Ik vraag me af, is er een samenwerking tussen @nllgg https://buurtlinux.nl/ en @repaircafe het https://www.repaircafe.org ?

Long time Mozilla user, though, to visit some lousy sites I occationally have to use Chromium (since stupid developers of those sites don't care about standards).

Now it's straightforward to get Chromium (not to mix with Google Chrome) from Fedora or Linux Mint repositories, I was incidentally introduced what great lengths of installing raw Chromium users needs to go

Finding the right current version, getting it from nasty directory lists, etc. While right there always sits a flashy button to download Chrome

To me it clearly looks like intentional anticompetition violation. Because yes, Chromium (open source) competes with Chrome (proprietary bloatware)

FreeBSD 14.2-RELEASE is officially recommended for new installations.

If you perform a new installation, I do recommend the switch to pkgbase – before exiting the installer for the operating system.

The switch is not difficult, now – and will become easier with future releases.

Your emphasis should be to minimise the traditional steps – in particular, do not rush to add a user. Things such as addition are, instead, easily performed after first boot of the installed system.

An ultra-condensed explanation:

a) install the OS
b) install the OS

– and the second installation negates the need for future use of freebsd-update.

Yes – pictured here – will give you the so-called chroot environment, in which you can complete the switch. There's a traditional command prompt.

Packaging of the OS became official more than a year ago; packages are maintained by the Primary Release Engineering Team; freebsd-update is an axe candidate for 15.0; and so on.

Juuh.

HALP!

I guess upgrading to a new notebook was worth it:

tux ~ # genlop -t qtwebengine
* dev-qt/qtwebengine

Mon Nov 18 00:53:07 2024 >>> dev-qt/qtwebengine-6.7.3
merge time: 1 hour, 11 minutes and 39 seconds.

For comparison, it took 26 hours on my old machine, as I had to build with MAKEOPTS=-j1 as otherwise it ran out of memory (8GB aren't enough).

Currently doing the final bits of the installation, before I copy over my data. Also trying to clean up the user profile in the process.

ran ftf on the kali ai lab box after inaging and doing timeshift incremental backups - the python venv is kind of confusing, it used to be basic and straightforward, now it is a bit more involved #ptf #install it all #standards committee
