I feel dirty :freebsd_logo: 🪟 :bhyve: 😂

I needed some Windows for a (German) tax related application, so just ran it in BHYVE. (Bit slow on the ThinkPad T480, but got the job done!)

    OK So I'm interested to find out what all those cool folk running at home as servers are using hardware wise. Don't worry there is nothing to be ashamed of here as I'm really excited and interested to hear from folk recycling equipment. What CPU, RAM do you have? Also do you have a separate boot and data disks ? How big are they and are they raid or not? How many services are you running on that hardware? :openbsd:

            Goodbye Linux & Podman, hello FreeBSD & Jails! :freebsd_logo:

            Just migrated my blog (blog.hofstede.it) to a fully native BSD stack (where my Gemini Capsule was already living).

            Stack (using Bastille VNET Jails)
            - Caddy (Ingress, TLS, Reverse-Proxy)
            - Nginx Jail (Internal. Static file serving)
            - PF

            The Cool Part: A Zero-Trust CI/CD pipeline.

            My Forgejo runner deploys via restricted rrsync into an air-gapped "transporter" jail, which nullfs mounts the web root.

            Security: Source-IP restricted, no interactive shells, no PTY.

            The simplicity of files-on-disk beats container abstraction every time.

                Think it is time to give the driver a try on 15.0 for my Intel 8260 wireless card. So far so good, might get some speed gain compared with driver but I need to run a few days to make a conclusion. Wiki page here is helpful: https://wiki.freebsd.org/WiFi/Iwlwifi

                  "Newbie" FreeBSD question... There's a couple of apps that I'm missing - not available using the "pkg install" command. I expect they may be already around somewhere in a dev repo or something (Gnome 48 apps).

                  - Apostrophe (markdown editor)
                  - Papers (PDF Viewer for Gnome 48)

                  Is there somewhere I should look for these apps? Not committed enough to try to compile gnome apps myself at this time. Ha.

                  I can adapt to different app (ofc!) but if there is a relatively painless way...

                  Sorry if I'm conflating 'Linux' logic with FreeBSD re: finding/adding external repos.

                      Yesterday it was a lot of fun. I installed NetBSD on the Raspberry Pi 2 you see below. This machine is going to be the server for the beta testing of the project. There is a small thread on this here:
                      hostux.social/@lfa/11507290883

                      I recompiled Goophy directly on the Pi and I also installed Lagrange on my desktop to test everything with a second client. Devuan has no package for Lagrange so I built it from sources.

                            I added two more nodes:

                            Both are based on OpenBSD.

                              "The contrast with Docker is striking: while the Docker container required 100% CPU to reach peak for the HTTP and HTTPS throughput, the FreeBSD jail delivered the same speed with ~60% of the CPU sitting idle. In terms of performance cost per request, Jails are drastically cheaper."

                                And invent my own uptime.

                                Like, seriously, I was expecting that the seconds counter would change, BUT THE ACTUAL BOOT TIME OF DAY IN kern.boottime CHANGED, TOO?!? WHAT THE WHAT!!!! XD XD XD
