given my origin story building firewalls and complex networks with Linux the sheer amount of immediately useful shit in the OpenBSD base install is absolute catnip to me. Things that I've historically spent days beating with a hammer just work right out of the box, the man pages are fucking amazing etc.

For the times I used Linux to replace Windows Servers (Windows 2003-2012 SBS rubbish) with Samba/dhcpd/sendmail/dovecot I wouldve given my left nut for FreeBSD+OpenZFS. It out of the box just immediately solves so many gotchas and hairy shit you have to roll your own solution around and that always felt a little underdone.

I'm hoping one day to get the opportunity to dig further into FreeBSD (pfil, netgraph/vpp) to see if i can build some truly beastly routers.

Oh and Sylve kicks all kinds of ass and is making a better and better case for finally putting a bullet in VSphere/ESXi.

Things are looking good and my hats off to all the people doing absolutely brilliant work.

This is fun

damnit. Made the mistake of walking up to the window and having a stretch. I think one of the local young suplhur crested punks noticed me.

I have now closed all the blinds and curtains in the hope they didnt
