Kino.

A loicense file isn't going to impede me from recycling your code.
I don't really care about the GNU vs BSD debate. I use (Net)BSD because it is simply better, not because of the license.

anyone tried getting looking glass to work on freebsd?

tiny old monitors are cute. I hooked up my machine to a tiny monitor and it looked so retro.

but when working with GIMP I need 1920x1080

You reminded me of Project Looking Glass, a Sun Microsystems initiative to develop a three-dimensional desktop environment for free and open-source operating systems. I miss Sun. /bug/ wasn't supposed to make me cry, but alas.
>anyone tried getting looking glass to work on freebsd?
I researched "Looking Glass Linux" and it seems to depend on KVM. So you would have to remove that barrier. FreeBSD does not support KVM.

>>107661850
By the way, your GEGL plugins work on [Free,Open,Net]BSD. I tested them. I don't like GIMP, though. For me, ImageMagick.

Yesterday I learned docker (via podman) works on freebsd ... and has for like 3 years. Is it simply terrible and thus people don't talk about it or is it something people aren't familiar with?
>>
>>107661992
FreeBSD has better docker already, why would anyone bother?
>>
>>107662111
There are some things that are distributed only via docker. Using docker from freebsd sounds far less miserable when compared to installing linux to do it.

Could I read their docker compose or whatever and piece together what they are doing in realty to install the tool? Sure. Do I care enough to expend the energy to remake the wheel? Almost certainly not.

>>107661992
Aversion to software comin from Linux, primarily.
This reaction is unique to its community, composed mainly of boomers over 60 years old. Developers, on the other hand, love Linux; FreeBSD, starting with the 15.0 series, implements Linux epoll and improves LinuxKPI to run Linux drivers with minor modifications.
