You have the reason in the OP. It's because it chokes up the process of building packages. It's one of the "heaviest" packages out there. On the machine that builds 15.0 packages, it took almost 25 hours to build the regular Chromium. On the machine that builds for 14.3, it took 36 hours if...

Because it chokes up the process, so now only the regular www/chromium gets built, something that took almost 25 hours by the way. The Queued ports section is the total of all ports that are set to be built. That doesn't mean they will all end up being built. If you see www/ungoogled-chromium...

Yes, mission creep and the ratchet effect are mere figments of our own imagination.

That's normal behavior. They are never removed and there are no Periodic script or cron job that cleans them up. They are preserved in case you need to do a system rollback. Once you've tested that everything is running smoothly, you can remove everything in there: rm -r /var/db/freebsd-update/*

You're referring to this disclaimer? That's been the case for a long time for all cryptographic materials coming out of the US. Such materials were initially classified as military equipment. Then, for decades, they were regulated as dual-use items and only acquired their current status with...

These laws have either been voted already or are about to. Good luck overturning them, especially when practically all tech corporations support this (and are probably behind it), when wacky activists support this (and are definitely behind it), and when both parties support this in one form or...

Rest in Peace, Chuck Norris!

My first introduction to ToN was Black Sabbath, a cover of... well, Black Sabbath (I know, shocker!)... from the Nativity in Black tribute album. The first album I bought was Slow, Deep and Hard. And I fell in love with the band. They have such a unique sound they could be in a gothic/doom metal...

It's nice to see her releasing new stuff already. This post wouldn't be complete without the latest of Arch Enemy with the great Lauren Hart. View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WujjCSEJcDk

The USB bus, followed by the address assigned to the device on that bus. ls /dev/ugen* gives you a list of all that is available on your machine. lo0 is the loopback interface. It lives entirely in the network stack, has no impact on your network interface controller(s) and has nothing to do...

Secure boot is only supported for Windows 8 and up, and some Linux distributions. FreeBSD doesn't support it yet. If you're a beginner I recommend getting more familiar with the system and using packages for now.

In addition to potential memory problems, I wouldn't rule out disk problems. I'd keep reliable, up to date backups if I were you and run a few S.M.A.R.T. tests and keep an eye for any sudden CAM status errors/failure messages (tail -f /var/log/messages).

One of my favorites too. Mecha franchises were so popular back then. There are many others whose names I don't even remember. But my favorite is still Transformers. The figurines were so fun too.

Yes, it's a resource-intensive process as you can imagine, and usually requires the use of a discrete GPU. There are ways to use the "cloud" if you only have an iGPU at your disposal. Obviously, that means it's not "local" anymore. There are tutorials for that, but I have no idea if this would...

Animated series or cartoon series. Looney Tunes (Bugs Bunny, Marvin the Martian, Daffy Duck, and Coyote/Road Runner being my favorites) Les Aventures de Tintin G.I. Joe series Transformers series

Then definitely check the cable connections and health of your hardware as I previously suggested before proceeding with anything else.

You forgot Antoine-Joseph (Adolphe) Sax. Music would be poorer without the saxophone. Maybe Jean-Claude Van Damme deserves an honorable mention too. ;)

Is your filesystem clean? Run fsck if you have UFS partitions. Check /var/log/messages and dmesg for hardware-related errors, especially disk-related ones. Now may be a good time to check your disk cables physically. Replace them if you have spares and try again. If the error persists, run...

Check /dev to see if a new device gets created when you plug the adapter in. As root, run usbconfig -d /dev/ugenX.X dump_device_desc, replacing X.X with the device that was created. What does this command say?
