NetBSD 10.1 on a Panasonic CF-NX3: in c/netbsd

[–] tpid98 2 points 4 months ago

You can always try out a VM if you are comfortable with VMs or FreeBSD on a usb stick with NomadBSD. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=822qnqPryBU

https://nomadbsd.org/

I use NamadBSD to "try out" hardware to see how compatible it is. There is also SDF.org, one of the largest NetBSD sites on the web. Enjoy the adventure. I hope 2025 a good year for you.

Thank you very much. Their experience will help others. And it can keep worthy machines out of the recycling bin.

We're hoping YOU will come speak at our conference at the University of Ottawa!

Tutorials: June 11-12, 2025 Conference: June 13-14, 2025

Instructions for submitting your abstract and lots more info are here: https://bsdcan.org/2025/papers.php

#BSDCan #netBSD #openBSD #freeBSD #BSD

We invite talks by and for users, sysadmins, researchers, developers, enthusiastic hobbyists, students, retirees, social scientists...if you can talk for 50 minutes about a topic directly related to the BSD derivative projects or community or can deliver a technical tutorial for BSD users, we want to hear about it!

The website has a big page of hints for your first proposal and what we're looking for in a talk, and a large archive of past topics is available. (But don't let that limit you...maybe we just haven't heard YOUR talk yet!)

We think everyone should be able to participate in community events and though we have a small budget, we hope to accommodate as much of our community as we can.

We have a mask policy (your audience will be wearing N95s)
We stream talks online and with live chat
Can't attend in person? We can host your talk remotely
We reimburse speakers for their travel and hotel fees. (If fronting these fees would be a hardship, apply anyway and we'll talk!)

Apply today!

The cost of maintaining roads is astronomical in c/fuck_cars@lemmy.ml

[–] tpid98 1 points 7 months ago

Has anyone done a study to see if rail is cheaper to maintain than roads? Good public transport infrastructure would go a long way to preserving road conditions and keeping traffic lighter.

If only there was a way to get all of those people there and back home without a car. in c/fuck_cars@lemmy.ml

I am sure many here have seen this, but this photo seems very informative on the waste of space that is parking lots.

[–] tpid98 1 points 7 months ago

@EuroBSDCon fundraising news: We have a commitment of €500 from community member @openbsdams. This gets us closer to our €2000 goal for hardware: a second ATEM streaming deck plus wireless microphone and accessories needed for EuroBSDCon Dublin. If you can help the make our video efforts it will go toward making EuroBSDCon and future *BSD community videos easier to produce and of higher quality. The first round of hardware donations were used in the main room of BSDCan and the FreeBSD Dev Summit to good results. Boosts welcome.

Discussion is needed on this topic. At one point in the first video they actually talk about the price coming down once they can start mass production. My opinion from the sidelines is that the market for this product is still in the pre-Elon Tesla days when their first roadster was NOT cheap and handmade, and when it was more a proof of concept. Create the product to create the market. I wish them luck.

Still in development, but certainly a step in the right direction. Seems a perfect runabout vehicle to get you to public transportation and to get groceries on the way home. Hopefully wider adoption can bring the price down. It would also function as a grid connected battery as mentioned in this "Living on Earth " segment. https://loe.org/shows/shows.html?programID=24-P13-00035
