@nicemicro it's corporations who want to avoid gpl code because that imposes obligations. Developers not in #OpenBSD who care about survival of #FreeSoftware should use licences that enforce code survival and growth. There's a reason bsds are now a blip of a percent of total os now and linux is in and on everything. You have to force sharing and giving back when dealing with the sociopathic corporate sector. Anything else is naive. Except for special cases like openssh, libressl etc.
My PowerBook G4 is from 2005. But still have an up-to-date OS. I updated #openBSD to 7.1, latest version of my config files as well (same as on my other *BSD and Linux systems). It doesn't have a modern web browser, but emacs and a script to listen to #SomaFM is all I need š
@musicman Thatās awfully specific. There might be podcasts focused on webservers ( #Apache #httpd, #Lighttpd, #Nginx, #Cherokee, #OpenBSD httpd, etc ) and plugins / extensions ... maybe with some coverage of Web APIs and such. Or there might be some that cover everything the Apache org produces.
Iām not confident that you will find any #podcasts that cover only the intersection.
Just wow. They could have just become a Lennart-ware free Linux distro. It seems like a lot of work to start over with their own fork of #BSD. They'd better have a lot of developer resources, or they'll go the way of #Hurd.
I have a small web application that I want to develop (my own simple basic image gallery), I've decided to try and develop it on #OpenBSD , with this stack : https://learnbchs.org/index.html , I want to learn more about it, and my project is a great way to start, since it's a simple one.
Cool stuff, #godotengine on #openbsd , very cool that it works there. and one of very few game engines \ editors (if not the only one) that has info about how to compile it on openbsd in their documentation. Is also in openbsd as binary package ready to install.
I'm trying something new. An experiment, if you will.
Would you like to become an #OpenBSD port MAINTAINER but don't know where to start? I have five ports ready to go. They are at the bottom of the link below. All you have to is add yourself as MAINTAINER, roll the directory into a tarball, and submit it to the ports@ mailing list.
Writing new ports can be tricky. Maintaining fully formed ports can be a nice way to learn how everything works and ease into things.
Yep. Lobste.rs is full of geeks. My blog post on configuring email on #OpenBSD for #plan9#acme is topping https://lobste.rs, above Mozilla, Google and Uber controversies. \o/
