These binaries have the setuid bit on. The sooner we remove them, the better.

It's for the Alpine-based PostmarketOS.

I'm such a black sheep that I'm pro-BSD in a GNU crowd and pro-GNU in a BSD crowd. Or maybe I have an amphibian nature, or maybe I'm Schrödinger's! Or maybe this is all Therian non-sense... Anyway, I'm getting old to give a fuck about the labels. :)

Jails are better primitives for containers than Linux namespaces. If anything, FreeBSD can boast of having containers first. Jails are containers.

There's no hierarchy with PGP which relies more on the decentralized Web of Trust model. OpenSSH public keys can be used for authentication and signing. These can be trusted on first use (TOFU) or they can be signed by a CA with PKI giving you a real hierarchy.

It'd be nice to mention that people need Yubikey 5 for this because the cheaper Yubikey Security Key wouldn't work. I have a pair of those but it's overkill for all my use-cases except Keepass XC, where OATH HOTP is needed. When they get it to work with just FIDO2 I may buy the cheaper ones...

After the recent GPG fail people are looking for alternatives. See these threads on oss-security: - https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2025/12/28/1 - https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2025/12/29/2 Why not use signify by OpenBSD instead? I no longer use GPG for anything. I...

Why are the kde & plasma6-plasma packages not available in latest for -STABLE? FreeBSD-ports: { url: "pkg+https://pkg.FreeBSD.org/${ABI}/latest", mirror_type: "srv", signature_type: "fingerprints", fingerprints: "/usr/share/keys/pkg", enabled: yes } FreeBSD-ports-kmods: { url...

In the case of Linux because of export restrictions (pun intended) due to one function marked as EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL.

Well, OpenZFS is CDDL which is copyleft (even though weak and file-based). Still, it doesn't pass the license purity test that OpenBSD likes.

I couldn't reproduce with this: $ truncate -s 128M zfs.img $ sudo zpool create testpool ./zfs.img $ sudo zfs create -o compression=off -o encryption=on -o keyformat=passphrase -o keylocation=prompt testpool/crypt $ sudo dd if=/dev/urandom of=/testpool/crypt/testfile bs=1M status=progress $ sudo...

Did you try with OpenZFS 2.4.0? https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/releases/tag/zfs-2.4.0 > Better encryption performance using AVX2 for AES-GCM (#17058)

multimedia/gstreamer1-plugins-x265 or multimedia/x265 ?

It's not anecdotal. It still has issues: https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/issues/7734

Both are bloated and wasteful. An array of N objects duplicates the name of each struct member N times. I've seen tools getting OOM killed because of this. Now RAM prices are high and we should come up with something better.

I've seen some of your stuff in the web and wonder why don't you publish it on Amazon. I enjoy the dark aesthetics of these. These are the sort of things I'd enjoy on a plane or in a digital detox when visiting family members. Seriously consider publishing.

This is not true. The CoC is not based on the Contributor Covenant by Coraline Ada, who is also the author of the Post-Meritocracy Manifesto. The current one is based on LLVM & Django's. We're 3 years past this peak non-sense and things are returning to normal with the good ol' shut up & code...

The Internet is full of these stories and I don't think it's an urban myth. https://www.cnet.com/news/privacy/study-unpatched-pcs-compromised-in-20-minutes/ https://macdailynews.com/2005/06/27/microsoft_windows_average_survival_time_rises_to_40_minutes_for_unprotected/
