FYI, if you forget how to update your bootloader, remember that your search results will be flooded with out of date posts and posts.

This thread is full of useful information:

forums.freebsd.org/threads/upd

Just about everything else that came up in top search results was anti-helpful.

This specifically helped me out, after I used an out of date method that blew my bootloader away:

-----------------------
newfs_msdos -F16 /dev/nvd1p1
mount -t msdosfs /dev/nvd1p1 /mnt
mkdir -p /mnt/efi/boot
cp /boot/loader.efi /mnt/efi/boot/bootx64.efi
umount /mnt
----------------------

It's one of those things that I don't do often enough for it to become habit.

Hey FreeBSD people :)

I have a particular service in one of my (many) jails, which I need to run as root, so it can manage the jailed ZFS datasets properly.

To achieve this, I guess editing the rc script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ would be the easiest option, but is it the best one?

As I don't know if the rc script could get overwritten in the future by pkg update, I would probably edit a copy and create a symbolic link to it.

Is this something that you would do as well?

【BUILT-IN PRO 電器專門店特約】美國佛羅里達州一隻名為「Splash」的水獺因具備高度嗅覺天賦,被訓練員發掘並培訓成為水中搜救成員。不足4個月時間便掌握基礎搜索技巧,首次任務已協助警方破案,現已成為多宗案件的重要力量。

「Splash」自4個月大起由訓練員Michael Hadsell培育,透過氣味辨識進行水底搜索訓練。Hadsell以三文魚作獎勵,讓牠在岸邊辨識落入水中的死者物品,並建立追蹤能力。憑敏銳嗅覺及學習能力,「Splash」極速掌握技巧,達到搜救基礎要求。

其首個任務在阿拉巴馬州進行,協助警方尋回一宗25年前謀殺案的凶器。任務成功後,「Splash」能力備受肯定,其後更參與逾20次行動,曾尋回4名失蹤者遺骸。Hadsell估計現年約兩歲的「Splash」仍可服役約7至8年,成為搜救隊伍的重要助手。

How UI degrades over time.

Top (Windows 95): great contrast, obvious shapes. Instantly readable.

Middle (Windows 11): shapes are still self-explanatory, but contrast is gone.

Bottom (Windows 11 Insiders): what am I even looking at? The only shape I can understand here is the Run button. Barely visible, though.

Then, on the left, there’s another something that says Run and has an icon. What is it? A window title? Another button? Why does it have to say Run twice?

We're at the halfway point of and I've been having a blast.

For me, one the best parts is getting to learn from other people as there are so many ways to solve these puzzles.

Here's a thread of some wonderful people whose solutions and explanations I enjoy reading.
