If You upgrade PKGBASE FreeBSD from 15.0 to 15.1-RELEASE version make sure You have these packages installed after 'pkg upgrade' command:
- FreeBSD-pam
- FreeBSD-pam-dev
- FreeBSD-pam-lib
- FreeBSD-zstd-lib
Because w/o them - You will not be able to login(1) or use pkg(8) at all.

- add 'The Power to Serve!' as its main motto
- use nice Beastie Daemon image
- move 'dark/light' switch to top with rest of the settings

Another great article that goes straight to latest Valuable News issue - thank You for writing it :)
Now ... I would probably add least needed and least technical comment here - but that also hit me in the past ... the 'special' ASCII character ... misalign like 9 in 10 times.
Using 'regular' chars like '|' or '+' instead always aligns these ASCII diagrams well.
Regards,

Thank You for another interesting article - will definitely add it to next VN.
... and yes - ZFS on Linux mostly just works - even with root on ZFS.
Its not hard to achieve that.
The valuable ingredient that is missed most of the time is ZFS Boot Environments.
Its little harder to add and integrate ZFSBootMenu - but that is also doable - a lot of guides exist out there.
Another level is making that root on ZFS work with LUKS encryption ... but that leaves additional unencrypted /boot partition with EXT4 or XFS.
That is the level of integration Linux is not able to reach - the FreeBSD level. FreeBSD does not need any additional UFS /boot partition to 'decrypt' the root on ZFS that is installed on GELI encryption - its all supported by the FreeBSD loader(8) - the loader(8) asks you for GELI password before boot - then after typing proper password you have decrypted GELI and root on ZFS with ZFS Boot Environments to use.
What is more interesting - is that a Linux distribution that offers root on ZFS (with LUKS or not) with integrated ZFSBootMenu does not exist - there are only guides/howtos/... no single Linux installer does this ... which is strange because if you check these guides/howtos its relatively simple - you just need to type needed commands in particular order and its done.
More like political problem then a technical one ...

Most UNIX people know the bash(1) fork bomb :(){:|:&} code.
If you wnat to check the graphical equivalent then try this one :)
FreeBSD # pkg install -y mesa-demos
FreeBSD # pkg info -l mesa-demos | grep /bin | while read I; do ${I} & done
Not really fork bomb - just 300+ :)

This is one of the flagship examples of HOW BAD the #FreeBSD marketing is.
FreeBSD has best features often DECADES before Linux prises them as 2nd coming of Christ ... same for FreeBSD Jails from 2000 while Docker started at 2013.

...but there is one thing that #Deltachat does not provide while it works perfectly fine with #Signal ... the desktop client that works on #FreeBSD and is available in #FreeBSD pkg(8) packages.
The 'web' approach (such as https://web.whatsapp.com for WhatsApp) would also satisfy my needs - I can use a client in the browser - but if there is no 'native' client and no browser client option for #FreeBSD - that means total NO-GO for me.

Even if You do not use FreeBSD Bhyve virtualization at all - its still good to install 'vm-bhyve' or 'vm-bhyve-devel' package to have BETTER device listing in the system.

As #FreeBSD moves from far-from-perfect freebsd-update(8) to #PKGBASE that will be handled by separate pkg(8) repository - keep in mind that #FreeBSD will still have its #Base #System separate from third party pkg(8) packages.
Some details below.

As I am a big fan of X11 - and I really look forward to the latest X11 fork XLibre - I decided to create its logo/wallpaper - as I believe no one else did it.

I just fucking love this!
Fuck retarded Wayland bullshit.
Bring X11 back to its pinnacle ... and it already started to happen.
... and a message to all companies that tried to 'kill' X11: "Fuck You Too!"

I like your idea - but I do not have now time to find best way to merge all this - so I decided to add your version as jmore.6 and it will be there till I have time to work on this.
- https://github.com/vermaden/jmore/blob/master/jmore.6
For now - this seems like a best solution to have 'both' versions.

Generally I like the idea to include IPv6 ... but I need to check the details.
But do not worry - if our visions will differ too much - I will just include yours jmore(8) as jmore.6(8) for example - it a valuable addon.
Thank You for taking the time to make that upgrade :)

Seems that most important part of Minecraft server article was first sentence about FreeBSD Jails security.
After lots of questions on Hacker News/Lobsters I decided to add 'UPDATE 1' about it.

You may find jmore(8) a usable tool to list and manage these jails :)

I believe you just repeated what I said about CentOS - but in multiple sentences instead of just one :)

From what I know - CentOS as we knew it - a RHEL clone - is dead.
There is only CentOS Stream now - something between Fedora and RHEL.
