@joel How is your FreeBSD journey going?

Sometimes OpenBSD drives me into rabbit holes, like when I am trying to find the xterm in its ports tree… 👀​

@Metaph That's not necessarily electric cars, this is an ungenuity of all manufacturers. Brits made a study in early 2020 touch interfaces are worse then texting while driving, and cannabis driving:

@mwl @dvl Not to my eyes 👀

@dvl Have I spotted @mwl there in the 2nd plan?

@feld Here's a statement on +1h after switching away from OpenBSD's Xwindow CWM to Wayland: https://youtu.be/8E0SOWo-Gsg?t=291

@pertho There is always "sysctl -d".

@feld I believe in his introducing video about Hikari @raichoo claimed longer battery life on a laptop after switching to Wayland.

@lattera The part on OS diversity starts here: https://www.youtube.com/live/0DdnAgKLdG8#t=7017

@vermaden First and foremost is the contextual shell history browsing. Ie. I type "doas" and navigate up with ↑ and history completion would only list command lines starting with doas…, if I would start navigating after writing "doas pkill", then only entries filtered by such a prefix would be available. ^R is bonkers, once you use this. @gumnos

@gumnos It's all about sane defaults here IMHO. I have found the FreeBSD's setup to be quiet friendly, while recently after installing OpenBSD and giving it a prolonged use, I was shocked how bare the shell setup was.

I have to admit I tried to convert to zsh few times, but never managed to fulfill my killer features set from tcsh. @vermaden

@gumnos @vermaden Well, I have never written a single script in csh, still tcsh has been my default shell since I abandoned a very slow bash 2.03. 🤣​

@gumnos tcsh complain on "Invalid null command" in such a case.

And if I am not mistaken @vermaden has a telling % in the prompt.

Couldn't agree more.

Hello!
#FreeBSD PkgBase

Thank you @emaste and Co.

Everyone please test!

@vermaden @wollman See audio/freebsd-13-mixer in ports for the tool with old command line interface.

Dear @lenovous, what's the point of painting plastic to look like titanium, if the plastic breaks apart on unscrewing... 😂​

@joel I believe sctd (a daemon written in Rust) bases the screen temp automation on redshift model.

@joel No love for tedu@ sct or based on it sctd?

@joel I am curious what packages lack in FreeBSD.
