@oxy@social.bsdlab.au Nahh, just at the vintage protocol level, we have no control of the underlying ISP network. At least we can remove some hops to our core, hahahaha.

@oxy@social.bsdlab.au MTU will adjust typically on the fly and only become an issue with extremely big links (but those are running jumbo and are carefully managed). Good thing is, just use it, you don't need to micro manage it like vintage IP. Cool things like QnQ/VXLAN work perfectly fine. GRE, not so sure it has the scope to be more modern (VXLAN is typically used now).

@oxy@social.bsdlab.au Yeah, the older tunnels are just not where they need to be for #IPv6, they were invented before ratification. Like the address space, some technology we need to move on from, to a) reduce tech debt, b) use modern, flexible technology designed for the address space to solve the problems. But you already knew that :-)

If Wayland wasn't written on linux for linux and followed the traditional, open model, then there would have been more people that could have assist on the project, yet they opted for Linuxisms, making it hard for everyone else. FWIW, Xenocara is working fine under OpenBSD.

LNL 403, you were basically in the BSD camp, without actually thinking it. Anyway, OpenSSL was a shitshow. OpenBSD saw that after heartbleed and created LibreSSL and yanked out all the shit that shouldn't be used in the modern day as well as fix the poor design choices. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GnBbhXBDmwU . Still waiting on the GNU camp to fork OpenSSH (which they easily can because of the permissive license, but they wont).

@daedalus@eigenmagic.net Even with 1 VDEV, often scrubbing will start to trigger issues. I run a USB enclosure with 2 disks (granted on FreeBSD) as one of my backup targets without issue. I do use parkverbot though to keep the drives from spinning down, this is the real killer of external USB storage.
