@mike A week or 2 ago, I received a few (between 3 & 5 IIRC) spam emails in German to 1 of my addresses. I didn't think much of it at the time & haven't seen any more (yet).

@justine as far as terminal emulators I use RXVT Unicode / urxvt

@justine I've used (& currently use) both #XFCE & #OpenBox on #OpenBSD under #Xorg for years (as long as I can remember). For more than 5 years, closer to 10.

Whether I use OpenBox or XFCE on a given day depends entirely on my mood. I've used OpenBox the longest of any WM, and I only recently started using XFCE over the past few years.

OpenBox is still my first choice though. For its simplicity  🙂

Still playing around with #OpenBSD on my Desktop PC and to be honest I thought I'd hate it but you know what ? It's actually kind of growing on me. Yes I know I can use #SwayWM with #Wayland but the #Xorg stuff is kind of nostalgically nice, A blast from the past. Also I'm not that worried if I break it as I can just reinstall and start again until I figure it out totally.
What are desktops / terminals and so on are you OpenBSD folk running on your setups ?

Greatest scientists of all times were invited to a reunion...

  • Newton said he'd drop in.
  • Socretes said he'd think about it.
  • Ohm resisted the idea.
  • Boyle said he was under too much pressure.
  • Darwin said he'd wait to see what evolved.
  • Pierre and Marie Curie radiated enthusiasm.
  • Volta was electrified at the prospect.
  • Pavlov positively drooled at the thought.
  • Ampere was worried he wasn't current.
  • Audobon said he'd have to wing it.
  • Edison thought it would be illuminating.
  • Einstein said it would be relatively easy to attend.
  • Archimedes was buoyant at the thought.
  • Morse said, "I'll be there on the dot. Can't stop now, must dash."
  • Gauss was asked to attend because of hismagnetism.
  • Hertz said he planned to attend with greater frequency in the future.
  • Watt thought it would be a good way to let off steam.
  • Wilbur Wright accepted, provided he and Orville could get a flight.
  • Dr Jekyll declined - he said he hadn't been feeling himself lately.

System call pinning is now mandatory in #OpenBSD -current, with execv(2) now rejecting binaries without a valid pintable. ​

deraadt@ modified src/sys/kern/exec_elf.c: If binaries lack a pintable, execve() can now reject them at startup by returning EINVAL, rather than at runtime when the first system call occurs (and then probably dumping core). Let's find out if there are any surprising exceptions we were unaware of (would need a custom linker, or a non-crt0 runtime)
errno discussions with kettenis, sthen, millert. Vague consensus it is
worth trying now.

Plus some additional cleanup in process flags, used in ps(1), to make available for future bits.

deraadt@ modified src/*: We do not need the PS_LIBCPIN and PS_PIN flag fields anymore, which were used during development (for visibility). There is speculation claudio will immediately use these bits for something else.
