Not sure if it was called "beta" or "alpha" and "closed" is of course up to interpretation, but it was indeed by invitation. Swedish law at the time (still?) had a clause about permitting sharing copyrighted ma

Firstly, thank you for engaging and trying to enlighten me. I do understand why capability delegation is useful and I am familiar with using Unix sockets to delegate the control of daemons using socket permissions, which feels similar to wh

Having played the Famicom Disk System, I will also say that the load times are abysmal . I think it is Castlevania II that has an autosave function for the Japanese release which was for the FDS and it is so darn slow that I would recommen

Thank you for sharing the write up! Not an OpenBSD expert by any means, but two small pieces of minor feedback as everything else you wrote mirrors my own setup and experience. Firstly, unless you are really strapped for space on say a

I disagree, but maybe it is a cultural thing for those of us that are more used to functional styles of programming? I was taught method chaining as a style by a seasoned JavaScript and Ruby programmer myself and I do not find the semantics

I mean, are we surprised? Linux has on the order of millions times more users and funds (probably not developers though, but who knows). Thus, if there is any financial viability of a port I am certainly expecting Linux to "move"

It really is and not just that. WireGuard being natively supported makes configuring your peers as easy as dumping the last of these example lines into /etc/hostname.wg[0-9]: https://man.openbsd.org/wg#EXAMPLES Si

It feels like Alpine tries to imitate the OpenBSD installer somewhat as well, but it is just not the same as it forces you to make choices between SSH servers, NTP daemons, etc. So, it still very much feels like the Linux "pick and mix

Yes, and OpenBSD being a fork of NetBSD still carries some of that spirit.

It really is impressive, but it is also fair to point out that it uses the MXM-1 mapper which only came into existence in 2022 [1]. I find it pointless to argue whether it is "cheating" or not as the technology it uses was used fo

There are some library functions to support databases in base, but that is probably not what you are asking for. Likewise, to the best of my knowledge there is no TUN/STUN server. However, you likely have both in ports. Not sure if y
