QEMU is fantastic. I think for spinning up a VM just to try out something, virtualbox is still a good option because of its gui and its simplicity. QEMU is extremely powerful however, and I'm glad it exists.

Try it in a VM first. It's actually helpful to try it that way first, so you can used to how it works. If you can afford it, get a used thinkpad....a t430 or t420 should be pretty cheap, and will run free/net/open without pro

netflix definitely gives back to the freebsd project. They run their appliance that delivers netflix content on FreeBSD-current, the development branch

that lwn.net article is from 10 years ago...is it still accurate?

haha...I thought it could be something like that. Seeing "linukhovod" made me think it was something linux related. I guess breeding and raising linux/bsd systems is kind of what sysadmins do. Thanks for the response.

I read your article (the English translation). Very nice work. I did have a question, more about the translation, since I don't know any Russian (besides a couple of simple words). What is meant by: "many fryukhovovod and linukhov

I'm good with the horse's mouth, thanks. Musk is a grifter.

Nice update. Hopefully the work being done to update wifi support on FreeBSD will come to something and something like wifibox won't be necessary.

I would say a rushed review isn't fair, but I don't write OS reviews for a living. >That was me trying to justify the relevance of the project and its goals. Apparently not clearly enough. :-( That isn't the same as the pr

Well one, it doesn't really add much to the conversation about high speed rail in the US state of California. Also, you would need some type of citation before talking about death tolls. I would also argue that your numbers are wrong a

Thanks again for replying! You've been very fair and thoughtful with each response. I hope you try out netbsd 10 even if it's just for fun, and not for an article. Check out unitedbsd.com when you have time....NetBSD has a friendl

I thought it had been updated? Either way I agree with what you wrote. I think author also had some problems with FreeBSD's code of conduct; make of that what you will.

There is a wiki on the official site. There's also a guide (similar to freebsd's handbook). >But given limited manpower, then the question of where to spend it becomes even more important. Agreed, and the NetBSD team have appar

Thanks for taking the time to read my comment and respond! I hope you try out NetBSD and give it more time when 10 is released. It's not my main OS, but as I think I said in my last comment, it has a friendly and dedicated community. I

yeah the herbs make a big difference. A little spicy is nice, especially because the tomato sauce it's served with is usually not spicy at all.

I use sid/unstable, and like you I use aptitude, partially out of habit. I used to use stable exclusively. About a year ago I decided to try using sid permanently. I only ever had one issue (couldn't login to a gui), but that was

In El Salvador it's called curtido, and it's very simple to make. Traditionally it's not meant to be spicy. Usually served with pupusas. Some people add jalapenos or serranos when making curtido to add some heat to it; varies

I think for each tier II arch it can be installed but the extent to which they work varies.

I thought this was actually not that great of a write up, although it's from the perspective of someone who has never used it. I've used it off on and on for a few years now, but never as my main OS. The install process the author
