BSD Now 401: OpenBSD Dog Garage

This week’s BSD Now has a great title, and you can guess what the first linked article will be. The other items in this week are analytic and also entertaining in their own way.

BSD Now 398: Coordinated Mars Time

Along with the normal news summaries, the latest BSD Now offers a bounty to the first person implementing Coordinated Mars Time; a worthy idea.

BSD Now 395: Tracing ARM’s history

BSD Now has the usual roundup of news this week, and leads with an article about FreeBSD and ARM – useful for the BSD content, but also interesting cause it has a nice summary of how ARM designs came to be so important.

There’s BSD on Mars now, or that’s what the latest BSD Now tells me.

BSD Now 393: ZFS dRAID

I’d hope that a name like dRAID meant it was a DragonFly system, but no, as this BSD Now episode mentions it as a ZFS technology.  Plus the normal news and a tool called ‘just’.  Unfortunately ju.st is taken.

This week’s BSD Now is almost all FreeBSD-related, with mention of something I haven’t investigated enough yet: helloSystem.

BSD Now 391: i386 tear shedding

This week’s BSD Now is a little sad about FreeBSD 13/i386 going to a less-supported platform, but there’s plenty of links to other stories.

BSD Now 390: Commercial Unix Killer

The menacing BSD Now for this week covers a bunch of stuff, not just post hoc arguments, but there’s a special request: old retail BSD software.  If you have older commercial disks or images floating around, they want to know.
