No. Too busy keeping my eye on the tip jar... XD
That is interesting though. I am actually a little surprised.
Though I do understand that Monaco is a good candidate for a tax haven.
anglaro, If you want a splash screen in the VirtualBox FreeBSD VM, the easiest way is to do a clean install with the extended feature EFI enabled in the VM's settings motherboard tab.
What's the current FreeBSD installations file system? UFS or ZFS?
So apparently the issue with LibreOffice is with QT because I have multi-gpu on my FreeBSD, so the workaround is above...
set QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR=0
set QT_SCALE_FACTOR=1
I recently had 2 GPU loop go bad because of a fail pump and was...
This is really off topic. I know that Belgium in Congo was really bad. I can't speak for other aspects of Che, but helping get Belgium out of Congo was good. Che may have been an idealist to what he did, and it may have gotten Cubans killed for...
Why tip just for waiters/waitresses and not for nurses for example? In the restaurants I pay for my order not for waiter salary which is owners responsibility.
I'm probably too poor (i.e English) to understand the funny words. But I clicked "like" anyway ;)
In the UK, like many of our customs, they are poor replications of the US. So in many retail jobs, the "tips" aren't allowed to be taken by the...
When I arrive in my Ferrari Testarossa at a car dealership in Monaco, I always give the car dealer a hundred euros to take care of my car...
Just a joke.
If it was an accident, I shouldn't have used the too evil term, CRIMINAL.
I used the term because it was intentional.
If they forked and restarted as different language that looks like Python, I shoudn't have used the term, too, even if Python...
When I was living in Johannesburg, on every open parking there was some guy which you must tip (bribe, actually) to "take care of your car" (read: to not break your car windows or worse). Not a joke 🤷♂️
Running: FreeBSD 14.3-RELEASE-p3. This is on a fresh installation of FreeBSD.
I have installed both mysql91-server and mysql91-client using poudriere. The installation seemed to go correctly. The problem now is that I am unable to start MySQL...
As for Hijikata, Gintama fans might have a different picture of him, (as well as other famous Shinsengumi folk). Though I wouldn't base my historical knowledge on anime meant to be funny. As astyle said, the Shinsengumi was revered by some...
Ché is nothing but a serial killer worse than Charles Manson. If you wear his t-shirt for shocking everyone, like Axl Rose & Phil Anselmo did, that I can understand. But lots of clueless youngsters wear it because he represents a "rebel" but...

https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/libreoffice-crashing-on-13-1-p2.86697/unread (at the very end) might have a solution. I've not had the issue so can't comment on whether it works or not.
For the third time: there is no graphic in console for bios boot. That means no splash, no bmp, no png... bios boot cons is text only.
AFAIK, if OP wants to hide boot text scrolling with graphic, he'll need to boot using UEFI, and for that he'll...
Upgraded my system after a couple of months and discovered this:

qt.qpa.plugin: Could not find the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in ""
This application failed to start because...
If you are booting from bios, you'll probably want in loader.conf
kern.vty="vt"
hw.vga.textmode="1"
As I said, there is no graphics for a bios boot since 14.2, so cons is text only.
Just enabling UEFI in VBox on already installed OS will do no...
For years I have on two Win hosts (10 and 11) VBox setup with UEFI boot & VBoxSVGA (256M Video Memory), and full-res vt console (1920x1080 on 11, 1600x1200 on 10 host).
On Win10 host I do have boot_mute="YES" (but only that) in loader.conf...
Not sure it's possible or not.
But if you REALLY want it, file a bug with requiring exp-run JUST NOW!
(I wouldn't, as I hate Python as commented below.)
Some details why I state it such a radical way.
Upgrading default Python has too huge an...
What's your boot in VBox, UEFI or Legacy BIOS? For UEFI, you have to select it in VBox System / Motherboard / Features. If this is not selected then boot is starting from BIOS. Also, what's your console, vt or sc?

One very odd thing, the KVM has blue USB 3.0 connections which I connected to the blue USB 3.0 ports of the motherboard. While trying all sorts of things without success in desperation I plugged the KVM into the motherboard USB 2.0 connections...
Sometimes we do. When I get extra help or over the top service, I might slip someone a $10 or $20 bill. But most people don't work in a customer facing job and want a reliable steady income.

To be honest, I'm not a fan of doas, either... I believe that sudo/doas are just reinventing the wheel with no real technical merit. ZFS was a game changer, unlike any other filesystem. Ext2, ReiserFS, JFS, UFS - they were not different enough to...

I think that computing-related politics are OK to an extent. Like the "Cathedral and Bazaar" paper tried to explain the model of software availability and options people have for what software they can install on their metal. It was an...
I wondered why people idolized him. I guess he was perceived as being the "resistance." He may be associated with the word Libre, but I don't necessarily see it as freedom. I believe he's a symbol, but not one which represents freedom. He may be...

Well, this is true for any business.
No. A tip is an incentive to provide good service as well as a reward for doing so. Inserting it into the price of the meal would reward poor service, too, and is no longer a tip but the price of the meal.
In VirtualBox, FreeBSD works best with VBoxSVGA, not VMSVGA. If you are booting from bios, and not efi, be aware that
See FreeBSD 14.2-RELEASE Release Notes
splash is only for sc.

It's gotten ridiculous here in the US. You see tip jars and tip add ons for far too many things you wouldn't normally tip for. The most insulting and embarrassing one is when you buy something and they spin the touchpad around at you where you...
"vga_load" and "splash_changer_enable" are apparently non-existent variables in past and current supported versions, there is no record in the source logs about them. Where did you get those?

Note, ndofdev is only need if you want joystick support. You can disable this requirement by passing a boolean to cmake during the initial configuration state, though I dont remember the exact name of the boolean off the top of my head.
Linden Lab have changed their stance on Linux a lot in recent times, they have resurrected Linux builds (currently Beta) and they are available on their github pages. I have not tested them so I cannot confirm how well they work.

Many may be aware that products between the US and Cuba are restricted. For a US citizen to travel to Cuba, I believe they must travel to Canada first, for instance. A lot of cigars in the US come from Dominican Republic, even though the same...
That's why I still keep old Fujitsu/Siemens PS/2 keyboard in one of the drawers, and have USB-PS/2 adapter for the mouse somewhere around (probably in the box with tools).
Note that /usr/src/UPDATING is for base (src) and /usr/ports/UPDATING is for ports/pkgs. These are different files.
But something affecting both (i.e., some changes in base affects ports/pkgs and some descriptions are needed for both, with a bit...
Not promising to workaround, but in some cases, configuring BIOS/UEFI firmware to do extended tests (or extended memory tests alone) allow slow-to-start peripherals to up and running after powerint on.
