    Huh, interesting. Are you publishing the results of that testing somewhere?

    Mac OS was awful. OS X was amazing. macOS feels like increasingly typical design-by-committee rudderless crapware by a company who wishes it didn't have to exist alongside iOS.

    RPKI is obviously half-baked scareware, but why anyone cares what technology the US government, much less "white house" thinks should be used is beyond me

    I use this facility on FreeBSD (dcons) to do debugging. Works great. There's a knob to explicitly turn on DMA, though. It looks like Linux has something similar. Is that not suffic…

    No mention of the planned end of 32-bit? Packrat looks interesting. Removing ports that build and work fine but are "unmaintained" is pretty irritating.

    Oof, Aironet, too. RIP kings. Seems like they're paving the way for removal of all 16-bit PC Card support like FreeBSD.

    The vast majority of spam we get that isn't trivially rejected (DMARC, malformed HELO, etc) is from real, actual gmail. But they sure do care about _incoming_ spam.

    the shlib dependency stuff is pretty broken even in FreeBSD. apk is probably my favorite package manager experience. cool project, thank you

    Just turning off the enormous amount of crap written to syslog would probably have added years to the eMMC life. Why did it take them so long to do that? If you drive a car with th…
