Got my OpenBSD poster out of the box (it was in there for 19 months due to moving to a new place and it did not went well)

It's near the AC because with OpenBSD you stay cool :flan_laugh:

I can't miss it, it's in the middle of the big room!

Zelda related - hidden korok in garden 

I'm quite sure there is a korok there 👀

Game related - Death Stranding 

I found some chiral crystals in a store :flan_XD:

With Qubes OS, malwares do not come and go as they please using a multi-pass (5th element reference)

Me trying to print too many pages pages double sided while my printer does not support double sided printing.

It gets worse when you try to print a booklet with two pages per sheets sides 🤪

Air gapped data transfer

update: the measured transfer speed is 2712 bytes / second, I used a file whose size is 2297850 bytes to measure.

IT joke - Interstellar meme

Do you know if these UNOX sausages are POSIX compliant?

Your dear backup reminder

If your computer dies, do you have backups? If so, could you recover them without the computer?

It makes me laugh when people complain about "blue screen of death" in systemd

had it for years and it's fine.

I wanted to update fs-uae-launcher on OpenBSD because there is a new version available upstream, and we are late to the party but:

- I can't find this new release on fs-uae website
- there are no tag / release on github
- the changelog in sources does not mention this new version
- some packages repositories use that new version

So I downloaded our current version 3.1.68 and run a diff against 3.1.70, here is the result :flan_worried: :flan_facepalm:

@fyrfaras offered me their Alphasmart Neo2, now I can type anywhere without distraction. :flan_balloon:

Thank you very much :flan_beer:

This device is a keyboard and a small screen, it's made to type without a computer. It can be plugged into a computer and type all recorded texts, up to 8 files can be saved.

This device is not sold and produced anymore.

Update: maybe I'll finally be able to focus on my OpenBSD book now

Any idea what this is? I found it in my cable drawer, I don't know what it is and which hardware came bundled with it :flan_eyes_narrowed:

EDIT: I remember now, it came with my screen! The screen has USB ports, so I guess it's an usb 3 connection between the computer and the screen to enable its usb HUB

UPDATE: thanks everyone, it's indeed an USB-B 3.0 cable

I modified my godot game z-hack to turn it into a Vampire Survivors clone

you are puffy and you need to survive the Windows :flan_guy2:

it currently sucks but it's playable :flan_laugh: , I need to get back into Godot

I need to give more weapons to puffy and more enemies :flan_evil: :flan_guy:

Playing with Prefix on 12 :flan_hacker:

It's handy to have emerge at hand

Funny thing, install neofetch with emerge was faster than with aptitude :flan_think:

Good news everyone, KDE Plasma is now a thing on OpenBSD -current, kudos to rsadowski@ !

I've been able to compile it on -current using the ports tree without additional patches, I followed the pkg-readme instructions and voilà! It stills requires a bit more polishing though, but hey, it's there! :flan_stars:

Running compositor on is very easy (only -current at the moment)

- pkg_add sway
- stop xenodm
- log-in as your user in a tty
- run /usr/local/bin/startsway.sh

that's all :flan_thumbs:

Today I realized that fiber optics is slow, it adds ~ 1ms of delay (for a round trip) for each 100 km between the hosts

Light speed is too slow :flan_guy:
