Is OpenBSD a good choice for servers?

>>107647365
For many reasons yes. It comes with a very easy to use (and effective) firewall, has all unnessecary daemons disabled by default, has pledge and unveil for sandboxing applications, and is constantly being audited for security issues. It also comes with a lot of documentation and homegrown software that is easy to configure. Releases are stable but whenever a new security problem is found all you have to do is run syspatch and then it's taken care of, you don't have to upgrade anything.
However if you're running a server that will recieve a lot of traffic FreeBSD may be a better choice, it has jails, ZFS, the fastest network stack of any OS, and a bigger ports tree. A deficiency of OpenBSD is its lack of support for journaling filesystems. You could use FreeBSD as a load balancer and OpenBSD as a backend if you find that you like OpenBSD, maybe by running it in bhyve.

I read it. Poster is defending qanonsense, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yqfvka7QDO4

the poster is making the core claims:
1) leftist and jews have underdeveloped emotional brain regions
2) this makes them hate cuteness
3) hating cuteness makes them want to go full qanon satanist and harm children
4) watching cute anime girls is a sign of being righteous
5) we need to make memes about cuteness to weed out those jew and leftist evil doers

Meanwhile back in reality we know the overwhelming vast majority of jews and leftist do not rape and torture children. The only interesting thing to extract from this post is why some people are repulsed by cuteness.

You only have to apply as much time to system administration as you want to.
>It inherits the Unix mindset where the system is a miserable little pile of loosely connected tools and the human is expected to glue them together through arcane commands and configuration files. Complexity is not reduced, it is pushed onto the user and normalized as a virtue.
Doing everything yourself via shell scripts is only one approach to using a Unixlike. Also, define 'arcane'. Most unixen come with manpages. To find out about some particular aspect of your system all you have to do is issue "man -k <thing>". Windows has no such thing for its internals.
>The result is a system no single person can fully understand
Are you fucking serious rn? No, really, you're telling me that Windows is something that one person can understand from top to bottom?
If you think it's good for computers to 'amplify human thought' then don't you think a system that lets you do what you want with it would be in line with those ideals?
>Instead of demanding better abstractions, the culture defends rough edges as character building.
Debatably true. Plan 9 refines a lot of the concepts from Unix however it never reached adoption.
>It fosters an attitude that resists the ideals of clarity, empathy, and intellectual humility that the great figures of computing actually stood for.
Intellectual humility? Dude, fuck off. This is just a verbose way of saying that it's bad to ever challenge users. What you get then is a bunch of complacent idiots who can't solve problems. Which is why we're in such a rut now.

>>107647035
Ubuntu isn't Linux, it's pozzware.

>>107648492
It seems that you know about Plan 9 and how the original Unix people created it specifically to move past Unix’s own limitations. Do you also know that Plan 9 itself was influenced by systems like Oberon and Cedar, which were already pushing toward coherent, higher level environments long before Linux doubled down on Unix compatibility. If even Unix’s creators felt the need to escape Unix, defending Linux as something that needs to be defended on philosophical grounds does not really make sense.

>>107646962
>>107647087
I agree with all of this. Lisp machines, Smalltalk, and Oberon have a lot of these ideas.

>>107648492
>What you get then is a bunch of complacent idiots who can't solve problems. Which is why we're in such a rut now.
That's what you get with Unix. Unix people blame everything on a "skill issue" of the users, so they never fix anything and they complain about anyone who makes things better, like you're doing right now. It's been the same since the Unix-Haters Handbook.

by the sounds, Spotify fucked up here.
cba looking up the technicalities but even they seem to be pretty much admitting they got scraped and the worst they can do is make the culprits register with a new email. Torrenting 87 million music files might be a different story entirely, for sure. But they haven't done that yet and I've seen no suggestion here anyone has actually done anything 'illegal' per se.

Spotify is trash. And if there was a way like Rimusic to pull bandwidth from their servers without them even knowing I would use it constantly

The US is not a Republic and hasn't been for some time.
We just vote in the face we can direct our impotent anger towards while those in power just do whatever the fuck they want to do to us.

Maybe the gen Zs and Alphas will get the fire to tear it all down and start over if things get bad enough. The Millennials were poised to make positive changes but got side tracked by race and tranny nonsense.

I bought a Dell laptop from Costco. Been reading madly about Win10/11 changes the last ten years.

If YOU bought the laptop, would you:
1) offline hack and backup drivers and install clean Win11 enterprise
2) just offline and MAS to enterprise (I think it comes with Home) and manually debloat dell shit and use util with windows?

A) what's the difference with Win11 24 and 25?
B) should I be using WinToys exclusively or use Chris WinTools AND (or) ShutUp10?

I knew a lot about WinXP/7/8.1 but changed careers a decade ago and am out of the loop, bought new shit due to the shortage scares and holding out since COVID
