Thanks for your input on this herrbischoff Appreciate it! The information might help me (and others) solve this issue, especially the load on boot, If I'm lucky. Hoping for the best! Sounds like you have made some digging about this. Since I...

They also offer it hosted.

Looking through lost+found I see lots of files which simply consist of binary zeroes. How do I identify files which consist of binary zeroes?

Big server and a pool of machines that boot via PXE (diskless). Each physical machine can boot any of the OS installs based on what the server says, there is no fixed assignment.

Not always. For example Samsung allows to create a a bootable USB disk. I used it, and it worked.

Likely the next generation of juniors will be querying why its not re-written in MegaLang2126. And that FreeBSD is *still* dying because the masses aren't interested in C. Of course the Linux kernel will be an eclectic mess of C, Rust and...

When it comes to, ahem, "adult AI" then I'd rather rely on ComfyUI and some specific models ("checkpoints") from CivitAI. Also open source (actually developed in my favorite language of Python) and actually runs local and thus doesn't try to...

If you want to build a nuke or two it is more straightforward to directly look up the documents that Klaus Fuchs gave the Soviet Union. At least those are proven to work.

These statements somewhat contradict themselves a bit. Normally a user doesn't have r/w access to system folders and it's also common practice to prevent anonymous access into home directories of random users. Sorry, bit of a lame comment from...

When I have something that's not in ports, I create a dir in my user home/. Maybe this will help you: hier.

You aren't telling us anything beyond "it doesn't work". Need details of what you did and what response you are getting.

Lua is utilized in base system and it has broken my installation before. I don’t think many know that. Sorry Lua community. But Python runs a rigorous development process with PEP and it compiles directly down to C. Has been around for a bit of...

What have you got on your Home Lab

Hey all I've had this issue for some time now but never got around to post it here. I'll post the error messages I get from knot DNS, however the issue is more general and happens in a similar fashion in my nginx and my hedgedoc jail. I have a...

No. If no one is interested in adding new devices or updating for existing devices, /usr/src/sys/dev/ shouldn't be updated, but it's continuously updated. And for USB devices, if no one is interested in adding new devices...

It doesn't seem really modular. Does a minimal concept prototype installation exist? What's the problem with running it virtual/emulated, apart from lack of fast direct GPU access for the speed? That can be considered 1 program...

I use $HOME/usr_$arch-$os/bin for the case that I'm on an NFS homedir. /opt is where I put self-compiled larger packages meant for the whole machine.

You need a program running the thing, such as llama.cpp. And there are many size variants of this model, you need to pick one to fit your hardware and speed expectations. Some assembly required.

It should be made to a normal installable program so it can be documented. I see no reason for some complex deep system integration. It can be an application that runs under a normal user unless it's hiding things.

To update disk firmware you usually use the vendor-supplied tool, which of course is windows only.

Then the issue is on the host or your router. Not the FreeBSD guest. Can you ping the default gateway address?

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=291690 is in a state of an unanswered question at the end.

I was just wondering if it possible to update firmware of disks. I have a Toshiba 500GB disk which is just unbelievably slow and though here may be a possibility of a firmware upgrade to quicken it up.

"Stopped boot" exactly where? Did you boot with -v and take a photo?

You've done ls -lo /media/da0s3/media/FreeBSD-ARM/var/ and confirmed it doesn't have schg flag at 5th column, right? If it was created with schg flag at the first place, it wouldn't allow you to delete it. If so, you need to do chflags -R noschg...

Thanks T-Aoki. I thought I had checked this but apparently not, or did it wrongly, but anyway I have got rid of it now.

There is a dwm port. I just run make extract on /usr/ports/x11-wm/dwm then copy /usr/ports/x11-wm/dwm/work/dwm-6.8 (or whatever version) to $HOME, then create and edit config.h. The link to your dotfiles can be useful. I have my own...

I've just recently come back to FreeBSD after a period away and I had forgotten just how good core has been on the whole. I logged in and after a few years of modern Windows and Linux, I had forgotten what it's like to use an OS where there are...

Is there a default location in FreeBSD for user's installed binaries that are system-wide used? Something like /opt in Linux FS. Or have I simply to utilize ~/.local/bin? I see that /usr/local/bin is already populated with system bins and I don't...

TL; DR - if "you" (as in anyone using FreeBSD, myself included) wanted a more easy life, you should have selected a different operating system. On the other hand, if you want it interesting, stick with FreeBSD.

I am not talking about /var/empty as I mentioned. This what I want to get rid of:- /media/da0s3/media/FreeBSD-ARM/var/empty I can't identify any flags associated with this file.

What is stopping me deleting var/empty ? This is not /var/empty but part of an old backup filesystem which I want to delete. I'm not aware about any flags that this file may have, BICBW. How do I delete it?

It work, but don't expect all games to magically works. With the one from games/linux-steam-utils, you can run both linux natives games and windows natives one with the help of emulators/wine-proton.

“Inside every large program is a small program struggling to get out.”

I know this is an older comment, but I just noticed this thread and well... got curious. No offense, but I strongly disagree; it would become a huge hassle. Thing is... there's a lot going on within the Python source base and if you then check...

It shouldn't be an option. Far before, once perl was in base. But as the lifetime of single version of perl was toooooooooo short for base FreeBSD support lifecycle (at the moment, 5 years or more per branch) and backward compatibilities are NOT...

Don't think zfs-autobackup does any HTTP requests, so CVE-2025-13836 would never get hit. Even if it did, at most you would simply run out of memory. Annoying but not "dangerous". Unless you're running this on some important server, it might take...

Webserver and cert's pretty secure: https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html?d=swftprimtk.com&hideResults=on Not quite a reputation check though (looks like Let's Encrypt/free cert, and I have 1-notch higher on security :cool:)

yes, it's normal to set an absurd time in the past for a resource that they want to not be cached. see also the cache-control and pragma headers.
