Disagree with you about crypto, it allows me to purchase high quality drugs online. Also disagree with you about "IoT", I use zigbee devices that I can control remotely. What seems like "obvious garbage" to you, might be

I use FreeBSD and Linux. I am not married to any operating system. For some reason, every time FreeBSD is put in a positive light there is always a lot of Linux(-only) users who has to put FreeBSD down. I don’t understand why. Would be inte

Still, that option exists, and doesn’t for FreeBSD. FWIW I switched from Debian to FreeBSD 25 years ago as my main OS.

Ok, I prefer to use software which is future compatible, like ZFS, which is 128-bit. “The file system itself is 128 bit, allowing for 256 quadrillion zettabytes of storage. All metadata is allocated dynamically, so no need exists to preallo

I have used many of the appliance operating systems in existence, including TrueNAS over the years, hence why I’ve come to the conclusion I’ve come to. I used to evangelise them, particularly FreeNAS and pfsense. I used them for years and I

But you are setting up and configuring a unix system, just with a third party gui bolted on. Why do you think using FreeBSD as a NAS complicates your life?

Ok, sounds complicated compared to a basic FreeBSD install.

My advice, skip the TrueNAS and go straight to FreeBSD. It's a simple operating system to maintain and it requires minimal setup to use as a NAS.

I disagree. The freedom loving hippie hackers of the 90s you can mostly find in the BSD communities, in my not so humble opinion.

I am a frequent traveller(literally have the star alliance card). Although I’ve never stayed in a hotel without bathroom doors, they frequently have sliding doors which don’t seal properly. So that’s the first thing I look out for nowadays.

"Linux" is mostly controlled by a few corporations and their interests. It's been a loooooooooong time since it was a grass roots movement. I don't know about you, but corporate dictates always leave a bad taste in my mo

Airdrop is a proprietary format and doesn’t work on my laptop, which runs FreeBSD. Please stop excusing this anti social behaviour.
