@elena ciao! Come lo scarico? Posso chiederti il link?

May 2026 be the year I get into #FreeBSD.
My last #mysocalledsudolife action of 2025 is... downloading the FreeBSD handbook.
I was about to print it at my in-laws' but I'm not sure my father-in-law would appreciate the consumption of 935 sheets of paper. I also don't want to sacrifice a tree for it. So off it goes to my iPad 🤪
Wishing everyone a great day!
@elena May 2026 is a month, not a year.
😉
I'm sorry, Elena, I couldn't resist!
Have a good and healthy year 2026, and enjoy getting to know FreeBSD. Also, if you've an extra bit of time, OpenBSD might likewise be something you'd enjoy!

@jpmens haha thank you JP! Considering all the self-hosting I managed to achieve in a month (original goal: 4 years) maybe I can get a grasp of FreeBSD sooner than later... maybe by end of April 2026 😉

@elena sounds good, then you could travel to Brussels in September for EuroBSDcon https://2026.eurobsdcon.org and give a talk on your experience learning FreeBSD.
I could well imagine such a talk being accepted, but I'm not on the comittee.

@jpmens @elena We certainly welcome submissions from people who have not been to our conferences before, and there is no requirement to be the "internet greybeard" type.
So while I can no guarantee acceptance (and my vote would be only one of 7 or 8 IIRC), I would definitely encourage you to submit any time while the call for papers is open (https://2026.eurobsdcon.org/ has the details such as they are).

@mischa considering the application deadlines, that gives me 3 months to learn FreeBSD.
First thought: massive respect to actual programmers, I’m having some humble pie this morning and thinking that September 2027 is totally fine too as a goal.
And I could always study and read up and attend the 2026 edition to meet folks and hear presentations :)

Te first three months of experience are incredibly helpful too. Hearing about the challenges that you come across and how to best help newcomers navigate through those challenges.
The decision is all yours, just saying that you are very welcome to submit an abstract for EuroBSDCon 2026 in Brussels!

@h3artbl33d @mischa @pitrh @jpmens thank you! I will definitely keep this in mind :)

@gabriele non è l’”Europa” che te lo dice, non è l’estrema destra che difende il welfare, è l’estrema destra che smantella il welfare dando la colpa a un ente astratto chiamato “Europa”, che risponde a 27 capi di stato e di governo. Ora puoi contare quanti tra questi leader hanno una agenda socialdemocratica e quanto invece ne hanno una liberista, populista, nazionalista, militarista e classista.

I think I'm at a point where I'd rather be poor in Greece than poor in the Netherlands. 🥀

I'm looking at prices and the same RX9070 that I paid 115k for last February is now down to 95k or so.Which is pretty much the stated launch price when they first showed up.
Edit: BTW, do consider a non-XT model. The performance difference is much smaller than power consumption and price.

@Gina
The GPU prices are down a fair bit now, aren't they?
