Hm, no one has addressed Lehey's question. Maybe they took the discussion to a private channel.

Yep, it's been overtaken by the AI bubble. The language doesn't matter now that you just tell a chatbot to write the code for you.

You should report it. Sounds like a bug. https://github.com/freebsd/drm-kmod/issues

Openssh never accepted any changes that added a dependency on systemd. The various distros had custom patches that would link Openssh to libsystemd. This means that BSD systems would've been unaffected even if they'd managed to get this backdoor out into the wild.

Nice video. I am annoyed that the role of systemd in this hack is not highlighted more, though. Openssh did not actually link to XZ.

The AIrmageddon! It can't come fast enough. Classic drug dealer marketing: Get you completely dependent on the product by offering it for free or well below cost Jack up the price

BSD is dying!

Just when you think things can't get more ironic.... https://ewontfix.com/14/

Real programmers don't write FORTRAN. https://users.cs.utah.edu/~elb/folklore/mel.html

Alpine Linux does not use systemd. It was the most commonly used distro for Docker containers for a while. I dunno or care if that's still the case. True dat. Lennart and his acolytes are at least at good at politics as they are at computer programming.

I also prefer non-Egyptian braces. Power brother! I find this style of Egyptian braces ironic: void A(int x, int y) { // some code goes here. } Clearly you see a need for space between the function signature and the first line of code... How about we go ahead and slide the opening brace...

This is a cheap trick to get you to incriminate yourself. I would answer thusly: "Officer, I'm going to respectfully decline to answer any questions." This is a good answer in the US. Not sure about other countries.

I prefer the Hand of Suárez.

Yes, please.

That's a bug in freebsd-update that should've been fixed a while back. Try the workarounds here: https://euroquis.nl/freebsd/2025/12/09/freebsd-upgrade.html

Unfortunately tint2 has been unmaintained for some time now: https://gitlab.com/o9000/tint2/-/commit/f3aa2ef0c61838ce16a88733e4d31990c5b5cdf2 There were some forks when I last looked a couple of years ago. They seemed of questionable quality. Do recommend a similar lightweight bar if you find one.

Give them time. I'm sure it's coming.
