Hallelujah! Thank's a lot, this works perfectly.

FreeBSD has jot in base which I am using to print a random string appended to a date stamp as follows: printf $(date +%d_%b_%Y)-; jot -r -c 8 a z | rs -g0 0 8 | tee -a records The date+ character string should appear both as output on the console i.e. 04_Apr_2022-mqfvscqu as well as be...

Wow. Thanks for the information on what happened. There are a lot of really nice tutorials on those older shows. Might there be any other sites that have them? I remember there was a torrent feed some time ago, but I can't even find that anymore.

I think this post fits here. I am wondering if anyone might have some idea on where I can find the "BSD Now Episode #24 The Cluster and the Cloud"? It is from 2014, whereas nearly all feeds that I can find go back only to 2018. Were these purged from the official site for some reason? BSD...

I imagine at the time it probably felt good to mark the times in which we all find ourselves, but I suppose that could have been achieved in another way. It also looks like its making some people uncomfortable judging by the comments section in the article.

It looks like NetBSD had it first and now DragonFly! Following NetBSD, DragonFlyBSD Now Has "COVID"

Awesome, many thanks!

Hi! This thread seems to a bit dated (last post over a year ago), but it seems to be the best place to jump in with my question. I have first the first time decided to use something other than Xfce/Thunar for my desktop/window manager and have tried plain vanilla FVWM. After a few days it feels...

Thank you! Upgrading (slowly) did the trick.

I have the following system installed: FreeBSD box 11.1-RELEASE-p1 FreeBSD 11.1-RELEASE-p1 #0: Wed Aug 9 11:55:48 UTC 2017 root@amd64-builder.daemonology.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64 Which had been dormant for some time. I begin the process of upgrading this but had some...

Many thanks again for the heads up in the previous question. I have settled on a solution that allows me to always encrypt to selected recipients, while defaulting to a normal email behavior for all others. Here is what I have added to my muttrc #The default behavior is to nor sign and not...

Zirias, please accept my appreciation for your guidance. I took a bit of time in replying to ensure that I had all the pieces where they needed to be and that everything works accordingly. I have essentially replaced the entire gpg section from the previously linked muttrc with what you have...

I have recently switched from Thunderbird to neomutt and so far 'fairly' good in terms of things being in working order. I have based my muttrc on an example layout that I found on github: https://github.com/javier-lopez/dotfiles/blob/master/.mutt/muttrc by Javier Lopez. His setup was last...

Wow, thank you so much!

Hi all, I have been scouring the Interwebs for a commandline-based stock ticker or a script that can pull prices on an automatic or manual basis. The links that I came across all referenced using curl and pulling from Yahoo and Google, both of which disabled this functionality back around 2015...

Thanks!

Would you mind sharing what you did to get rid of the problem?

You have two options my friend. The first option if you have the skills, is to begin porting hammer2 to FreeBSD. I am sure the DragonFly community will be very supportive. The second option is to simply use DragonFlyBSD.

Well, for many years it was Thunderbird simply due to its ease of use and calendering/being able to accept calendar invites. But now I think I might switch to either mutt or claws.

Thanks for the recommendation. I did this and there was a bug report filed with mailpile github. Let's see what becomes of it.
