Did some really good progress on my FreeBSD server, running on OVHCloud:
- Re-Installed with ZFS instead of UFS via OVH rescue-system:
cat FreeBSD-14.3-RELEASE-amd64-zfs-rebuilt.raw.xz | ssh root@w.x.y.z "xz -dc | dd of=/dev/sdb bs=1M"
- Configured IPv4 and IPv6 networking in rc.conf
- Configured BastilleBSD to manage bridged VNET Jails
- Jail IPv6 networking via NAT66 and ULA addresses
- Solid firewall setup for NAT and packet-filtering via pf

"Modern Perl" è un libro sul linguaggio perl, leggibile gratuitamente online.
Ho letto i primi capitoli e mi sembra una risorsa interessante da condividere. Ne abbiamo parlato (poco) su "Hello World", MUC amicə del GUUF.
"Perl was developed by Larry Wall in 1987 as a general-purpose Unix scripting language to make report processing easier."

Do you guys use AI plugins in Neovim?
Comment sécuriser le compte root sur un système UNIX. C'est long et j'ai pas tout lu mais c'est intéressant 
Well, it's time. I'm releasing my tool that lets you aggregate patch and update status of hosts over ssh on unix-like systems.
The github repository has details as well as links to the exhaustive documentation.
It is my hope that at least another person finds it useful
Which "#awk(1)" other than GNU one does not die & continues to awk when a variable is assigned a string with embedded newline?
FreeBSD one, via "onetrueawk" from GitHub currently, dies.
#bugIsFeature #workingAsDesigned
# Option is supported at least by "awk(1)" of FreeBSD v14 (v20240422) & GNU (v5.3.1).
awk --version
input="9
7"
echo | awk -v arg="$input" '{ print arg }'
Thanks! It felt a little schlocky and disorganized to me. I was trying to get something out because the heavier subject was getting clogged in my "writing pipes." XD
I actually think modern #Linux/#UNIX #TUI programs could learn a lot from #MSDOS programs of old.
Especially Lotus 1-2-3. That had a very novel model for interaction that I've never quite seen replicated.
I'll have to find a vm of it somewhere and play with it again, after 31 years ;)
Ne abbiamo parlato qualche giorno fa nel GUUF.

I forgot to do full disk encryption while installing Manjaro (":
Is there any tool you recommend for post installation full disk encryption?

On a tangent, a job interview question for a systems programmer.
For a trivial fork bomb¹, explain what will happen _and_ estimate how long it will take (on hardware of your choice).
¹ For example,
#!/bin/sh
$0 & $0 &
For extra credit, explain what difference, if any, it will make if that is replaced by an equivalent program written in Common Lisp, Java, or Python.
