I'm crazy curious about WTF is in Poland that anyone in the US would even recognize enough to be worth parodying.

All I can come up with is CDProjekt, but I've never heard of them being "Heavy-handed" like TFS mentions..

Thanks, Dwight.

I honestly can't say. I've only been messing with it in a testing/dicking around capacity, and haven't been swimming in free time for the past month or so. Hopefully someone lucky enough to be doing it full time will post and let us know.

Still, it's a damn sight better than "make buildworld" was (yes, it's been that long)

There's precious little evidence that systemd makes for "a better functioning OS" and plenty that the people behind systemd don't even understand how the OS functions -- and that's on a practical level, not a "OMG UNIX Philosophy is so 1980s" level.

I used to use FreeBSD back in the day and I gotta say, pkgng is looking like it's pretty slick at solving the #1 reason I moved away from it (too much of a PITA to keep many heterogeneous servers up-to-date)

Unless, of course, you have a database backend for anything on your web server. If the apache daemon can access it, so can the asshat who exploited it for a shell.

Follow the link? What are you, new?

"MIR" is just a simple caesar cyphering away from "NIH'.

With some of the contracts these fuckers try to push, that's not exactly an over-the-top concern.

Nicely played. :D

It gets hashed down to 28-64 characters and written into the database?

I'd say it's more of "bypassing the absolute worst of each worlds." The closer I can get to "apt-get upgrade", the better. But it looks like pkgng might have that mostly covered for most of what I'd need to set up.

When crunch-time passes, I'll experiment a little more deeply into it, but I'm glad to see there's been so much improvement. I loved me some FreeBSD back in the day.

I've been playing with pkgng/pkg a bit, it does look much nicer. That's a good change, imo. Ports are nice, and I know that back in the day they were FreeBSD's "thing", but when you've got a few dozen servers to update, waiting to compile each update is kind of a dealbreaker.

Playing with it a bit before bed tonight. Looks pretty slick.

Dear gods, though... they're still shipping it with sendmail? O_O

I finished that one just a few weeks ago. Thankfully the next one is due out in a month or so. :)

Hopefully there's not too much of a lag for the audiobook - they make the 4 hour drive to Dr. Girlfriend's place up north much more bearable, and Kobna Holbrook-Smith definitely does the writing justice.

And they're just fun to read. :) That's frequently missing these days, with all the crapsack countries and grimdark being all the rage.
