These are the operative words. With OpenBSD, you get this out of the box and everything just works. With other operating systems, you have to do a lot of the legwork that's already been done for you with OpenBSD and make sure you didn't break things with your configuration.

I really like OpenSMTPD; no nonsense and configuration feels rather modern compared to the legacy stuff that's out there.

I recently updated an older OpenBSD router and firewall and the amount of native IPv6 support right out of the box makes this an unbelievable breeze.

Yeah, but the words gross negligence is legal for you're going to be sued for a whole lot of money.

It depends. You can expect a 5 to 15% performance hit depending on the task. In OpenBSD, security comes first and performance comes second.

It is, by far, my first choice for a router/firewall. It has so many niceties for this, all well integrated OOTB, and you can deploy something top notch in no time at all.

While I daily Linux on my workstation, OpenBSD is my favorite OS, by far, and I use it wherever it makes sense for me.

OpenBSD fixed this back in 2017.

This is the last major reason for anyone to use Windows nowadays, with the exception of legacy applications.

Windows' days are numbered.

This is no joke; for better or worse, I see a day when I'm paying a lot more for this and it will be a bargain.

It's not hype; touch screens won for mobile devices and that's why they all work this way.

Completely concur with this, though I do miss being able to browse for places in Google Maps and easily see when I was last there. This functionality disappeared when my location information went local only.

What's the point of these Internet points?

Some of that is because the other male is whining about something that's really bothering him, but, as a parent, things tend not to affect you as much unless it's directly related to your kid.

It's not just your ID; it's your address, phone number, and the list goes on.

Yep. While I've yet to run it on my production workstation, I absolutely love it for single purpose tasks.

This is the way.

It's total bullshit; I should be able to print all the guns I want. Prop guns, plastic replicas of my guns; I shouldn't have to go though this BS.

While I run Linux on my production workstation, I use OpenBSD as my router and firewall at home. I find the configuration of OpenBSD for this a lot more simple and everything that's needed, even for IPv6, is in the base install.

No thank you. While I'm productive when mobile on my 14” 2.8K screen, I'm more productive with the extra headroom on my single 27” 4K at the office.

Android is becoming more Apple-ized everyday; it's horrible and more and more APIs get neutered or disappear, further limiting functionality available to developers.

It was a GPT.

Right there with you. When Microsoft started pushing Windows 11 over Windows 10, that's when I decided I had enough of my experience being dumbed down. I switched over to Linux, haven't looked back, and couldn't be happier. I still run a Windows virtual machine for those times that I need something native to that operating system, but I should have made the move years ago; Microsoft doesn't care about Windows anymore.

> plastic is better than aluminium. It is robust (if done right), lighter and doesn't have good thermal conductivity (which makes laptop usage possible

Yep. I miss my plastic phones too.

Same with Windows; that's why I switched to Linux.

Rivian uses the Unreal engine.

I haven't been to the Netherlands, but I would say Paris is pretty close to 100%!

I use runit on my production workstation and don't think about it; it just works.

I know Rivian does this.
