You Have Installed OpenBSD. Now For The Daily Tasks.

Despite some persistent rumors, installing OpenBSD is both quick and easy on most not too exotic hardware. But once the thing is installed, what is daily life with the most secure free operating system like?

Remember, #OpenBSD snapshots are now 7.7-beta, this is an excellent time to test - https://www.undeadly.org/cgi?action=article;sid=20250302115123 (the most useful time to test for the upcoming release) #unix #libresoftware #freesoftware #bsd #development #security #testing

Soothing 32 update: baked clay and player_api support

I've just released an update of "Soothing 32", my @Luanti texture pack.

Baked clay is slightly desaturated compared to other nodes and its basically clean appearance turns it into a great tool for builders (upper row, mod by TenPlus1).

Also, now the default character doesn't look off anymore :D

Working on a dialogue system for @Luanti

I think it's time for Linux Mint to base their main distro upon Debian (may be the testing branch) instead of Ubuntu and have a backup distro based on something like NixOS or GNU Guix.

Ubuntu without the GNU utils is no more a GNU+Linux distro.

On February 24, twelve free software enthusiasts met in #Kinshasa in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) for a #LibreLocal community meetup. They shared their experience in using and contributing to #FreeSoftware and discussed how to foster #LibreSoftware in the DRC.

#SchleswigHolstein goes #OpenSource

Softwaremonopole sind teuer und stehen dem #Datenschutz im Weg. Deshalb setzt die Verwaltung in Schleswig-Holstein zukünftig auf #OpenSourceSoftware. Seit kurzem können wir im Gericht #LibreOffice nutzen, Ende des Jahres wird es Pflicht. Der Umstieg fiel uns leicht, da wir es auch zu Hause nutzen. Und von unseren Kolleg:innen hat auch noch keine:r gemurrt.

Und ihr? Habt ihr schon gewechselt?

I reiterate, now that #openbsd -current is 7.7-beta (https://www.undeadly.org/cgi?action=article;sid=20250302115123) it's a fine time to fetch a snapshot and test all the nice improvements. #openbsd #current #upcomingrelease #77beta #development #testing #freesoftware #libresoftware
