Alright, one more reason to love #FreeBSD:
I just upgraded one of my nuidns servers without issue. For those who don't know, nuidns is my rocinante+bastille based jail system for anycasted authoritative and recursive DNS. It has two commands, create and destroy. All I had to do was bootstrap 15.0-RELEASE with @BastilleBSD - and update the rocinante scripts to use the newer release, then run a destroy, followed by a create. Done, no errors, no warnings.
My hard work on this system over the years is certainly part of why it works so well. But FreeBSD's dedication to the principle of least surprise is what makes it possible. If I had done this with Linux+Docker, I would likely have to retool it with every major distro release and often for the minor ones.
I love FreeBSD because it just works, and it does so consistently.

@frank I share your disdain for Jira (I suspect just because it can be abused by process Nazis to be hell on earth to use...it could maybe be usable by normal people who have jobs to do, but I haven't seen it used that way). But, I think maybe Monday is even worse. It's ridiculously heavy and full of distractions. It's purpose built for process Nazis, and has no room for people who want to get work done. It's designed to maximize busy work.

Miami elected a Democratic mayor. Miami is a weird as hell political place, so I don't want to read too much into it. But, there have been 28 years of Republican mayors, and the Republican candidate got the off-year election he wanted and sued to get, and still lost. https://www.politico.com/news/2025/12/09/miami-elects-first-woman-mayor-ends-gops-28-year-control-of-city-hall-00683878

It is as gross to own a pretend human slave as it is to fuck a pretend sheep. Don't let your friends and family buy a Neo.
