Any suggestions for a decent 2.5Gb switch in the EU.Managed would be nice, but it's not a must#switch #Networking #network

FreeBSD's top(1) utility displays CPU statistics by default.To display I/O activity for each process instead, run top like this:top -m io -- Benedict Reuschling <bcr@FreeBSD.org>

Last week, we were treated to an extraordinary talk internally at @oxidecomputer. It was at once an expository talk of a complicated software system and an experience talk of developing systems software in the large -- and it was far too good to keep to ourselves!https://oxide.computer/blog/systems-software-in-the-large

I'm performing some interesting tests inside SmartOS zones. It'll be a blog post - but it'll be out after EuroBSDCon#illumos

Hey #Proxmox community! I would like to hear your thoughts on how you usually update your Proxmox nodes and clusters. How do you handle minor Proxmox and #Debian package upgrades with #APT?What would you think about a new API endpoint that lets you run unattended upgrades with a simple call like:/nodes/{node_name}/apt/upgradeAt the moment you need to use the node’s HTML5 console to perform upgrades. Other methods exist such as running unattended Debian upgrade scripts, using patch management tools like #Spacewalk or #QualvoSec, or automating the process with #Ansible over SSH. My idea is to have an API based solution that relies on Proxmox authentication and authorization. This would also allow third party tools such as #ProxLB to provide automated patch management and even handle guest rebalancing in a way that is similar to DRS without requiring direct SSH access.I have already been running this approach on several internal clusters since the release of PVE 8 without issues. Now I am interested to hear if you would use unattended upgrades in general or if you are already running them today.#Linux #OpenSource #PatchManagement #Security #DevOps #Automation #Ansible #PVE #PVE8 #PVE9

@stefano @lfa I have similar stories to tell from working at Microsoft, Google and other large faceless organizations. This is one reason that I liked working at small startups in Silicon Valley - they were burning money, exploiting engineers and peddling snake oil, but at least you got to have a personal connection between boss and workers because the org is nearly flat. Going in to these situations with "eyes wide open" helps prevent feeling mistreated.

I just bought Tim Berners-Lee's "This is for Everyone" and the self service checkout at the store required an age check from a supervisor because the book was flagged as "adult content". I know that the Internet was made for porn, but I'm still confused.

We've just released v1.16 of the Matrix specification! Extensible profiles, room version 12, and more are now part of the specification.Read all about it (and what's next up in spec-land) on the blog: https://matrix.org/blog/2025/09/17/matrix-v1.16-release/

Want to use sed(1) to edit a file in place? Well, to replace every 'e' withan 'o', in a file named 'foo', you can do: sed -i.bak s/e/o/g fooAnd you'll get a backup of the original in a file named 'foo.bak', but if youwant no backup: sed -i '' s/e/o/g foo

@def @stefano just bit the bullet and switched from debian to #freebsd on my laptop, it is not perfect bit it works.at least, it brings back the fun into computing, the BSD's are now the equivalent of what brought me to linux in the first place (15 years ago).
