@mwl TIL: I don't have to use freebsd-update; I can do it by just syncing the source and rebuilding.

Once I was a user. And the computer group did some upgrade. I bitched a lot, because they were just working on their resumes, the old system was fine, etc.
Then I joined that group. And we did an upgrade. And suddenly, all my bitches seemed trivial in light of the actual work and benefits of the change.
