@vermaden@Ericbsd Iโm using FreeBSD for years now, but wasnโt able to find a serious desktop replacement. Maybe Iโll give it another try (since PCBSD).
#GSoC acceptance emails will be sent this Thursday. I am excited to learn which students I'll be mentoring as part of the @FreeBSD project this summer!
Most people talk about @openclaw as an automation toy or agent runtime. I think a much more serious use case is child protection. Not as replacement for parents or an magic AI filter, just as one more safety layer https://t.co/2YsEmRNYBE Thanks @steipete#OpenClaw#ChildSafety
Does anybody have an overview over the SKU numbers for #IBM POWER9 CPUs? Want to buy a bigger one for my @RaptorEng Blackbird, but most sellers only give you the SKU number without details.
FreeBSD uses 206 MB of RAM on desktop.
Its 15.0-RELEASE with #PKGBASE and @XLibreDev X11 server and @Openbox/@Tint2/@Dzen2 desktop.
The htop(1) shows 230 MB but I subtracted:
- 19 MB for xterm(1)
- 5 MB for htop(1)
230 - 19 - 5 = 206
They were only used to measure RAM usage.
Il n'y a pas que le monde Linux qui est une alternative ร Microsoft ou Apple. Il y a FreeBSD dans le tweet citรฉ.

EuroBSDCon & bhyvecon 2025 are over and you probably missed several awesome talks if you didnโt join! This is the most important con in EMEA for all topics around #FreeBSD, #OpenBSD, #NetBSD, etc.
My highlight? #Sylve virtualization by @hyzam_js & @freebsdfndation on #bhyve
Do you run #FreeBSD 15? The #syslog_ng project needs your help! We could not reproduce in-house, but there might be a bug in syslog-ng 4.9.0 related to #inotify on @FreeBSD 15. Could you test it in your environment?

I started running short on disk space for the non-production @FreshPorts hosts. This time, I've decided to ask for donations.

At FreeBSD Hackathon Berlin we discussed chatbots that actually know FreeBSD. I put together a small RAG demo that uses the latest FreeBSD docs including things latest stuff like pkgbase. https://t.co/dLolGx0JvJ based on @ollama@OpenWebUI#FreeBSD
@vermaden@ollama@OpenWebUI I'm working on a tutorial for FreeBSD as well. Most modules be right away with uv/pip, for FreeBSD it needs a little more work. I'm on it :-)
