Yes. It used to be on Amazon Prime US, seems to be Hulu now.

Is it this one? https://www.imdb.com/title/tt27724113/

A jail is an excellent use for a permanently internet-facing process. A process that accepts incoming data from the internet without solicitation. A process with an always-open port facing the internet. For example, an email server which waits...

You have RDNA4 card so you need drm-612-kmod. Check this thread on how to install this driver. It works. Just read the thread carefully because there is some outdated information that was updated in later posts. Also make sure you have...

I found this. https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=296330 I did as hugin instructed, taking glew out of USE_GL and adding - DBUILD_WITH_EPOXY=on to CMAKE_ARGS and it works correctly.l

My graphics config is pretty optimal, I’m not too eager to mess it up by changing drm-kmod versions ;)

So I ran tcpdump and I can see the network activity successfully going back and forth between the server and the client (again, that's not surprising because plex works when not transcoding and the app loads everything fine). So it looks like...

Nice catch, I’m going to try this ASAP. Thanks Edit: been there, done that. Works perfectly, as far as I can tell.

I'd try disabling both IOMMU and CPU virtualization in BIOS

Try selecting option 2 or 3

Maybe something with drm-kmod; I'd try to install a different one like drm-515-kmod or drm-61-kmod Edit: Either misread or wrong thread; that'd be overkill for just an app :p

Hello, I run FreeBSD 14.4-RELEASE on amd64 (AMD Ryzen 7 7840U w/ Radeon 780M Graphics), with X11 and XFCE. My pkg is set to use «latest». I’ve installed hugin-2025.0.1_1 from pkg and tried to use it but it crashed immediately with an error...

Quick note. There is no such thing as 16.0-RELEASE. Only 16.0-CURRENT which you should not be using. It's for developers working on the new version. You should only be trying to install 15.1-RELEASE.

The RPi 5 has 6x the floating point performance of that P4 at a TDP that’s 4x lower. It supports newer ports, codecs, and graphics libraries, arch extensions. It’s anemic (for heavy 3D stuff at least), but I wouldn’t call it a toy either. It...

How about a satellite dish and a magnetron from a microwave, would that not produce (if aligned/tuned exactly) enough interference on the satellite to make problems? Having some of these operate is within reach for non-state actors. And as...

I just did a pkg upgrade on 16.0-CURRENT and it installed 3.12 and de-installed 3.11 (good bit of other package reinstalls/etc); took a few mins and I rebooted fine 😁 Edit: Did pkg upgrade -f July 7th and noticed 311 again 🤷‍♂️

This misses multiple problems with AI/LLMS: 1. Skill erosion of AI users: https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-026-01947-1 2. AI code leading to more bugs even after a human reviews it...

I will say more go to local bank. Ask a little bit of money, for house with your wife. They will ask. What do you make net new on your account. Each month with proof. If not ok, see you later alligator. Come back later. But AI companies are...

You cannot escape. Its called "quantitative easining". Its money which does not exists goes to big banks then to small banks to investors. Who have big ideas but not for your good. The problem is inherit in economic system. And its not ai to...

Without digging on with this discussion too much, I would like to present a third option: Running Blender ~2.8 at full speed on even an ageing Pentium 4 workstation. It would give the better experience and allow you to get relatively large work...

All I can say is: - Don't take anything for granted. Things are a lot more unpredictable now. - Always strive to have an open mind. This is hard to do because our natural tendency is to have an opinion before getting all the facts, which is...

There are lots of (mostly Linux) how-tos out there about how to do this which instruct you to replace ${LOCALBASE}/share/icons/gnome/24x24/places/distributor-logo.png. This, of course requires root access and will make pkg_delete complain about...

Going a bit off topic briefly. Ubuntu adopted PA back around 2010 which broke all of my audio apps because they could no longer directly access the audio hardware. All apps had to link to the PA library and share the hardware through the PA...

ESR's still not available on CURRENT; anyone happen to know why? Main Firefox's "revamped" settings page is as-bad as Win11 with hiding stuff in hidden tab views and almost making Chromium look interesting... Like, seriously? What's the block...

I have never run PulseAudio. What does it give me? Can I enable it and disable it as and when I want to try it?

Have you tried using the onboard GPU to determine if the machine can still work?

I think the best way to build MFS images is poudriere image. Since it is simply a set of scripts it can be easily modified to suit your needs. https://man.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=poudriere-image...

Kind-of raises a question of open-source vs proprietary: Being a dev and accepting contributions also needs checks to avoid questionable code, whereas the time to cross-check "other's" code could be spent on dev. If I coded something, I could...

How can you tell what submissions have been coded using LLMs? If you forbid that people will just stop disclosing that fact.

I'd see driver bug, motherboard firmware bug, and device firmware issue as possibilities always worth considering too. If a device has issues only on USB3 for any reason, you can 'slowly' plug in the drive which will electrically connect only...

What file did you download to write to the USB stick and what software/steps did you use to write it? Anything else strange about the stick like it showing up as multiple USB devices to computers or have any passthrough USB ports on it? I've had...

I finished up work on my Quarter Wave Antenna with interchangeable elements. Soldering SMA element to tube tonight. Shown here with three short ground plane elements for pictures. These will be 48" long for start. Maybe 2 different sets of three.

Klara will be hosting a live Ask Me Anything (AMA) webinar session on June 30th at 11am EDT with Kyle Evans (FreeBSD Core team), Colin Percival (FreeBSD Release Engineer), and myself, Allan Jude (FreeBSD/ZFS developer). If you have questions...

C is already uncomfortably restricted, No sense crippling it any further. IMHO

The ideas of Solaris from the turn of the century (zfs, zones, smf...) remain an inexhaustible source of inspiration for FreeBSD....and there is nothing wrong with that. :-/

That's systemd. Not what FreeBSD is planning. With systemd they've been moving functions from the kernel into systemd. Sometimes this makes sense, i.e. TLS negotiation. Many times not. And, systemd has taken on a life of its own, like managing...

What in particular? I run everything as root. I am the only user. Tell me which program will specifically not run under root?

I misunderstood something about dbus. I have started it now. My RTL-SDR v4 dongle is detected and I can run rtl_fm and listen to a radio station. With dbus started I get:- W520# gqrx gr-osmosdr 0.2.0.0 (0.2.0) gnuradio...

Popularity and wide range of tools is indeed a large reason people choose git I suspect. That said, a small light standalone server like svnserve does tend to be lacking in the Git ecosystem (gitdaemon is close but has no authentication) and...

It is, but given how easy it is to self host just in a directory or via gitea and one of the other clone webservers, I'm not sure there's much of a reason not to use git at this point. There is a bit of a learning curve, but there are some...

Thank you so much for guiding and sharing excellent and helpful tips and information. I anticipate that this blunder of mine will help others to setup snapshots and cronjob even before they initiate any project. These truly are not optional if...

Ultimately, what's done is done. One of the banes of my experience is working out how to keep track of the data integrity and existence of files that I want. While modern computers are better than ever in terms of searching for things, file...

If the filesystem is using ZFS, I'd first check whether there are any snapshots available before trying more recovery tools. If there aren't any snapshots or backups, the chances of recovering a deleted SQLite database become much lower...

If you now have this working, please mark the thread as solved, It helps others who have the same problem. I never used to do this, but now, when I encounter old problems of mine which I come across occasionaly I see if the problem was solved...
