This has got nothing to do with "built it right for FreeBSD." The exploit inserted a blob (key) that made use of the fact that sshd on Linux systems using systemd, needed some way for sshd to be managed by systemd. OpenSSH needed to be linked...

This looked most interesting. https://github.com/robertdfrench/ifuncd-up From the linked article: Some Linux distros modify OpenSSH to depend on SystemD SystemD depends on xz-utils, which uses GNU IFUNC Ergo, xz-utils ends up in the address...

I saw this recent video mentioned on HN and (having watched it) thought it was pretty good: The Internet Was Weeks Away From Disaster and No One Knew Just to add the HN link: Related HN thread

One of the best Rock sounds ever

You could say (takes off Sunglasses) it registers in your mind. (The Who Scream YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH)

I guess when it hits the Register, you know it's really happening.

Due to this bug: https://www.freebsd.org/security/advisories/FreeBSD-EN-23:12.freebsd-update.asc You should be able to jump from 13.5 to 15.0 in one go. But again, just make sure you have the latest patch release of 13.5, due to this bug...

A normalfreebsd-update should do that.

Since the creation of C and C++, there have been many different programming languages in vogue. None have outclassed C or C++. So, even the disk will end, and the favorites will still be there.

Yeah I saw that on the man page too, but there is no /etc/zfs/zpool.cache hence the need for the correct "-U" switch for the zdb command to work as expected and the actual default in fact seems to be /boot/zfs/zpool.cache.

1 case in Dutch that I know is a postal code followed up by a town name on a letter or package. No idea where it originates from but it's done a lot. It may have to do with the code format xxxx yy that contains a space itself but should be...

Same here though I don't do it anymore. Took typing class in high school with Mrs. Fischer. Was only one of three guys in the class. The rest were all girls cause girls would just become secretaries, right?

Hi, thanks for the clarification. So without explicitly setting the (default) cachefile property, I think my zdb command should have been - using the example of a pool called zroot on a different machine: paul@zoo-FreeBSD-portable:-16.0-CURRENT...

cracauer@ , thanks my mental shorthand took over. Yes, that's what I was taught, after a sentence, not after, Mr. Whoever.

The two spaces only appear after a period that terminates a sentence. Not after one for an abbreviation. That is how you tell the two cases apart.

Boeing?

This is s Singapore register, from its google reviews this company is known for scam sites.

FTFY Yes, I know what that results in. My dad was an aerospace engineer and that is where his most colorful language would come out. These folks still use Fortran and I still have a "deck" consisting of F66 to F95 code, all in one executable...

The IP belongs to ns1.server145.iseencloud.com (the domain is hosted on iseencloud.com nameservers) and was very likely used as a temporary place holder ("nobody has uploaded a website to this domain yet").

Dutch and German have the same roots, and for me the first reading was  Belästigungsdienst, which means "bothering service". Quite a good match, yes?

Note: this is an undervalued tip: just type the name of the domain plus the word 'reputation' or 'scam' into a search engine before you hand over money. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=grandaccessinvestment+reputation There's also TrustPilot...

Had a close friend I made fun of who, around 1980, went to a community college to learn COBOL cause he worked at a bank doing low paying work. Until he died maybe 10 years ago, he was still programming in COBOL for that same bank.

My knowledge of zfs is still very basic, so I'm unsure about the role of the cachefile or the significance of the cachefile pool property being set or unset, but any thoughts on the following? paul@dell-FreeBSD-portable-15.0-STABLE ~ $ uname...

Xlibre is getting some adoption. Looks like it's getting stable. https://www.theregister.com/2026/02/24/ghostbsd_plans_to_adopt_xlibre/?td=keepreading

The IP (202.4.48.211, until DNS disappeared) belongs to Vodafone Samoa: <isp@vodafone.com.ws> is the abuse address. Note: it's a dynamic IP address, scam sites get hosted on dial-ups or trojaned home PC's a lot. The actual owner/operator will be...

There are a lot of commercial scientific packages in Fortran that will never be re-written. They get deployed with Kubernetes now, but they are Fortran nontheless.

Now wait a minute. I have no way of knowing but I'd bet it's talked about online. I'm pretty sure Fortran is used in a lot of scientific (at least) programming on modern software somewhere. Perhaps in a university setting or highly mysterious...

So the seller was not Amazon, it was a third-party seller on Amazon? Did they send anything at all, like a brick? Or no package arrived?

This extends the range, not limit it. Smaller prefix -> bigger range. Similar to IPv4, a /16 is a bigger subnet (i.e. more host addresses) than a /24.

Create a port for it, and let the port create the package. Rename the configuration file to *.sample and in your pkg-plist you define it as a "sample" file. This is from security/sudo/pkg-plist for example: @sample etc/sudo.conf.sample This...

Just to jump in, we've never had problems returning things to Amazon or get things fixed when something's gone missing.

Sometimes, engineers think they are smarter than everybody else and end up making very silly decisions. The fact that POSIX standards define the end of a sentence as needing two spaces after the period is asinine, regardless of the technical...

Unless it's absolutely required syntax, I don't double-space. I saw a few apps that did it but thought they were exceptions and didn't know it was a standard :p

I wasn't realistically expecting a refund (was a digital game DLC and well past 30 days), but a human on chat told me they'd put it through. Didn't get it days later, and later chat told me that previous rep was mistaken 😆

Hrmm...I was always taught--perhaps by my mother, perhaps by my 8th grade typing teacher in the 60's--to put two spaces after a period. I do it here as well. As for God, when I was talking to Her the other day, She mentioned that you sometimes...

Please let me explain, cheap package , never received. Amazon keeps me in A.I. loop. Staffing telephone cost them more. But honnest, NO. -Cannot contact vendor -No e-mail address of vendor -No telephone of vendor -No address of vendor Not able...

I agree with Alain De Vos. Firstly Bezos is garbage. He makes workers there miserable--from what I read, white collar as well as in the warehouses. The money saved by treating them like that is not something that he couldn't afford. For me, the...

Yes have this same experience. But Amazon did not allowed in this specific case , on there interface to contact vendor. Got vendor information different. Send an E-mail. Will come back when i have more information. The thing is i personally...

No problems with Amazon. Had some packages disappear, not be delivered at least. Got refunded fairly quickly. They don't do this in the Netherlands, and I presume not in Belgium either. Delivery will send you back to Amazon, as receiver you...
