I'm not beawesome but it's pathetic how you have to point him out because you know you have no argument against what he says which are flagrantly serious problems with BSD. These threads are circlejerks. BSDrones are so interesting to me because they're probably very intelligent but they are so viciously quick to censor information.

cuck license tho
Nathaniel Torres
FreeBSD good for a web and email server?
Jace Miller
He doesn't say anything worth replying to, it's not a Linux vs. BSD thread, nobody gives a shit.
Just go to your local BSD User Group rambling about systemd and see how interested people are.
Eh, enforcing the GPL costs money. Nothin personnel, kid.
Yeah, FreeBSD is good and all the packages are available in ports (not sure what's in FBSD base, but OBSD has OpenSMTPD and httpd).
If you have moving parts like PHP and SQL, you should check up on properly configuring jails. This has tripped me up on OBSD using chrooted servers before.
Carson Gonzalez
I still count myself as Linux newb. Using Mint 18 atm. Will I be okay if I try BSD? Does it run fine in VirtualBox?
Justin Bell
Yeah, start with a virtual machine. OBSD and FBSD both boot into a text console, which tends to freak people out.
I'm actually serving multiple protocols through OBSD VMs in VirtualBox, runs totally fine and really fast. You can use the virtual network adapter vio0.
Keep a browser window open with man.openbsd.org loaded while you play around, and develop the habit of checking man pages FIRST.
Samuel Ortiz
bump
Ethan Morris
Got it, thanks.
Gabriel Jenkins
dont feed the anti-bsd troll
Michael Hall
:)
Luke Morales
he got so desperate that there were no threads that he made an account on reddit to shitpost
Benjamin Ross
Has anyone started porting systemd to OpenBSD? I love the OS, but the init system is so archaic it's painful.
Caleb Morris
After work bump. Yeah this is the 2nd in 2 days, sorry. Usually they're monthly or less, other people make them too, I have no pasta because lazy.
Nice troll. Pasting my /etc/rc.conf.local file so you can see how easy it is:
# Set these variables to "NO" to turn the respective service off. # Set them to "" to run them with the default flags. # Otherwise, these variables override the default flags. apmd_flags=-A hotplugd_flags=NO vmd_flags=NO
# Multicast routing configuration # Please look at netstart(8) for a detailed description if you change these multicast=YES # Reject IPv4 multicast packets by default
# rc.d(8) packages scripts # started in the specified order and stopped in reverse order pkg_scripts=mpd
the unified config parser for in-house projects (vmd, doas, httpd, pf) is really nice too
Noah Sullivan
i literally don't understand how anyone could complain about openbsd's init system
the only complaint i used to have was that it was slow, but it got way better lately, i don't know what they did but it's blazing fast now
Jaxson Sullivan
He's pointed out because he shits up every BSD related thread he can find.
Robert Cook
That was actually a huge laptop turn-off for years for me, that it took a fucking half-minute to boot. Now it's still longer than Debian but way more tolerable.
Juan Wilson
so? maybe he's actually right. linux actually has contributors, I remember for years people saying "I'd switch if I could only get netflix" and then somebody made it work. bsd hasn't changed in over 15 years.
try actually coming up with responses to him instead of calling him out in advance like that makes any difference. but you can't and this is why bsd is only limited to shitty bbs and reddit echo chambers with 10 people max in them
Jose Russell
>bsd hasn't changed in over 15 years. guess i must have imagined freebsd getting ZFS support
James Powell
It isn't my fault I can't help myself. The shit some of you guys say to promote BSD is super strong bait.
Dominic Morgan
OpenBSD gets leaner every release and it changes faster than most operating systems. Run -current for one year and you'll see.
None of that stuff about Reddit users porting Netflix matters, everything happens on the tech@ mailing list, at hackathons, and the core developer's jobs.
Jacob Nelson
>OpenBSD gets leaner every release Isn't that just because its too hard to maintain current ports so they end up disabling shit?
Dominic Campbell
beawesome is always right.
James Long
you forgot your trip
Daniel Watson
We see sudo taking up 10,000 SLOC and say, "Let's do it in 100"
