Awesome read about Meltdown protection, crazy kernel stuff and the collaboration between #Illumos, #DragonFlyBSD and #OpenBSD https://blog.cooperi.net/a-long-two-months
I could totally do this.
It would be evil, but I could.
And amusing, yes. But evil.
Evil... amusing... evil... amusing... #thestruggleisreal
Getting the Patreon video had a cost. I had to do an interview.
Today I have learned that there is a 1:1 wordstar clone called wordtsar, that's actively developed.

Pro tip for speakers. If you record a command line demo make sure to increase the font size to a value that's readable behind second row #hip18
Ready for day two of #HIP18
Nice. Hack in Paris offers no-pictures stickers by default. Is that now the influence of CCC or GDPR :D
People who play games: Please just give us solid single-player experiences
Game devs: MULTIPLAYER CRPGS!!!!!!!

If your company uses #OpenBSD or its products (pf, openssh, libressl) bring up donations to keep this software project running that provides code that basically the entire internet runs on. It takes more than just good will to run this!
IMO individual users should consider monthly donations e.g. via PayPal.
We have servers run by MIT, CCC, Pixiv, Dwango, La Quadrature and various pirate parties. We need more stuff like that. Imagine a Wikimedia server. Or Canonical.
If anyone would be interested, the game I worked on that was released last year is on the Steam Summer sale right now with 50% off :) https://store.steampowered.com/app/331870/AER_Memories_of_Old/ #gamedev #videogame
Regular reminder that if you use #OpenBSD, a great help to developers is to send your machines' dmesg outputs to dmesg <AT> openbsd.org.
If you'd like to help other *BSD users, regardless of what *BSD you use, submit your machines' dmesg outputs to http://dmesgd.nycbug.org/
It's free to do, and works best when we all chip in!
Continuously pressing "reload" in various apps and websites to check if the train tomorrow is scheduled or cancelled is somewhat depressing.
Just planning my trip to #HackInParis and guess who is on strike ... the #SCNF.
Getting to France without taking the car is not funny...

If hyper threading and all these other glaring security holes, esp for virtualized environments, were known back when SPARC and other ISAs weren't dead yet...do you think they'd have still died out?
Seems like all the x86 speed gains touted as a reason for Intel superiority over competing ISAs turns out to be complete BS
Can we get SPARC back?
Ein interessanter und verständlicher Beitrag zum Thema die Macht von Facebook und Datenschutz. Vielleicht geht dem ein oder anderen ja mal ein Licht auf, wie unachtsam mit den eigenen Daten umgegangen wird.
Vielen von uns, ist das nicht Neues. Vielleicht aber für Freunde, Familie und Bekannte.
