       rasops(9) supports RI_ROTATE_CW and RI_ROTATE_CCW config elements but some mild hacking would be required

       hmm, the installed system boots but hangs at repeated output of `> init: can't open /dev/console: Device not configured`... any hints?

       got X running, but xrandr -o won't budge, need to figure out how to make a xorg.conf (this feels extremely retro) or how to install some wayland compositor

       @mntmn I really want to try this out. Not a big X11 fan but it was pretty easy getting a usable desktop on other machines so a pocket would be fun with this.

       @cararemixed it is extremely snappy as it's just cpu writing pixels to framebuffer with nothing in between...

       @mntmn yeah. Xenocara seems reasonably maintained. I think I should like it more given the name. 😂

       @mntmn oh yeah, openbsd does that :D this way, even if a bad actor get a stack overflow, calling instruction at a fixed offset result in random instruction. This way, a working exploit need to figure out where the instructions it need to call are and that change after each reboot so getting a persistent exploit is harder.It's all defense in depth

       @mntmn @barebox A very naïve question, but why does OpenBSD need barebox to boot? What does the firmware that comes shipped with MNT laptops not have to make it capable of doing so? Question is more so for my education :)

       browser benchmarks on a device running a usb-root openbsd deployment with no video acceleration are not going to be much use to anyone, even setting aside that openbsd isn't a performance-oriented software project
