@technomancy I had FreeBSD on an old one for years and it worked well until the fan died. Now I have it on a Dell I picked up for $30, and it works mostly well but I’m not sure about suspend/resume (it seems to work well when I’m sitting here, but some weird things have happened while it’s been in my bag, but also the power button is in a stupid place).

@technomancy Hey @ori — do I remember you having OpenBSD on a thinkpad?

Y'know how we all hate it when a restaurant's only web presence is a Facebook or Instagram page? Like, yeah, setting up a web site isn't *trivial*, but it's also not that hard, and if you're doing something public facing, you should really put in the effort, right?This post is about software projects who's only web presence is a github README.md.

@ori I've only been doing FreeBSD on a laptop for a few weeks now, and @technomancy is trying to see if he can use a BSD on a portable instead of Linux.

"Trust this browser?"Uh, *trust*? I don't know, man, that feels like a lot. How 'bout we just agree we're not going to ask each other too many questions?

I’ll stop using awk when it stops making me look like a friggin’ rockstar wizard to people who can’t figure out how to get Excel to do what they want.

Sometimes people just come across wrong on mailing lists. Whether it’s context loss or a lack of social cues, not *everyone* who reads as a belligerent asshole online is, in fact, a belligerent asshole.And then again…

@Rairii @csilverman I have definitely put both — and ± in comments. Nice and easy on Plan 9. :-) But then, I occasionally forget other environments can’t handle things like naming the alpha channel α, for example. 🤣
