"Can you show what Cells for NetBSD actually does?"

Sure.

Fresh NetBSD install, deploy a Luanti server from a manifest, backup, restore, inspect processes inside the cell, then nuke everything again.

My personal record is <4 minutes.
The video is slower because OBS + VM + music nearly killed my laptop.

バイテン初投入感想

・4x5の面積4倍は伊達ではない
やはりデカい。ピントグラスの面積がとにかくデカい。構図はやや引いてみることで客観性を増す。展示会の作品をそのままリアルタイムで準備するような感じだった。
ピントはつかみやすい。ピントルーペは精密なピント確認だけでよさそう。

・ホルダーがネック
カメラ本体はまぁそれなりだが、やっぱりホルダーがクソでかい。
まぁ枚数はコストの方でそんなに撮らないだろうけれども...

・フィルム装填オペレーションは全く別
フィルムが片手で扱えないサイズなため、4x5や5x7の装填オペレーションが全く役に立たない。ここら辺はやっぱり慣れだろうな...と思った。

대신에 그 차이는 있는거 같은데 서양요리를 배워 돌아온 '한국인'의 식당 메뉴판이 싸가지 없는 것과 한국에 고향 요리집을 차린 이주 노동자의 식당 메뉴판이 서툰것은 구분해야 한다는 생각. 애초에 지금 싸가지 없다와 서툰으로 굳이 가치판단을 언급해 놓는거 보면 어떤 입장인지 잘 알거라 생각해.

RAM kits are now sold with one fake RAM stick alongside a real one

Link: tomshardware.com/pc-components
Discussion: news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4

RAM kits are now sold with one fake RAM stick alongside a real one to create a performance illusion — 1+1 'value pack' offers desperate psychological relief as the memory shortage worsens

Filler RAM won't make your system run any better, but it'll at least make it look good.

Well, this kinda blew up a bit. My original post here[1] has so far seen well over a hundred boosts, a new personal best :D

It has been suggested it is time to detail a bit about the configuration of this beast. Let's start with the basics: This is a straight-up 11rc2 installation on a stock . Many people have detailed how to install it, but one useful source of information is Alex Haydock's blog[2], and of course the NetBSD release documentation. The kernel config[3] is modified slightly from the default WII in an attempt to save a bit of memory.

Building was straight forward; no difference from building on i486 or i686. Simply make and make install, with the -f Makefile.NetBSD (the NetBSD-specific makefile is included with the snac sources).

Since snac won't do TLS for inbound connections, a TLS proxy is needed. My go-to nginx isn't in the 11rc2 PPC package repository at the time of writing, so I built it from pkgsrc myself. This only took a couple of hours.. But alas, it's a bit too memory hungry for my taste, even with a minimal configuration.

Next up, I found ttp[4]. It is a very small and simple proxy server, which works fine but cannot serve static files, nor does it support TLS 1.3. It is also incapable of dropping privileges, and since I want to run it as nobody I had to find a different way to pass port 443 traffic to it.

Luckily, NetBSD has npf, a built-in firewall that can do NAT and which is fairly easy to configure (at least with the usual good documentation and examples included). Picking up port 443 and NATing it to a high port for ttp to handle worked fine - and allows me to easily move traffic from one TLS proxy to another while I experiment.

TTP wasn't without problems - but they turned out to not be entirely its fault. I kept getting connection failures and snac kept exiting for no obvious reason.

After some fiddling around, the snac author suggested[5] that I was running out of file handles, which is indeed the case. Adding ulimit -n 1024 to /etc/rc.d/snac solved that issue as well.

Then my thoughts landed on an old acquaintance of mine - pound[6]. This is a reverse proxy with good TLS support, and recent versions can even serve static files in a fairly simple way. After a couple of bug reports, lots of help by the current maintainer, and some more fiddling, I got the most recent versions to build. Once the next release drops (4.21), I'll have a go at doing my first pkgsrc port update :)

The pound configuration[7] now seems to be fairly complete, even keeping out most random scanning attacks (yes, they have already started).

If you are a convention delegate I invite you to rank the resolution "Achieving Proportional Representation" very highly - I will be ranking it number 1. If you are not going to convention but share my concern that we have to deal with this logjam please encourage any delegates you know to rank it highly. Find it in the section "Governing in an inclusive and fair Canada." I want us to hold power, not be always trying to shame or guilt those who have it.

Screen shot of Tony standing in front of his now famous "cake", with his winter weight white beard wearing his field hat, wearing a blue green open necked shirt with an orange T-shirt from his video about supporting the NDP Convention resolution "Achieving Proportional Representation". The full text of Tony's recommendation is "Folks going to convention are being asked to help prioritize the resolutions we will consider during the Winnipeg Convention. Our campaign has stressed the need to deal with Canada's first past the post electoral system. For 106 years, ever since women and working men got the vote after the first world war, it has been keeping us from getting fair representation in Parliament. The resolution "Achieving Proportional Representation" would help us as a party increase the likelihood of moving this forward. If we don't deal with this logjam we will make little progress in Parliament on any other resolutions or policies. The resolution ranking process runs from March 13 to 16. If you are a delegate I invite you to rank the resolution "Achieving Proportional Representation" very highly - I will be ranking it number 1. If you are not going to convention but share my concern that we have to deal with this logjam please encourage any delegates you know to rank it highly. Find it in the section "Governing in an inclusive and fair Canada." I want us to hold power, not be always trying to shame or guilt those who have it.

ok this is the closest contemporary thing for me to the feeling of playing with deluxe paint on an amiga 1200 in the 90s :0

Weimers Kürzungsdrohung gegen die @DNB_AktuellesDeutsche Nationalbibliothek ist nichts anderes ein Herumspielen mit Ressentiments gegen schriftliche Überlieferung selbst, und die gedankliche Auseinandersetzung damit. Warum soll es Menschen erlaubt sein, Büchern ihre volle Aufmerksamkeit zu schenken, das sogar zum Mittelpunkt ihres Berufslebens zu machen? Bei einem entsprechend vorbereiteten Publikum kann man als autoritärer Sprachführer damit Punkte sammeln.

걍 모든 정보값이 중요한 것의 디자인에 대비를 약하게 주지 말 것을 주장하는 디자이너입니다 (모든 디자이너들이 접근성과 유니버셜 디자인이라는 개념을 알면 좋겠습니다)

우리집은 부모님 쓰실 물건에 큰 견출지를 붙이고 매직으로 글씨를 적어넣은지 좀 되었다. 화장품 등에 국한되지 않고 가전에도 붙인다. 파스텔톤에 흰글씨로 기능이 표기된 가전은 시인성이 특히 떨어진다. 뭐가 전원이고 뭐가 온도 설정이고 이런 게 딱 인식이 안 되니 어쩌다 한번 쓰려면 헤매게 되는 일이 생긴다. 게다가 버튼은 대개 터치식이라 터치 인식이 잘 안되는 어르신들은 계속 헤매기 일쑤. 상품 디자인에 보다 많은 사람의 편의가 고려되었으면 좋겠지만… [contains quote post or other embedded content]

Recurrent infections in children may result in an ongoing or increasing burden of chronic disease and disability, so vaccination policy should consider LC prevention.”
