What Brings People to FreeBSD?Recent comments on our community post showed just how diverse the paths into FreeBSD can be. Some users have been running FreeBSD since the 1990s for its stability and predictable behavior. Others found it through TrueNAS, books, mentors, user groups, or simply curiosity. Thank you to everyone who shared their experience. These stories help newcomers see the many ways FreeBSD supports real-world work.#FreeBSD #OpenSource #Community #FreeBSDFoundation

RFC: what are the highlights of FreeBSD 15.0-RELEASE? ＂In the 15.0-RELEASE announcement email, I list a few highlights. Obviously pkgbase is going to be one of them, but I'm looking for a list of 5 or 6 items, and I don't know what you as users care about the most.＂So… can you help out your release engineer and tell me what you personally thing is the most exciting change in 15.0?＂― Colin Percival at <https://www.reddit.com/r/freebsd/comments/1pa8ait/what_are_the_highlights_of_150release/>(The announcement is scheduled for Tuesday 2nd December – <https://www.freebsd.org/releases/15.0R/>.)#FreeBSD #RELEASE #RFC #announcement

Sometimes old projects are back. Made some updates for my utility, which is used to control brightness of a display, connected to the #Thinkpad X220/X230 via the AGAN X230 board (from AliExpress):- Since I'm using Awesome WM and don't want to write a logic to change brightness on the Lua, I added the --increase-brightness / --decrease-brightness options to change it by one step.- Add option --percent to display current brightness level not as internal value from board, but as percentage.- Update man page, add ChangeLog.For now it is tested under #FreeBSD 14.1-14.3.https://codeberg.org/evgandr/brightness_x220_agan2k#C
