Well the "good" new is, OpenBSD and NetBSD still uses CVS, even for packages. So this will not work on those systems. I do not know about FreeBSD. Security by obscurity :) But I have been seeing docs indication those projects a

A wrangler using software just does not "compute" to me. But I guess this is our new world. I drove a CJ for many years until it rusted out from under me and the engine seized, but I thought it was great, I went everywhere with i

Fro me, DESQview. Microsoft tried to buy it in order to use its tech in their windows system. I wonder how things would be today if they were able to purchase it. But DESQview said "no". Instead it went into a slow death spiral

Personally I think we could end up like the old SF series Incorporated. 95% of the worlds population living in hellish conditions, 5% living a great life. Back to serfdom that is. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incorpor

We started seeing the "smoke" when Reagan became President after Carter put Solar Panels on the White House. Each President (& Congress) since then kowtowed to the Fossil Fuel industry to varying degrees. The GOP was the lead

I think it can happen. The big question, how often a player at a high level gets to a point where a promotion can happen ? For highly rated players, I think a resignation would occur before a promotion happens. So in general, promotions th

Curious if this is similar to capabilities FreeBSD has had for ages ? But I wish they would have chosen pledge(2)/unveil(2) from OpenBSD instead. Added that to your programs is so easy even I can do it. I know that someone in Linux tr
