A running description of activity related to DragonFly BSD.
That’s two days from now, on 11/5: James Lowden will be talking about COBOL and the gcobol in GCC, which is in part his fault. This should be good. RSVP and go, if you are near. Stream if you are not.
Update: here’s the video:
It’s short link title week!
Current event: Roguelike Celebration 2025 is happening right now if you read this soon enough. If you missed it, there’s a related Steam sale filled with roguelike games.
There’s a certain amount of aspirational ideas this week.
Your unrelated video link of the week: Lessons in Questioning.
NYCBUG’s trying out a new location tonight – go, if you are near.
Done while traveling.
Your unrelated video link of the week: new Cyriak video. (via)
I have a good mix today.
Your unrelated music video of the week: Return of the Phantom by VOID. 2025 or 1985? Can’t easily tell.
A little bit of a thread here on the current crawling plague.
NYCBUG’s got a new meeting space to try out, and it’s on September 3rd. Go, if you are near.
NYCBUG’s next meeting is in a new location on October 1st. Go if you are near. It sounds like November 5th and December 3rd events are lined up too.
I’ve had a surplus of links, so this is almost all stuff I’ve collected over the last few weeks, pre-scheduled.
The long-planned next meeting of NYCBUG is tomorrow. If you are going and have a Framework laptop, please bring it for testing HDMI. I assume it’s related to ongoing support work.
Meeting is canceled cause no presenter available.
I hope at least a few of the ideas this week are enjoyably novel to you.
I preassembled this list of links over time, so some of them have probably changed. For the “I’m sorry…” link, that just means more material.
Some of these links are relevant to my personal history. (dinosaurs, mining)
Your unrelated music of the week: Chali 2na x Cut Chemist – Melt Like Plastic. (via)
I’m on the road as I type this – though I’ll be back by the time it’s posted – and so the links are without much comment.
Your unrelated comics link of the week: What’s the best comic I’ve ever read? Lynda Barry is a master of the form. (via)
Dumbness or perhaps stupidity, today’s mini theme.
Your unrelated audio of the week: Squarepusher’s Ultravisitor, remastered.
May 14th, NYCBUG has Charlie Li presenting on the FreeBSD Laptop-Desktop Working Group, and DJ BSD? Anyway, go if you are near (but RSVP so they let you in!), and watch the stream if you are not.
Oddball link collection.
Unrelated link of the week: sign up for the Dobbstown Mirror. Getting something that is both real and also crazy in the mail is always nice.
Peter N. M. Hansteen runs a pf tutorial most years at BSDCan, and this year’s BSDCan is no different. He’s prepping now, so if you ask a good question, you’ll get taught the answer.
Some BSD-specific links mixed in.
Your unrelated music video of the week: DRASS – Nucleation Point. Makes me think I need to start making my phone less useful. (via)
