    Added support for GameCube controllers on #NetBSD Wii. A new driver exposes the four GameCube controller sockets as HID devices that work with SDL / SDL2 as joystick devices.

    @stefano This is indeed a great post. Refreshing to read - the author didn't distro-bash but instead highlighted how needs were met.I have been leaning toward #FreeBSD after 20 years on #Debian, which has a special place in my heart. However, FreeBSD's *consistency*, elegant design, and better documentation are driving factors and I just can't look away. Over these two decades, Linux has definitely changed. It's no longer what it once was: a #Unix clone. It's evolved into its own thing. Software does that and that's OK. But a lot of the changes or "improvements" have been needlessly reinventing the wheel with a worsening user experience and convoluted results. The audio subsystems (ALSA -> PulseAudio -> Pipewire and of course the mess that is/was JACK) and #SystemD are two big examples.On SystemD, I don't disagree that Linux needed a modern init system. SystemD is faster, but from a human perspective it's worse. I am now typing *more* characters to manage services. Is there a reason why it couldn't be designed to manage services like:> $SERVICE start/stop/restartInstead, we are left with:> systemctl $SERVICE start/stop/restartBut I digress.#TBT I fell in love with FreeBSD when I first started my Linux journey in the mid-2000s, but only dabbled in it as it was never in any production environment I managed.I have a FreeBSD VM sitting in my lab somewhere but due to other factors rarely do I get to it. I'm thinking it's time I grab a spare laptop, load it up, and use it as a daily driver to really force myself to learn it.

    Dear fellow *BSD aficionado,First and foremost: our sincere gratitude for your interest and intention to attend our conference. We love having such an amazing community and were looking forward to meeting you once again at the Late 25 edition of BSD-NL.Unfortunately, we have to postpone this edition. We did not get enough ticket orders in to make it viable. Reflecting back, this was mainly our fault. We announced this edition way too late. Plus, there are other events at the same day, which is less than ideal. We will take these lessons to heart (and practice).We will, most definitely, organise a new event somewhere in spring - the Early 26 edition. And we would like to see you there!Sincere apologies. We will do better.#BSDNL #RUNBSD #BSD #OpenBSD #FreeBSD #NetBSD #HardenedBSD #SecBSD #DragonflyBSD
