Laptop's good; gotta re-backup my wiki and then it's the server's turn :p

If software is web browser, it will need age info and will ask the OS for that info. If the software is local Chess game or desktop calculator or word processor - it does not have age limitation and does not need this info. (This is how I...

Nah; that'd take down self-hosting opportunities (plus I'd like to think I turned out ok browsing un-sanctioned back then :p) It's the hosts themselves that are the problem: Maybe question the chat platform that has nefarious activities going on...

I have my Brother MFC-L3780CDW working fine with the anywhere driver. I have a page on it at https://srobb.net/cliscanprint.html#FreeBSD

What software would require it? Wouldn't those apps need changed to know about the OS age setting?

Looks like said post was deleted? (I get an "Oops, we couldn't find,,:

WI1 chip1: Realtek RTL8812BU doesn't seem to be supported in any FreeBSD version. To be sure, you could ask a wireless FreeBSD developer on freebsd-wireless@FreeBSD.org mailing list.

I've already posted two versions of src script (the previous post), but I think I finally settled on this, more improved version of that script, that now is capable of locating sources for kernel (by default, system calls), libraries (by default...

Is any OS besides MidnightBSD taking any kind of stance against the implementation? What about users? Has any OS board marched down to CA/etc to voice their opinion yet? A US president can get crowds without directly thinking about em; where's...

Interesting typo. Seems correct either way; to scrap vs to scrape.

By the way, why do I have all that multilibs with x86-64-v2 and x86-64-v3 if I am building for the native architecture? Is there a way to get rid of them?

So now you have a job in FreeBSD in Ghana, if I understood you correctly. Tell us more!

These are no gordian knot problems for AI. It is going to provide a statistical answer. It doesn't possess curiosity or common sense. If it has data in the model, if there is enough data online to input, it may provide a statistically sound...

Well, I discovered that the FFMPEG option in gegl lead to this SIGSEGV somehow. Core file got no symbols and I suppose some erroneous jump/call address since not very meaningful code at $pc. But ffmpeg itself works good enough.

You get that message when installing www/node24. Because 'node' and 'npm' have been split up into separate packages a long time ago.

Bypassing LHR limits was interesting :p If NVIDIA released LHR cards to combat the mining craze for gamers, why's AI fair-game? A GPU purchase is a purchase :p

After installing... :- How am I supposed to know if I need npm?

You know why you don't get your hands on NVIDIA blobs. Well the chips allow much , much more, and as you are a very bad bad boy, you would abuse :)

My server ran on an unlocked and OC'd Phenom II X3 720 for a bit :p Bring back core unlocking! It was cool buying a cheaper triple-core, a motherboard advertising unlock capabilities, and waiting in suspense for POST to see if a core actually...

I used to have many overclocked computers in the mancave. But CPU overclocking is dead now.

Let te beast go,

Perseverance.

Is this repeatable? Can you get a backtrace from the core file? An instruction set mismatch should not lead to SIGSEGV.

sudo rm `which pulseaudio`

Who is obliged by that law? Where sits 'FreeBSD' development? Who is responsible?

Just delete that ports tree (poudriere ports -d -p local) and create a fresh new one (poudriere ports -c -p local).

misc/claude-code Have fun.

You won't necessarily need to build the entirety of libreoffice. If you check the dependences on freshports, editors/libreoffice does not have pulesaudio as a dependency. I didn't go through all the dependencies, but looking through...

I recently upgraded to 15.0-RELEASE and all was working well. Last night I tidied up by removing the old poudriere jail 13amd64 no longer required as I have no 13.5_RELEASE systems left to maintain. Since then: /usr/local/bin/poudriere ports -up...

Yeah, this is how they would approach it. Its why SecureBoot was not so well received because it is pushing that frontier. You would need to piss around with jailbreaks for every western machine or try your luck importing from changing routes...

China probably wouldn't get behind that, at least on US's level :p

That will do nothing to stop the law spreading. Soon your new terms would outlaw the use of FreeBSD everywhere. True, without these new terms the law would outlaw FreeBSD itself, but all they achieve is to shift the blame. FOSS of all kinds...
