Combi microwave (microwave, hot air, grill, all-in-one). Use the hot air for bake-off bread (don't know if this is common outside of the Netherlands) or pizza. Microwave to heat up ready-made meals.

I see that I have in /etc/rc.conf vm_dir="zroot/vm" and it works for creating vms. But I don't remember how I got that, I seem to vaguely remember that doing zfs:/zroom/vm didn't work. I should update that part of the page, as I can't remember...

You know that no power means no gas - as people in texas found out recently? I'm happy to have a certain range of options, from induction to woodstove. And as an inlaw once stated - the normal citizen of a western industry nation shall, when his...

scottro In your instructions you write: does that mean it's vm_dir="zfs:/zroot/vm" or vm_dir="/zroot/vm"?

I don't like directories as categories. Many PDFs belong in several categories and symlinks would make it messy. If I play the filename game I rename the pdf to a pretty long name that is both descriptive and has tags and categories as words in...

I just tried recoll and it seems to a nice application. Not sure how much I'll use it, vs grep -rs 'whatever' wherever, but it seems useful.

Big folder with PDF-s plus deskutils/recoll.

su and sudo are interfaces to the same mechanism, setuid, almost as old as Unix itself, with it being written as kernel counterpart of su. Setuid allows us to run escalated processes as limited user, with the process itself doing the privilege...

Yeah, thanks, but the same library issue is present pointing at existing previous version PG 13: [rihad@rihad /tmp/pg18/usr/local]$ ldd bin/psql bin/psql: libpq.so.5 => /usr/local/lib/libpq.so.5 (0x248257329000) ... so a trick similar to...

The *.pkg files are just archives with some additional meta data files. You can unpack them with tar anywhere you want. For pg_upgrade to work the previous version doesn't need to be installed, it just has to have access to the executables. See...

It takes a bit of experimenting with the various options, jobs, make, tmpfs, etc. in order to get the most effective use out of your build system. It's not always advantageous to have all cores going at 100% and end up bottlenecking on I/O for...

Oh, come on) pg_upgrade with proper flags takes 5-10 seconds on a 100+gb DB, and the time it takes doesn't grow linearly with size growth.

I have groff installed. Should I do something?

I should add the sound stuff can be done more simply--for the bhyve sound, I've also used sound="yes" sound_play="dev/dsp"

I might as well spam my own page https://srobb.net/vm-bhyve.html. It's for using vm-byve, which makes it much easier. My Debian uses a template like loader="uefi" graphics="yes" graphics_res="1920x1080" xhci_mouse="yes" cpu="4" memory="4096"...

Please, could you install 'got' and do 'man got' and see if you get 'mandoc.core' ? Before reporting, I would like to know if this only happens to me.

Say what? Fossil has no such dependencies to use it. Please explain "some cases".

Do you mean the paragraph in the middle? That's a blockquote and should be the same in all browsers. Looks the same in Chromium and Firefox to me on FreeBSD

Still rather annoying to keep track off. For a long time used poudriere-options myself, until I figured out make.conf made it so much easier. Careful with mixing those poudriere-options with make.conf though, poudriere-options overrule whatever...

Sounds like something that'd be on a Diablo 1 shrine and take Str and add Magic :p

According to the question I asked here: My Humble hobby OS project:

I'd recommend not using poudriere-options and instead put your options in the make.conf. Much easier to keep track off, and you don't have to redo the poudriere-options for every new jail you create. Here's an example from my make.conf, once...

BTW, configuring each and every port and all of its dependencies is sheer madness. You'd only do that (and most of the time non-recursively) if you have a very small set of ports (say 10-20) with very specific non-standard settings. Doing a...

This is how I have this scripted Process no configuration options for any ports at all -> do not call /usr/local/bin/poudriere options Process conditional configuration options for these ports only -> /usr/local/bin/poudriere options -n -C -j...

That works to install Windows 11, but it does not resolve the issue with bitlocker. Though with tpm passthrough, we don't even need this to install Windows 11 on bhyve.

Yes. Also, it's using DHCP. Also, forgot to mention, I see why my ISP modem isn't using DNS for one of its subnets, so it's no longer setting up my DNS hostname and network domain address like it used to. It's only using DNS for one of its...

In this, do I set my FreeBSD machine or my ISP modem as the gateway route path? I tried both, and neither worked. When I changed these settings, both settings showed on my device. My device still can use servers from my computer, but still can't...

I would cross-check with a 14.3 kernel on 14.0 userland. Did you compile stream on each platform from scratch? If yes, copy over the binary to see whether compiler differences are responsible. I don't think we have hardware performance counters...

Nope. You can do real work with a series of casts, it is not just a "pretend" construct. Example: uint32_t i = get_some_number(); i = (uint32) (char) i; Now i holds the sign extended 8 bit value it had before, loosing the upper bits. i = (uint32)...

Didn't find it in the Linux quirks table, but #269085 above contained the required quirks. Fixed by adding the following to /boot/loader.conf: # quirks for RUIZU MP3 player o_O hw.usb.quirk.0="0x10d6 0x1101 0 0xffff UQ_MSC_NO_GETMAXLUN"...

Simple question: is it safe to replace an existing /etc/rc with a fresh one coming from a more recent installation? Assuming, of course, that the original on was not modified at all during the years... I just noticed that my test VM (installed...

Yep, fsck can only fix issues if the filesystem is unmounted, or at most mounted read-only. That should be the case if you booted to single user mode though, unless you mounted it yourself before doing the fsck. You might be, incorrectly...

Well, as expected it was just a matter of time. Now https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:15:amd64/ shows also kmods_latest_0 and of course it works. The following 3 package(s) will be affected (of 0 checked): Installed packages to be UPGRADED...

Well wonders me that people do not do that, apparently most people. How I want that electronic Mail of my Bank do that! Instead of it, I receive files with very long names, spaces and special symbols in between. About indexing/tagging: that is...

But I guess patching up /etc/libmap.conf only for the PG's libraries is better, because PostgreSQL depends on too many 3-rd party ports which I'd have to install in the same temporary area. /usr/local/lib/libicudata.so.76...

I prefix filenames with (in doubt today's) local rfc3339 (scripted), put them in ~/Documents/2025/ and purge the yearly folders at will. Occasionally I tag with https://codeberg.org/mro/Tagger, inspired by...

Ok, after carefully reading libmap.conf manual I found what was wrong - I tested the executable with ldd using its relative path from the shell, such as ldd bin/psql, while listing its absolute path in libmap.conf. Feeding ldd with the absolute...
