    Development for Linux on FreeBSD

    Looks to me like you can still find plenty of #ifdef harmfulness this century: https://lists.zx2c4.com/pipermail/wireguard/2021-March/006494.html

    Firefox to go full AI with new CEO

    I'm not panicking yet. There'll be plenty of time for that later.

    Firefox to go full AI with new CEO

    Not a fan of Palemoon: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16318820 Palemoon is a Firefox fork, no? Try a different fork like Waterfox. Or ungoogled-chromium. I don't run the latter cause I build my own packages and its build time is frankly ridiculous.

    Porting X11Libre to FreeBSD.

    Was this cleanup the result of trying to integrate with Xlibre?

    Installing packages without internet

    Interesting. Has been working for me without this step.

    vr0 does not work after lots of troubleshooting

    Maybe the hardware is dying? It is elderly, after all.

    vr0 does not work after lots of troubleshooting

    This would be a fun git-bisect project if I had the HW... Maybe QEMU Tulip emulation would work?

    vr0 does not work after lots of troubleshooting

    That does sound like a bug. I don't have the hardware so I can't try to reproduce it. What version of Freebsd is this under?

    Firefox to go full AI with new CEO

    There was an unofficial port, but no more: https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/disaster-strikes-seamonkey-removed-from-ports-tree.71335/post-637689 It reportedly works under Linux emulation.

    Thanksgiving - no donation this year

    They definitely were because I remember being angry about slides 45 and 46, where the bullet points at the top of the slide absolutely contradict the actual data presented in the slide And Look at the data, and you'll see the Forum way outperforms all those alternative means of communications...

    Firefox to go full AI with new CEO

    I use it on Mac, and the default engine is Duckduckgo. It's OK.

    Porting X11Libre to FreeBSD.

    Yeah, my bad. Still a whole lot more work than the simple flavorized approach baaz implemented, and still way more friction to someone that just wants to try out Xlibre without spending a bunch of time on it.

    Porting X11Libre to FreeBSD.

    So then anything you want to run under Xlibre has to be aware of these mangled names? How's that simpler than FLAVORS?

    bhyve Advice on Firewall Deployment Architecture

    I always run my firewalls on bare metal. Virtualization adds a layer than can have problems. For an enterprise setup, I'd look at two machines and carp interfaces. Test by powering each off by unplugging the power cable. Make sure the network hiccup is minimal if noticeable, and that the...

    C++ FLTK displaying a sysctl value

    I just built 4 and kept them around in an array of structures: #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/sysctl.h> #include <FL/Fl.H> #include <FL/Fl_Window.H> #include "Fl_Gauge.H" struct cbdata { char* sysctl_name; Fl_Gauge* gauge; }; void gaugecb(void* p_data) { int t_dK; //Default is...

    Porting X11Libre to FreeBSD.

    I have only a rudimentary understanding of how the ports framework operates, but FWIW I'm convinced the FLAVORS version is the way to go right now.

    C OpenSSL questions

    This is somewhat off topic. I beg your forgiveness in advance. If you're writing something new from scratch, why not look at libtls? It was specifically designed to avoid the pitfalls and weirdness of Openssl. Note that using libtls does not force you to switch to Libressl. There's...

    C++ FLTK displaying a sysctl value

    To expand on what Covacat and Alain have said, the "dev.aibs.0.%desc" sysctl returns the description of the aibs sensor at index 0. From the man page: This is going to be a string of characters of some arbitrary length and sysctlbyname needs a place to put them. In the code above buf is the...
