No matter how often I install the installer is dead simple and works well. Gotta say thank you to the dev's here. :openbsd:
Besides the fact that the code is really clean 🙂

    Just curious... Can a chatmail relay run on the BSDs? I'm guessing it can't coexist with a mail server already on a system due to the ports being used but it could be installed, say in a jail or perhaps on another system?

            Thanks to @nlnet for making this effort possible. Doing open source work such as this would be pretty much impossible for me without funding.

              Does anyone manage to use the media controls in ? I have a DasKeyboard with a volume jog that works out of the box on .

              The events seems to be working using xev tester. It regognizes the RaiseVolume and LowerVolume events.

              Not sure where to actually start looking for a solution.

                  With my release of v0.3 for , I'm looking for testers and feedback. I've developed it to scratch my own itch and am using it to simplify a number of my personal scripts, as now documented in the README:

                  github.com/morgant/recordctl?t

                  I spent a lot of time thinking about and _documenting_ the functionality for this release, especially the recordctl(8) manual page. While that was primarily for further practice editing manual pages, I'm curious if there's interest in a port/package.

                        The 7.8 release for Macs with the ACPI timeout related "slow boot" issue is on its way to the interwebz. As soon as my painfully slow broadband ¹ finishes and then @h3artbl33d has a spare moment to copy it over to the release dir, it will be up on mirror.openbsdonapple.wiki/pub

                        This adds the latest patch for libunwind from the OpenBSD 7.8 errata.

                              And oh boy all terms seem so foreign to me as a long time user. The same disk is called ada0 with a partition like ada0p2 in , will be called something like sd0 with wlsd0h in , ld0 and dk2 in . Then to experiment, all the , and commands are like blue and red wires on a dynamite you have to get rid of 😱. Linux distros nowadays seem to be going to the way which feels very much like in FreeBSD.

I found that in FreeBSD is intuitive and easy to use for disk partition manipulation, followed by gpt in NetBSD. For me, powerful and flexible as fdisk is, it has always been mysteriously difficult and fighting.

                                    So I used my first #IPv6 NAT on #OpenBSD and it worked as intended. This is a local ULA so is never meant to be routed but the control plane does need some access for #NTP, syslog, snmp etc

                                                We may have been a bit silent - but for good reason, since we are working behind the scenes to improve our infrastructure :flan_hacker:

                                                For instance, we now operate our own nameservers (rather than using those of friendlies). And we've kicked a mailserver online dedicated to Exquisite:

                                                $ dig +short exquisite.social ns
                                                ns1.exqinfra.nl.
                                                ns2.exqinfra.nl.
                                                ns3.exqinfra.nl.
                                                dig +short exquisite.social mx
                                                10 mx1.exqinfra.nl.

                                                Naturally, it does run :openbsd: The nameservers are configured with nsd and the mailserver uses Stalwart.

                                                More goodies to follow in the upcoming weeks :flan_hurrah:
