Any #Rust folks giving up on Linux:

#FreeBSD has no current plan for Rust, but we want one! We want experienced Rust people to tell us how it should work. We’re interested in being able to add Rust in both userspace and the kernel, but we need a way of using Rust that works with multi-year support cycles (we need to be able to easily merge security fixes in trunk back to a branch that was originally made four years ago).

Personally, I’d love to see a new service management framework for FreeBSD written in Rust + Lua.


I still haven't finished watching all the BSDCan presentations, but oh my gosh, someone gave a presentation on deejayin!

"DJ-BSD: DJing and music production on FreeBSD by Charlie Li"

I have applied for @nlnet grants and more (like, commercial companies such as Native Instruments, the company behind Traktor) to work on improving such things (e.g. @mixxx which is featured in the presentation) with funding, unsuccessfully, but at least someone was able to give a presentation on such things!

Rad!

Interesting 🤔 how #CVE are leveraged as resume items, putting #programmers #developers & project leads under pressure by #bogus CVE reports or unnecessary high CVE ratings.

Popular and obscure programs are affected in the #OpenSource #POSIX world e.g #Linux #freeBSD #netBSD #openBSD

#Curl ➰ by #Daniel #Stenberg and #IP by #Fedor #Indutny are popular programs hit by this #phenomena which can lead to unwarranted #panic in the users space

FreeBSD Foundation and Digital Security by Design (DSbD)

❝… CHERI and CheriBSD, developed to revolutionize hardware-based protection against memory safety vulnerabilities, were developed by a collaboration from researchers from the University of Cambridge, alongside corporate partners such as Google, Microsoft, Arm, and SRI International, and with support from the UK government. …❞

Good question.

The only person I know that is even remotely into that stuff may be @ncommander.

After all, #backporting #curl to legacy #FreeBSD sounds like the kind of #SoftwareGore and #DigitalMasochism he's likes to showcase on his #YouTube channel...


Anyone happen to know anything about #FreeBSD (legacy) header files and wants to help us out with a #curl build issue?

Would #dendrite not be better suited as a #matrix server on a NAS? I run dendrite on a pi4 with #FreeBSD, and it works pretty good. I found synapse quite heavy on a SBC,


RT @marzlberger@twitter.com

Hey @matrixdotorg@twitter.com , i made an entire german series of introducing the Matrix protocol and installing it onto a #FreeBSD / #TrueNAS jail for self hosting, supported by an OPNsense firewall, which is doing the HAProxy and cert stuff. Maybe you like it: bsdbox.de/matrix

I installed chrome, viber and slack on linux #jail on #FreeBSD using github.com/mrclksr/linux-brows….

It's almost morning, I'll write a blog post about it in the morning.


hey #freebsd peoples

we just learned that bsd.network is listed on wiki.freebsd.org/Community and docs.freebsd.org/en/books/hand… and we don't find that appropriate.

this is a closed community, not a resource for freebsd (or netbsd, or openbsd for that matter). our users happen to be just regular people, who may or may not have an affiliation with a *BSD project.

if we're on other pages in your documentation we'd appreciate being removed from them, too, let's keep this unofficial
