depends on the field. In the fields I am familiar with (Mathematics, Physics, Astronomy, Supercomputing, and parts of AI/Machine Learning) there is nothing that will send your CV faster to a garbage can than submitting your application in Microsoft Word. All applications, peer review...

Because NVidia is selling only proprietary hardware. OpenBSD and DragonFly BSD are open source projects (FreeBSD not so much) and get video support from XOrg only. If there is no documentation for hardware the drivers can't be written. As simple as that. Please refer to NVidia for the list of...

This is a really bad advise. I can't speak of Devuan but I run several Alpine based Dom0 and consider myself competent Alpine user. While Alpine Linux is second to none as Dom0, Dockers image or Linux based firewall/router due to its use of musl libc running NAS appliance of Alpine is...

You either need switch or you don't. If you need a switch buy a switch. If you need a good network server I have two of these running OpenBSD https://www.ebay.com/itm/Supermicro-5018D-FN4T-Xeon-D-8-Core-Front-1U-Rackmount-Dual-10GbE-32Gb-512G-M-2-/132145612083?hash=item1ec47e0533 I can easily...

Yes i can't find other class notes now.

The main purpose of a network switch is passing packets as quickly as possible. You are mentioning 10-40 Gigabit which until recently was in tens of thousands of dollars. The one you mentioned can be bought for as "little" as $5500. That is still lot of money as you can get 10Gigabit switch...

That is not possible. Jails can't even do bridge mode (in a reliable way which is why vnet is disabled in generic). Jails are simply limited to the network alias aka. assigning 2 ip address to a single host NIC.

+1 I have been using over the years sysutils/zfsnap2 to take snapshots and prune the old once. It is easy as # minute hour mday month wday command # taking snapshots 30 9-16/2 * * 1-5 /usr/local/sbin/zfsnap snapshot -s -S -a 2w storage/project 0...

Freeshell.org one of the oldest free shell account providers in U.S. (since early 90s of the last century) which runs of NetBSD has a membership level which includes free dynamic DNS service. Their basic membership is $1 for life and even that one will enable you to script out your free dynamic...

I think we went through this drill before in the other thread:) https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/updating-gitlab-from-a-source-installation.65459/#post-384146 Because you can't self host GitHub and very often contract or internal company regulations stipulate that not a single line of the...

I don't think you will find many people who care about suspend and hibernation in FreeBSD camp. Those operations are irrelevant for day to day server use. Actually I could get fired if one of my FreeBSD servers goes into hibernating mode :eek:. If you need a UNIX on your laptop just get a Mac...

Check grammar. It worked fine on FreeBSD last time I used it as desktop OS in the spring of 2007. At that time I did have newer consumer grade audio card for which a native FreeBSD OSS driver didn't exist. It was also available for OpenBSD (last time around 3.8-3.9 release IIRC which means...
