                                  Now that it's official, I can announce it - although I may have dropped a few hints earlier! ๐Ÿ˜‰

                                  My talk "Why (and how) weโ€™re migrating many of our servers from Linux to the BSDs" has been accepted, and Iโ€™ll be honored to present it in June at BSDCan in Ottawa.

                                  The joy of meeting BSD friends in person again (and those I havenโ€™t had the chance to meet live yet) will be immense, and the honor of sharing my story in Canada is truly beyond measure, especially considering the level of other talks and all the people attending.

                                  Of course, Iโ€™ll be bringing various BSD Cafe gadgets with me!

                                        I'm guessing you're taking about #FreeBSD.

                                        Both #NetBSD and #OpenBSD give you a working #X11 immediately after install.

                                        #NomadBSD even gives you #xfce

                                            Well my new Intel N100 16Gb ram, 250Gb NVME is now online running . I didn't need to do any of the changes that Ben Tasker mentioned it just gave a full on 1GB PPPoE connection. Fingers crossed I have most things set up correctly ? I did notice a bug after updating though. Before I updated the system health graphs showed the correct date and times now it is showing me the 14th and 10PM UK time yet the systems is reporting the correct date and time plus time zone as I'm using NTP. Oh well no doubt it'll get fixed shortly.

                                                    I've just launched the version of my blog with a BSD-based theme. The main colors are inspired by the BSDs, and badges will appear if a post includes one (or more) BSD in its categories. I've applied a few fixes (there are more to come), but it's already fully usable.
                                                    The site is designed to be navigable even without images or JavaScript, and can be used with text-based browsers. The only feature that requires JavaScript is the search function, which runs locally in the user's browser for maximum security and privacy.

                                                    For those who have already visited the site in recent days, you might not see the new theme correctly as some CSS parts could still be cached in your browser. Iโ€™ve set long expiration times for the CSS, so browsers may not notice the changes right away.

                                                        Got a little ThinkCentre for $150. 7th gen Intel.

                                                        Currently running Solus Linux, but I still want to try daily driving #FreeBSD sometime.

                                                          Bought a used #ThinkCentre on fleabay today.

                                                          Thinking of trying out #FreeBSD on it as a daily driver. ;)

                                                          On second thought, I don't think I can run #KerbalSpaceProgram on it. I'm wondering how good the Linux "emulation" is. Hrmmm, maybe #OpenSuSE instead (sorry #BSD brethren!) :BlobCatBlush:
