    I don't have these. Do you have any files under /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos?

    ZFS zpool freezes

    The patch is pretty straightforward: https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/pull/17717/files Looks like 2.2.x is still supported. It just had a release in August. No MFHs to any branches yet, except in a developer's fork: https://github.com/behlendorf/zfs/commit/3dc345851cd16af444acee120202152563660e34

    LTO is still around. Still crazy expensive.

    A separate ports tree for games? (GPorts)

    No need to work that hard. Find an old game that has been open-sourced, and get it to work on FBSD: https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/half-life-in-4-easy-steps.80394/ https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/any-interest-in-tribal-trouble-1.75319/ I need to find the motivation to look into this...

    What Vale Taught Me About Linear Types, Borrowing, and Memory Safety

    The Vale example is a compile-time check that raises an error: https://verdagon.dev/blog/higher-raii-7drl#a-real-world-example I spent some time at work this week wading through hundreds of compiler warnings, looking for the actual compilation error... Lesson learned: set your compiler's flags...

    A separate ports tree for games? (GPorts)

    Freebsd is severely understaffed already. Fragmenting the ports tree would only make it worse.

    Rust in the FreeBSD kernel

    A dark vision, but unfortunately it has a lot of truth in it. I plan to be retired and maybe fighting fires for a fee when things explode and the vibe coders are useless.

    What Vale Taught Me About Linear Types, Borrowing, and Memory Safety

    I feel ya. I've got fadlang fatigue too, but this one is actually interesting.

    What Vale Taught Me About Linear Types, Borrowing, and Memory Safety

    Linear types are so easy to understand! I may have to try to write some Vale to see if they're as useful as they seem.

    Rust in the FreeBSD kernel

    It's almost like there's no easy way out of dependency hell (or DLL hell if you're a Windows type.) But hey, keep writing more and more package managers that allow you to download the Internet and damn the consequences. A sad irony that seems to be overlooked is that the original author of...

    Rust in the FreeBSD kernel

    Yeah, maybe my memory's faulty, but I thought it was C++. That's still a weird stack Obj-C -> C -> C++.

    Rust in the FreeBSD kernel

    It can get sillier. A long time ago I worked on software that had initially been developed for NextOS on Next boxes. That was a really elegant early object-oriented platform. Unfortunately, the writing had been on the wall for Next before I came along. New CTO was hired and decided (correctly)...

    The FreeBSD Forums: official, or not?

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

    bhyve Gentoo with X on bhyve

    Yeah, and you'll be in the 5% of Gentoo users that actually track stable. Been there, done that.

    bhyve Gentoo with X on bhyve

    I want all the time I wasted keeping my Gentoo server updated back! Seriously, though, if there's one thing that's true about installing and maintaining a Gentoo host is that it's neither quick nor easy. Just about the only thing I miss is the ability to skip using an initrd. I don't miss it...

    Grafana dashboards for Prometheus?

    You're probably going to have better luck asking on the the first one's Github. There's no way that I can find to contact any sort of community for Grafana.
