@netbsd@mastodon.sdf.org Hey. Would ebook readers such as #Kobo and #Pocketbook which permit custom OS be good hardware donations?

I want to publicly thank @dch@bsd.network
The FreeBSD port of littleFedi was already ready at release time, and it’s really well done.
One of the peculiarities of littleFedi is that it was developed and tested first on the BSDs, then on illumos, and only later on Linux.
The first public instance, my own @stefano@rpi0w.stefanomarinelli.it account, runs on a Raspberry Pi Zero W with NetBSD.
I don’t think many social platforms have started out on NetBSD in recent years.

It was great to see everybody again at #EuroBSDCon2026. Sorry if we missed you, but there is always #EuroBSDCon2027! :)
And... #OpenBSD 8.0 is around the corner!
25 new VMs were added and 78 VMs were renewed. 🫰
We donated €1420 to the #OpenBSD Foundation, €71840 since we started.
Thank you, our users, and OpenBSD developers for an awesome OS!
Stay safe, healthy & sane!

Look closer you might find something familiar 😁
Traditional hosting company:
“We had a Linux crash. Or maybe systemd. Or KVM. Possibly a kernel issue. There is also a non-zero chance aliens interfered with our servers.
We’re not entirely sure what happened.
Sorry for the inconvenience.”
OpenBSD Amsterdam:
“We had a crash.
One of the OpenBSD developers looked at it and is now patching OpenBSD so it won’t happen again.”
Who’s the boss now? 😎
Thank you, @OpenBSDAms@mastodon.bsd.cafe !

Ok, I know. Cursed, but I started to use keepassxc as a kind of bookmarks manager for normal browsing, too now 🙈
Found it handy if you change the default browser without having to import/export bookmarks from the old to the new one... 🤷♀️

Day 18
Upon login on the first console, I configured ~/.profile to auto-start an X session. Upon exit, the user is logged out of the console:
if [ -z "$DISPLAY" ] && [ "$(tty)" = "/dev/constty" ]; then
exec startx > "$HOME/.xlog" 2>&1
fi

Reposting this because I got
#RunBSD stickers at #EuroBSDcon2026 and can now illustrate the post with a proper image :D Also updated the temperatures screenshot.
So that's basically how much watts are #NetBSD and #OpenBSD using by default on this AOOSTAR WTR Pro NAS machine and how to have #FreeBSD use less watts as possible while still operating Jail and #bhyve services.

Day 6
Getting acquainted with the 'vi' editor, which on NetBSD is the 'nvi' version. I created a '~/.exrc' file with a few options for more comfortable use:
$ cat .exrc
set showmode ruler
set number
set searchincr iclower
set tabstop=4
set shiftwidth=4
set expandtab

Might I suggest a look at the BSDs? NetBSD has declared no AI, but is the most mysterious one. @stefano@mastodon.bsd.cafe and @dwarmstrong@fosstodon.org are doing cool stuff with it.
Linux is living long enough to become the villain.
In a systemd suit.
