@CuratedHackerNews Why use FreeBSD for a server when #Linux is so much superior because.................hold on,........................Linux really is better, because..................give me a minute, I'm trying to find a reason why Linux is better than #FreeBSD .................................maybe there really is no reason to ever choose Linux over #BSD
Another reason to hate Systemd: I’ve been fucking around for the last 30 minutes trying to switch off password login in sshd and doubting myself big time.
I’ve changed the sshd_config file but I can still login with a password. I’ve rebooted. Same problem.
Turns out that I have to ALSO edit or delete 50-cloud-init.conf in sshd_config.d directory.
What a load of fucking shite.

Decided to display the VAX-11/750 at the @revspace open day yesterday. All the hard work repairing it seems to have paid off, managed to get 18 hours of uptime out of it before shutting it down at the end of the day! #unix #retrocomputing #dec #vax11 #minicomputer #unixhistory #bsd
»Apple, verloren – Der große Siri-Schwindel oder Apples irritierendes KI-Versagen:
Apples Einstieg in den Bereich der Künstlichen Intelligenz war überhastet. Falsche Versprechungen nähren aber grundlegende Zweifel am Zustand der Firma und erinnern an alte Vaporware-Zeiten«
Apple ist und war noch nie was wirklich besonderes mMn. Ja klar deren Oberflächen ist rel. simpel zu nutzen und techn. basieren es auf *BSD.

Tip voor ITers en aanverwante liefhebbers:
Ga accounts volgen die over BSD schrijven en al snel voel je in je onderbuik dat BSD zelfs aan Linux voorbij gaat.
(ja ja, het kan altijd nóg verder van winknor vandaan)
BSD (Unix) bestond eerder dan Linux, was ooit de basis voor Apple's iOS en is nog steeds alive and kicking.
Hello. I have a #FreeBSD problem regarding pairing my #Bluetooth headphones. I've posted the question here:
Will be happy if someone has hint. If you don't, consider boosting this.
The REAL take-away from this all?
The *BSD community is utterly amazing and without all these people mentioned and without all these services I wouldn't get very far. Best. Crowd. Ever.
Why Choose to Use the BSDs in 2025

｢ Yes, Linux, Docker, and Kubernetes are better than closed source solutions. But when everyone uses the same tools, freedom dies. We use them because "everyone does" rather than because they're the best tool for our specific needs ｣

All of these are hard sells to data scientist types who have zero patience for managing their builds or operating system. I think option 4 is the most likely. Any #BSD sysadmins out there experienced this? What did you do? Did I miss something in my list? Is #nix commonly used on BSD and is it stable enough to manage complex Python dependencies? (4/4)
Long-winded question for #BSD sysadmins out there. (1/4)
