@joel@gts.tumfatig.net … and this is where my friend, after I showed him my Fedi timeline on my phone, decided to mess with me by declaring that all social networks where IT peeps lurk are "the same" 😭 😆 #FailedSale

Believe it or not, evidence suggests that the AI problem has its deepest roots in the same demographic that thought curl | sh was a deployment strategy and copy-pasting code into production was a form of testing 🤔

@jaypatelani@bsd.network Wouldn't an edited Beastie have been a better choice, since VxWorks uses the Berkeley Sockets API created for 4.2BSD? 😉 @NASA@mstdn.social

Silly question: does @EuroBSDCon@bsd.network accept donations to help support recording and/or streaming the event for those who can't attend? 🤔

If the "black box" doesn't care what language you throw at it, Rust is already overengineering it. Just use Assembly and experience the problem in its purest form 😆

If Mullvad VPN AB really endorses the Örebro Party's view that "Sweden belongs to the Swedes," then I assume they'll stop accepting money from the rest of the world's "parasites" and offer their services only in Sweden.

This is not the first time I've had to warn someone against using articles like this one https://www.freebsdsoftware.org/blog/nextcloud-freebsd-setup.html or anything from this site at all.
Sure, they include a "Not affiliated with The FreeBSD Project" disclaimer, but I would love to have a way to warn new users.

@oxy@social.bsdlab.au With those couple of clients still running Windows servers, every year I take the CEO out for drinks hoping they will drunkenly sign a napkin agreeing to migrate to FreeBSD, or at least Linux … still no luck 😂

Recently, I've noticed that many people who publicly share their first impressions of FreeBSD consistently highlight two things: the documentation and the community.
So, thank you to everyone who helps make this community a better place, and in particular to those who devote their time and effort to improving the project's documentation.
#ThankYouTuesday

After ~5.000 years of recorded history, it seems that humanity still hasn't learned to recognize its own limitations when making decisions with profound consequences for future generations: coal, oil, nuclear energy, plastics, so-called artificial intelligence ... and pineapple on pizza.
