I think it's time for some #OpenBSD #79HYPE ​ 

After ~21 years, gcc 3.x has left the building, with the last remaining platform (OpenBSD/luna88k) ported to gcc4.

Jonathan Gray (jsg@) has updated the drm graphics drivers (inteldrm/radeondrm/amdgpu) in #OpenBSD 7.9 to Linux 6.18.y/6.18.22 from the 6.12.y longterm support version.

OpenBSD now supports "Delayed hibernation" on amd64: After waiting a number of seconds (up to 24 hrs) the machine will wake from S0ix/S3 idle sleep/suspend and hibernate to disk.

#OpenBSD/luna88k has been switched to gcc4! :flan_thumbs:​ And with that the last GCC3_ARCH is gone! Not with a bang but a whimper.. :flan_smile:​ https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-cvs&m=176124507027163&w=2 https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-cvs&m=176124650328448&w=2

🍪 Wholemeal cookies 🍪

- Whole wheat flour
- Wholemeal sorghum flour
- Wholemeal teff flour
- Mixed sunflower, pumpkin and flax seeds
- Chestnut honey

I love teff and sorghum.
I use them a lot in pastries, because they enrich flavour without adding spices like cinnamon or something.
Their natural flavor are so exotic that they make shortcrust pastry and biscuits taste way better.

🥖 Rye and oat focaccia 🥖

🌾 100% wholemeal flours
🪨 100% stone-ground flours
🇮🇹 100% Italian grains
🩺 100% mix of low and gluten-free flours

A rustic focaccia made with:

- Wholemeal rye flour
- Wholemeal oat flour

100% hydration
10% extra virgin olive oil

Amazing scent and flavor, derived in particular from rye, which gave this focaccia earthy and honeyed notes, while oats smoothed the edges with its sweetness, rounding off the flavor.

A dough that is technically difficult to manage due to its high hydration with very low gluten flours (rye) and gluten-free flours (oats).

Very delicate even in the double phase of leavening, with perfectly marked times to prevent it from becoming sour.

Gentle and prolonged cooking to dry the internal humidity.

One of the most things I love of OpenBSD is the pragmatic decisions the developers make.

macOS blocked Kernel Extensions for security reasons.
You cannot load any kext at runtime unless you boot in Recovery mode and disable this restriction.

But still I think the OpenBSD approach to delete the entire LKM support was a smarter move than running a LKM-aware kernel and then blocking the loading of kexts at runtime.

I will build a great cloud, and nobody builds clouds better than me, believe me. And I will built it very inexpensively. I will build a great great cloud with multiple regions, and I will have customers pay for that cloud! Mark my words!

I grew so tired of the complexity of IT, that turning on my Lenovo laptop, which is running OpenBSD, is a breath of fresh air.

I'm looking forward to get my Dell PowerEdge T610 tower server delivered.

Now, I just need to buy 12x16GB ECC RAM banks and 4TBx8 HDDs.

I wasn't joking. I'm taking a short break to work on myself: https://boehs.org/node/a-break

Excitement and Stress

While I think that the cloud providers are pushing a toxic behavior where there is no contribution to the products they’re selling as a “managed service”, I think Redis is using this situation as a excuse to change their license to a proprietary one.

If you are choosing to release your software with a permissive license, like the BSD, you are telling that is fine for you that your software can be used even in a third party proprietary solution.
Whining that someone ACTUALLY did that and made profits greater than yours is just hypocritical.
