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 dmesgd.nycbug.org/

It's free to do, and works best when we all chip in!

:thinkhappy: what if, an alternative to both mastodon _and_ pleroma, which is much less memory-heavy and is a single executable file you drop on your server

help us out #rustodon

hey all, I have been pouring through (and loving) the #FreeBSD handbook, faqs, old message threads, etc. I have also purchased a copy of The Design and Implementation of the 4.4 BSD Operating System.

But with all the excellent documentation, books, videos, etc out there I wanted to ask y'all for some recommendations!

What are your favorite resources? What books stick out to as critical in your BSD adventures?

Curr reading up on jails and using ansible to automate my sys config. So happy :)

Launching BSDjobs.com (with a job post from Reyk Flöter!)

I’ve just launched the site and—what a coincidence—Reyk Flöter has started looking for a developer for a new project (in Zurich, non-remote). Please contact Reyk, if you’re available or can recommend a friend.

Thank you!

The repository includes Bash completion scripts for the following software at the moment: , ,

If you are using a with a controller inside then you might want to check out , which is an alternative to the the Laser Draw () program that comes with the cheap Chinese . K40 Whisperer reads SVG and DXF files, interprets the data and sends commands to the K40 controller to move the laser head and control the laser accordingly.

But my first thought was getting running on it so it probably isn't the device I want.

@mpts You scared people moving the DogsOfFreeBSD page!

Can you fix the link in the committers guide?

Rejoice! , a nonsense activity generator is now available in the .

What is genact, you ask?

Pretend to be busy or waiting for your computer when you should actually be doing real work! Impress people with your insane multitasking skills. Just open a few instances of genact and watch the show. genact has multiple scenes that pretend to be doing something exciting or useful when in reality nothing is happening at all.

Cool. There's a new #activitypub platform for blogging called #plume, meant to be an alternative to #medium. This could be a pretty big deal, because it means orgs can go all in on the #fediverse. They can have a #mastodon/#pleroma acct for quick communication and host their blog on plume instead of medium and all of it will federate, so users can choose how to follow and communicate with them.

Mastodon could get their blog off medium and @deadsuperhero can get #wedistribute onto the fediverse.
