I got home today and got welcomed by frozen boot screen. Right after the copyright banner and console video properties are listed. I had to blacklist vboxdrv from loader prompt and then proceed into boot. Nothing else worked, and there were no...

It was old and bogus. Ip is new and improved! Seriously, my guess is someone looking to make a name for themselves. Ain't no one gonna get famous by fixing bugs. Re-designed and implemented the Linux network management tools? Hire that guy ASAP!

I haven't heard most of these jokes--I thought I knew all his stuff, but I was wrong--what a pleasant surprise. For Hedberg fans--it seems as if he's trying some new material--not all of it lands.

I've noticed an unusual behaviour in FreeBSD guests with VirtIO network adapters. The setup is simple: Host is FreeBSD (currently 15.0-RELEASE), same as the guest (or at least 14.3-RELEASE). There is a vtnet network adapter bridged to one of the...

How big is your monitor?

70% is pretty low. A German court found they can reproduce song lyrics 90%. That doesn't change that they don't store the original anywhere.

We have a saying about this. When "the children" are mentioned by lobbyists or law makers, put firmly one hand on your rights and one on your wallet.

Agencies? In California, the laws were passed by the legislature. It can only be changed by the legislature. So you need to contact about 120 elected legislators. Note that because of short term limits (6 years for the lower house, 12 for the...

Assuming you have Vulkan compatible hardware you can enable it on /compat/linux by creating a new "linux" service script (or edit the existing /etc/rc.d/linux service file, just replace linux_vlk with linux) with the following: #!/bin/sh # # #...

Konsole might render with GPU, and terminal output also slows down stuff (like warning-spam with compiling; I hide those to compile faster :p) Ptyxis and GNOME Terminal with GTK do Vulkan with GSK_RENDERER=vulkan

Hm, no one has addressed Lehey's question. Maybe they took the discussion to a private channel.

Yep, it's been overtaken by the AI bubble. The language doesn't matter now that you just tell a chatbot to write the code for you.

Will take very long to certify Rust for use. Both on a high (official) level and inside companies, down to teams.

Looking at the mailing list, I think they are deciding what "shot" is the correct one. So far two things: Overly modularise and reduce things. Typical developer mindset which creates DIY Linux-like platforms rather than operating systems...

when you need to install a web interface for something as simple as sending a document to a printer, something is wrong. It feels like systemd...

No, it is not. Period. It is perhaps easiest only for people that do want to take a little of time and learn before configuring. That user should be using MS Windows, not FreeBSD. I will not bloat my system for doing something like: cat...

Whilst I don't disagree in principal (after all, cups is generally needed for most printers anyway), the dependencies pulled in are fairly extreme for functionality simply to replace lpd. Highlight includes, not one but two python interpreters...

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.

Yep, it's been overtaken by the AI bubble. The language doesn't matter now that you just tell a chatbot to write the code for you.

Plus, I don't think there is reason to be suspicious, it's following the exact same hype cycle all trendy techs have done before. It always peaks with people being frankly fanatical about their tech, until comes the time where it's not new...

You generally won't see Rust on many job apps during our lifetime. But there is still a push by small but vocal companies to "sell" you new products (IDEs, books, courses) because there is less market competition compared to industry standard...

Much of the relevant emails are linked to via the post here.

Interesting. None here. Even for intern roles to try to capture some young talent. Defence / safety-critical job listings specifically are still very Java, C++, Ada/SPARK, C (in that approx order). I would have assumed a "safe" language would...

Really? It is included very often in job ads here (here is Norway, Europe).

What exactly was their excuse for obsoleting ifconfig?

We are still missing your last payment for the service contract.

LLMs do not store literal copies of the training material. Although they come close to be able to recite some.

Crivens that literally made me laugh out loud.

Yes I kind of want to try this also. :)

can you please show these scripts and how you set everything up ? Thanks in advance

Any differences on driver version 580.142 (landed at commit 0af72ff3039f33cbd95b8a8f364117181acc635c on latest [aka main] branch)? Note that it would pull in newly added graphics/egl-wayland2 (dma-buf based implementation) for non-legacy versions.

Don't forget to set a gateway if you go the static IP route (pun definitely intended). Or you will not be able to reach anything beyond your subnet. On the CLI: route add default 1.2.3.4 In rc.conf: defaultrouter="1.2.3.4" Or a specific static...

Another helpful thing is the man(8) ifconfig page. It has examples. For instance, you ask about two addresses on one interface, in the man page, search for alias. You'd want something like (using re0 as interface)...

Do you know which mailing list and month by chance? I checked hackers, and current for march and have not been able to find it so far.

Male DB9 connector on the tower? That's a serial port.

What did I miss?

Removed a bunch of posts. Will start culling users too if this continues.
