any tips how to make my install declarative/ reproducible?. For troonix, there is nixOS that allows me to have all my system encoded in a config and easily deploy it if I change drives.

I think he's cute.

And some trivia: Daemons are programs that run in the background for a long time and manage system resources. Beastie, the FreeBSD mascot, is holding a trident to show that daemons can fork processes. The trident shows that the daemon can manage and control system resources without needing help from the user.

FreeBSD is VERY poorly designed compared to OpenBSD. Basically, it's a hacked together piece of shit intended for companies with some deranged tranny hords using it despite it. OpenBSD has no corporate donors and it's for the people.

Try again
>>
>>107269128
They really don't unless you count some random guys hardware store and anyway it doesn't change it that FreeBSD should never have existed. It's a massive piece of shit in every regard. NetBSD is pretty bad too, but it gets a pass since it's an obscure meme OS that's not taken seriously by anyone. People should expect more from FreeBSD since it's most popular therefore the variant people are most likely to try.

How does this affect someone who's not a developer?
>>
>>107269371
It doesn't. And even if you are, it still doesn't.
You can write GPL code all you want on any BSD.
People who regurgitate this stupid meme over and over are stupid script kiddies who think that they're awesome kernel hackers for ricing their Arch setup

true.
Will some of BSD family troon out intro Rust like old Linus did?
Hopefully at least OpenBSD will remain smart about it.
>>
>>107269104
>cuck license
It is the most free one (for developers).
It doesn't give the developer right to "enslave" other developer to publish back code.
Is that more or less free is a matter of philosophy. It's not strictly worse, for me it is better - it is close to Public Domain, or world without any copyrights.

You want slaves who work for free while you copy their work and get paid 6 figures without understanding how it works. It's clear that you don't, otherwise you wouldn't call
>git push https://github.com/myshittyforkmirror
"slavery". Kill yourself.
>>107269830
Already did, it's called GNU/Linux.
>>
>>107269818
what GNUtards don't want to admit that they strive for a leftist high fantasy world where everyone kisses everyones ass and everyone is treated with mutual respect. which hardly, if ever, works in practice. the GPL gets violated all the time. tbf though it has resulted in liberated code that we wouldn't have otherwise, and the good intentions are there
>>
>>107269844
>the GPL gets violated all the time
that is right.
Famously, Grsecurity was crying all the time about it (and/or later then started not publishing own kernel patches and everyone started crying about them).

I see some benefit to the "we force you to give back" but BSD is closer to lack of copyrights.

The GPL is not communist, it's actually peak libertarian.
>>
>>107269950
Deranged or bait. Reminder: copyleft, not copyright.
>>
>>107269957
Copyleft is decided by copyright.
Owner's word is final.
Imagine going to a public park, being caught shitting in front of children's playground, and screeching about being enslaved by the system because you cannot do that on property that does not belong to any single person and doesn't ban you from being in it.
If public parks were licensed the way BSD code is, shitting in them right in front of children would be completely legal. This is what you want to do.
>>
>>107269988
Cool, cool. Can you name some prominent GNU/FSF people who are libertarians, and not socialists like Stalinman?
>>
>>107269861
>to use our code, feel free to write your own
I don't believe much in law of copyrights.
>>
>>107269988
>going to a public park,
software is not same as physical space
totally bogus "analogy"
>>
>>107269957
What do you think libertarianism is? The GPL (and thus copyleft) are agreements that parties voluntarily choose to adopt.

Neither the GPL nor copyleft force source code to be publicly available, that's open source nonsense. The GPL merely means that users who receive a copy of the program should also receive a copy of the source code. What that means is that every person or corporation that modifies GPL software but doesn't redistribute doesn't have to publish their changes to upstream. Also devs can merely add source code in a zipped folder in the install path and call it a day, no need for GitHub bullshit.
>>
>>107270052
It is. Public park isn't analogy there, it's literally equivalent idea, a foundation of everything good in human society.
You're free to copy public park's layout and sit in it alone walled off, nobody forces you to let other people in.
But if you want to contribute to original public park, then feel free to do so, and don't act like not being able to wall off your contributions is slavery, because it isn't.
The only difference is that software is trivial to copy, and that's exactly why you have 0 excuses not to push a copy to a public repo available to everyone, it costs nothing, takes 5 seconds, fuck off you filthy kike.

I make copy of park
I invite guests
you want to sue/arrest me since I didn't left the park blueprint around.

see your analogy is stupid is breaks up here.

So much torture for that kind of sanity.

You invited them for free instead of making them pay, right?
It's just your personal park that people can use, it isn't given to anyone else as a paid service, correct?
>>
>>107270057
Nah bro, I'm a professional proprietranny, I absolutely see 0 difference between providing a seesaw in a park vs selling seesaws directly when original patent of that particular seesaw explicitly states that I must make them repairable and provide manuals to end users.
Also this is literally slavery, I should be allowed to force users to call my line that's never handled fast enough, wait 3 months for the shipment of the seesaw, then send it back after replacing one faulty bolt that broke my client's knee, that will be $5999.98 + tax that I offload to the end user.

>It's just your personal park that people can use, it isn't given to anyone else as a paid service, correct?
nah it's paid to enter. built on MY land, with MY mexicans, using MY materials.

your analogy breaks down because you said about doing things in YOUR actual park on your land.

anyway, BSD is the licence where you can't force anyone to do anything (almost), breaks chains of copyrights.
>>
>>107270293
My objectively correct equivalence doesn't break down because you're allowed to do that if you read the GPL, nigger.

Ansible isn't exactly reproducible/functional/idempotent/stateless as Nix/NixOS is, especially when you consider you can't use to do something like pinning the entire OS tree and packages to a known-working commit.
>>
>>107272718
no home os is declarative. programs work ln the assumption that shit is working normally, as it has for the past 50 years. you not gonna get something lime this, unless its specific tinketroon shit deisgned from the ground up like nixos
