Today's last setting (almost no change) and shutting down...

At Open Source Conference 2026 Nagoya, held on May 23, I will be demonstrating a working OMRON LUNA-88K2 workstation and OpenBSD/luna88k running on it!

I have finished up and merged the sha256 network support work which was started by @op some time ago.

Which means the next release of #GameOfTrees will support cloning, fetching, and sending changes from/to SHA256-capable #Git servers (such as @forgejo).

Server-side support will need more work still so this won't immediately allow @gothub to host SHA256 repositories. But we also want to get that working eventually.

Happy hacking 

I've done a lot of OS upgrades in my life... and I have to say, OpenBSD does it better than any I've ever seen...

Literally just `doas sysupgrade` and bam, you have an updated system 5 mins later. The post-upgrade steps are unsurprisingly straightforward for most systems (https://www.openbsd.org/faq/upgrade79.html).

#OpenBSD

Have you ever heard of computer which speeds were measured in kilometers (or miles) per hour?

If you read this week's #OpenBSD story, you will.

I published a patch today which adds support for Intel E610 #Ethernet devices to the #OpenBSD ix driver:

Tests would be very welcome on any ix(4) device.
