@stefano interesting read, question: why Debian 12 and not 13?

@stefano interesting read, question: why Debian 12 and not 13?
@madduci Debian 12 is the last officially supported release inside a LX zone. But I've used Debian 13.2 when installing on bare metal.

@stefano sadly the cryptographic functions from the illumos kernel might be a bit underperforming.
See https://www.illumos.org/issues/4896.
Unsure if they do impact TLS, but they do impact zfs native encryption performance for sure.
One of those things that are totally okay for self hosting in many cases, but that might be quite a pain for a production environment

@stefano The performance of FreeBSD is quite interesting here.
Might this be due to all the optimization work for throughput and resource utilization that happened in the recent years? (at least partly driven by $large_streaming_provider as far as i'm aware)

@kinderstampfer It probably is. But it's always been extremely efficient, even 20 years ago. I think it's just the result of good engineering that, time after time, continues to be a good base for all the new technologies/improvements

@stefano Very true that good engineering pays off :-)
And now that you say it, i kinda remember FreeBSD being the thing that was recommended back then if you wanted all the performance possible.

@stefano great writeup as always. those n150 machines are a great alternative to pi/arm. have two in the lab running freebsd for dns and other adventures. such a capable little machine.

@kinderstampfer exactly. Back in 2002, FreeBSD was the OS that was giving the best {networking,cpu,ram} performance. Sure, Linux has improved - and I'm glad it did! - but the solid foundations of FreeBSD are still tangible today

@jae Thanks. I'm using one of them as workstation at office. It's perfect: no noise, low power consumption, good performance

@stefano good usecase for general purpose. for what i do i need more ram for my works. i did setup mastodon+caddy in jails on one and it didn't really tax it at all.
you may see it in your client work, but i all too often see clients pouring cash on the fastest/latest to future proof. most of the time their existing systems barely hit 30% capacity. they want headroom so i show them optics over time and shift their money to more meaningful initiatives. ive found it helps with credibility and to maintain the relationship. people remember good solutions and cost stewardship

@fucinafibonacci Si, antifascista per la precisione e si, mi sono trasferito vicino a Monza da qualche anno ma sono di origini comasche.
Magari potrebbe esserci anche l'occasione per incontrarci dal vivo. Chi lo sa. Credo che, questione Ucraina a parte, abbiamo invece lo stesso punto di vista su molte altre cose 🙂

Ciao Giulio, questo screenshoot l'ho preso da Windy, uno dei modelli (aladin 2.3 Km) prevede su Bologna 9 cm di pioggia in poche ore... dobbiamo crederci?

Hanno massacrato (in gruppo come tutti i vigliacchi) un ragazzo di 22 anni.
Lo hanno quasi ucciso, reso permanentemente invalido per 50 euro. O forse, e soprattutto, più per inumana cattiveria. Senza rimorso, senza pietà alcuna o senso di colpa.
Io a questi bastardi auguro galera a vita, di vedere il sole a scacchi fino alla morte.
No, non credo alla redenzione o alla rieducazione.
C'è del marcio che non ha giustificazioni e che non si può curare, solo mettere in condizioni di non nuocere più.

' your secure personal data phone solution by drug traffickers and other criminals'
.. And intelligence agencies, smart journalists, human rights activists.. People caring about privacy..
All that just means it works.
Really fine.

Pioggia, freddo e neve. Sull’Europa nord occidentale si distinguono le masse d’aria artica che raggiungeranno il Mediterraneo venerdì. Si tratterà di un episodio freddo piuttosto significativo per la stagione i cui effetti si cominceranno a sentire già domani. 1/6

Picù visitata, veterinario bravo, clinica attrezzata.
Può essere che avesse solo un po' di mal di gola.
Nel dubbio facciamo un controllo completo, compresa ecografia, nei prossimi giorni.

@Timmybauer74 Sì, anche se per i temi inerenti a guerra e politica mettiamo il content warning, non tanto perché sono cose brutte (non lo sono), ma perché a volte abbiamo bisogno un po' di tregua e con questo sistema possiamo avere entrambe le cose.
