There are literally TONS of various NAS cases for 3.5 drives - with amd64 or arm64 CPUs - some Mini-ITX or STX based ... what is lacking on the market are NAS cases for multiple 2.5 drives ONLY.

There are some. For example BSD ls(1) is not able to list dirs first. Other thing is that BSD utils are more strict ... like: # command -o -p -t -i -O -n -s ARGUMENTS If you do it other wise - like that: # command -o -p -t AR

Container support is ready since year 2000 on FreeBSD while Linux needed to catch up the game and with Docker finally made it in 2013. More here: - https://vermaden.wordpress.com/2023/06/28/freebsd-jails-cont.

I agree with every word Pavel put there - and what is most threatening ... we are about to lose it. Why? Normies. They were 'played' in C19 time - and they will be 'played' next time ... and EVERY next time. There are ju

Because containers are not virtual machines - You can run 1000 FreeBSD Jails on your laprop while you will not be able to run 1000 VMs - Jails are a lot lighter on resources then VMs.

Its strange because NVIDIA officially supports FreeBSD and provides official binary driver for FreeBSD ... but for some reason known only to NVIDIA - it does not contain/support CUDA on FreeBSD.

Me too. Especially in ASCIIDOC/HTML/TXT/PDF files - for PDF files also a copy of ODF/ODT for editing where possible. Then I can search for anything needed with grep(1) or pdfgrep(1) commands.

Yep. The 's0ix' is bullshit. S3 suspend/resume worked just fine. ... but in the end of the day what more can You do? I would say 'vote with your wallet' ... but that also does not work anymore. Take a look at laptop

Thanks. Its basically ThinkPad T480 with just ThinkPad T25 Palm Rest and Keyboard ... the problem is that Lenovo only made 5000 of these ThinkPad T25 ... and now all the ANSI US keyboards are GONE. I also have the original ThinkPad T25 ...

I have tried multiple Linux system and besides faster WiFi I never find what I look for on the Linux land - but thank You for suggestion. Also - even if I would be forced to use Linux - I would probably setup it with ZFSBootMenu and Root on
