We're approaching that time of year in the PNW in the US where the spigot turns on and we get layers of clouds for days. This article reminds me to take the time in the next few days to appreciate both sunrise and sunset.

Zero configuration conflicts/issues the whole time?

I have a Lenovo laptop running OpenBSD 8.0.

What I really appreciate about it is I started with OpenBSD 7.6. Using sysupgrade, I went through every release (and syspatch) and just now successfully upgraded to 8.0. It still works great!

Somewhat related: Something I learned about South Korea is that a non-Korean service can't export detailed location data, so Google Maps doesn't work there. No turn-by-turn. Navar Maps is a local one to use if you're there.

They are still technically at war with the North, so some strange things like this come up. Awesome place to visit generally! Seoul is an awesome city, and Busan is gorgeous.

In the end this made news about how the surveillance economy works and should further freak people out about it. This helps long term I think.

I recently visited Seoul for the first time and learned about it while there. I only had time to briefly explore the first floor of building 21, unfortunately.

Recently visited Seoul, Korea, and took the subway to Yongsan station and walked over to what is left of the Yongsan Electronics Market (building 21).

1) It still exists. Cool. 2) What's left: Nobody taking their boxes of cables away!

The cross build tooling, specifically around build.sh, makes the process of building a kernel + userland straight forward.

Use your best build hardware to build for your test hardware.

What I've found beautiful about -J is the host you jump through requires no privileges on the final host. Only my laptop has the SSH key to access my home server, not my cheap VPS.

And this allows me to have zero open ports on my home internet. I do a reverse tunnel to my VPS from my home server (in a FreeBSD jail), and that port is what my laptop client jumps through.

Living in the PNW it's good to have an interest in types of clouds and weather generally. Helps keep ones sanity during the rainy season.

But you can just use any cloud blob storage provider (including the big ones) along with the rclone utility. rclone supports many.

I even use rclone to sync photos to OneDrive I can then share with family/friends.

I have 2 listed: HP-35 and HP-41CX.

Still use an HP-11c.

Will die on that hill defending RPN!
