This is just a bunch of touchy feely "what were my friends doing" zeitgeist.
What is true is that people were learning Linux or BSD (because reasons), found that it was great, and Mac OS X was becoming a better "desktop *NIX" faster than Linux was. Not because they were afraid of being "boring PC guys." Not everybody felt this way, but practically speaking, UNIX underpinnings helped sway pragmatists.
Nobody needs to side with Microsoft to get "more versatile hardware." Just go back to Linux.

They've basically said Swift is sorta-beta by not solidifying ABIs until maybe Swift 3. Until then they will make auto-updaters for migrating your code.

I dug into building my own when I wanted more control over DNS servers but didn't want to run that in a VM or have a large dedicated machine. I eventually had it take over DHCP services too.

Works real well with BSD and it even has WiFi in the box I built.

Comment Did Siri even answer this question before? (Score 1) 144
I would guess that this question would have gone to a search engine. Now they've got hooks to answer the question directly which... is based on a subscription service.
The API would probably have be retooled to
* work when you aren't signed in
* flag and separate commands and UI from logged in and not logged in
* return *more* annoying messages about not being subscribed when you tried to interact with the results (clicking or asking follow up questions)
It's not worth bothering to answer these questions you'd usually take action on in the service if you aren't subscribed to it. This is really kind of a dumb thing to whine about
Comment Update program now changes your routing tables (Score 1) 158
Apparently the "upgrade" program on the CD twiddles with your routing tables, in case you're having problems getting packages to download. By default my system wouldn't connect to the network, so I chose the shell option, cleared the tables, used dhclient on a different interface, and then restarted the process by running "upgrade." This *still* didn't work and was kind of confusing. Control-C out of the program shows that the routing tables got changed somehow (it sets the default route to the _external_ IP, I assume some "smart" detection is making this genius decision).
Anyway, if you have this problem, use the ! in the package URL selection process to drop out and change the network settings back. It does this modification early enough in the process that this works.
It was enough work to figure out what the problem was, and I don't have enough patience to deal with a known-abrasive community to file a bug report and do back and forth. So, hope this helps someone searching.

I use both, but my criteria is that if I need complicated pf rules, I use OpenBSD. OpenBSD is too "early 2000s" without something like:
* freebsd-update
* portsnap
* pkgng
Life is too short to do all the steps to update OpenBSD all the time.

So the manufacturers will required to make up what they think is "fair" for handling your data. They could make up anything and as long as they had a "policy," you're ok! How is that even "regulation?"
Oh, and it's now a crime to twiddle with your own car.
