@cynicalsecurity @4Dgifts : Ironically, the entire fragmentation section in RFC8200 (IPv6 un full standard status) has bugs, and thus was replaced by pages-long errata: https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata_search.php?rfc=8200

Mmh, "experimental-api" for the release version of Teams.

Right.

I'd like the thank, once again, both the #OpenBSD and #FreeBSD communities for making upgrades such an easy _and reliable_ experience.

OpenBSD 7.6->7.7 and FreeBSD 14.2->14.3 "just works".

And yes, as remarked by @diagprov, "welcome to the UK"¹.

¹ The UK specialises in railway engineering work every weekend and at the most inconvenient times. They also have random line interruptions due to terrifying conditions like "leaves on the tracks" and "wrong kind of snow", but those are on top of the engineering work.

For those of you coming to #Switzerland this Summer (or living in Switzerland and not used to following the updates from SBB CFF FFS) please be aware that there are major engineering works planned on Swiss railways.

In particular one big bobo is that the link between Bern and Fribourg is interrupted between the end of June and the end of August meaning that the IC1, backbone of everything between St. Gallen and Geneva, is not running through.

For those needing to travel to/from Geneva from/to the other side of the Sarine your only option is the painful Geneva-Renans (VD)-Zurich via Neuchâtel option. Pretty much everything from Geneva (and Lausanne) becomes "change in Olten" (Luzern, Lugano, Basel, Interlaken, etc.)

For those who, like me, live on the EC between Geneva and Milano there is the added bonus that the line is interrupted between Domodossola and Milano too 🥳

There are two options: Geneva-Renans (VD)-Olten-Lugano-Milano/Zurich-Milano or the fancy Domodossola-Locarno-Milano using the Centovalli. Note that your AG (GA for those outre-Sarine) is valid on the Centovalli, you only need to buy a seat reservation as it is permafull in Summer.

There are also several weekend interruptions between Saturday night and Monday morning in many locations (e.g. Morges).

Final note: don't even consider taking the EC replacement bus. It is the most painful trip ever and over the Great St. Bernard so if you suffer from travel sickness… not recommended.

#OpenBSD now supports configuring battery charge control limits on Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite laptops in -current, using the sysctl framework introduced in OpenBSD 7.4. 

kettenis@ modified src/sys/dev/fdt/qcpas.c: Implement charge limits on firmware that supports it; x1e80100 does, sc8280xp doesn't.

ok patrick@

I should have never gotten out of bed.

Telco says that they will not confirm installation of B-end of a link and that we should ask the DC for confirmation.

Bring UUCP back.

Today is very much a “why didn’t I become a sail designer in New Zealand when I was given the opportunity?” day.
For #bhyve would it be possible to have "fast snapshots" of VMs by using suspend/restore in the VM? Quick suspend -> snapshot, restore and go on with life. I could live with a few seconds outage to have a stable snapshot of the img file for backup.
