So... the EU considers DNS critical infrastructure. So far so good.
"As a consequence of this directive’s quite broad definition of DNS, every organisation or individual running their own DNS will have to comply by registering their DNS service with ENISA, the EU agency for Cyber Security."

I was gifted some neat old books today. Should keep me occupied for a few years. At this rate my understanding of computers might make it to the 1990s before I'm 100 years old.
Best wishes 2021!

I find this an interesting and understandable read about how the #covid-19 #vaccine works.
Reverse Engineering the source code of the BioNTech/Pfizer #SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine.

32 bits (still) matters!
https://stafwag.github.io/blog/blog/2020/11/15/32bits_still_matters/
I used OPNsense on my pcengines Alix 2d13 firewall.
The Alix 2d13 is a nice motherboard with a Geode CPU 32 bits x86 CPU.
I migrated to OPNsense after pfSense dropped support for 32 bits. Unfortunately, OPNsense also dropped support for 32 bits CPUs in the 19.1.7 release. I decided to install FreeBSD on my Alix to use it as my firewall.
Upgrade FreeBSD on a Raspberry Pi 2
https://stafwag.github.io/blog/blog/2020/11/01/upgrade_freebsd_on_my_rpi2/
I recently installed FreeBSD on my raspberry-pi 2 to use it as my firewall.
The FreeBSD version that I installed was a FreeBSD 12.2 Pre-Release. FreeBSD 12.2 has been released this week.
So I was looking for a way to update my Raspberry Pi to FreeBSD 12.2.

Youtube-dl is a legitimate tool with a world of a lawful uses. Demanding its removal from Github is a disappointing and counterproductive move by the RIAA. https://github.com/github/dmca/blob/master/2020/10/2020-10-23-RIAA.md
Use a raspberry-pi 2 as a firewall with FreeBSD
I was using OPNsense on my pcengines alix firewall and was quite happy with it.
Unfortunately, OPNsense also dropped support for 32 bits CPU’s in the 19.1.7 release. I decided to install FreeBSD on the alix to use it as my firewall.

'zfs hold' avoids unintended 'zfs destroy' of a snapshot
From man zfs:
zfs hold [-r] tag snapshot - Adds a single reference, named with the tag argument, to the specified snapshot or snapshots. Each snapshot has its own tag namespace, and tags must be unique within that space. If a hold exists on a snapshot, attempts to destroy that snapshot by using the "zfs destroy" command returns EBUSY.
