@kobilacroix Yeah, I've to kinda agree...

It's really bad and I hate the elitism.

Which is why I do prefer offering the easy-to-use yet good solutions, like ...

After all, I think it's dellusional to expect the average to learn how to use or even embedded when that's unnecessary for them...

@blackdotraven I have engineered my own solution over the years:

- a package management wrapper that allows me to use apt, pkg, pacman, dnf, etc., all with the same syntax: “pkg u” update everything
- a batch upgrade script that connects to all servers I have and makes use of the pkg wrapper
- a bootstrap script that sets this all up automatically

Works on , , and

@Annalee

Exactly!
Because whilst is propably the safest Operating System that one can hook up to the Internet out-of-the-box, noone's gonna yeet all their boxes out and force themselves to migrate everything to it.

Just because I know people who earned their living doing on doesn't mean it's something I'd recommend to anyone even if on paper that's the "most secure option"...

OpenBSD gets support for AMD processor microcode updates

Thanks to a series of commits by Jonathan Gray (jsg@), -current now has support for microcode (updates) for AMD (amd64 and i386) processors.[...]It's great to see support for the AMD side gaining equivalence with that for Intel (for which support was added in 2018).

Good news for OpenBSD users.

Got running in a VM on Apple Silicon. My first time running it although I’ve used on and off for years. Figuring out the differences in package managers, etc now.

Wayland on OpenBSD

These are my notes from experimenting with building Wayland bits on OpenBSD during g2k23 in Tallinn… Thanks to the OpenBSD foundation for organizing this event.This is still far from a complete running system as there are many issues on the road, but it’s a good start and it shows that it’s definitely not impossible to get Wayland running on OpenBSD.

This is one of the very few valid criticisms
