I've run various Linux distros, but with little exposure to other Unix-like operating systems. I want to explore different ways of doing things on a computer, and I'm curious about the BSDs. I've briefly looked at FreeBSD and NetBSD.

Now I'm giving OpenBSD a go with beginner's mind.

I use the OpenBSD install image to create an encrypted, console-only base configuration that can be customized further for various tasks.

This is how I do it...

From Ironclad Operating system Developer:

"Since we are talking about the US...

This 14 at 11 am PST Ironclad is having an online presentation at UC Berkeley's IEEE branch (the home of the BSD family of OSes) talking a bit about Ironclad as a project and how formal verification can help operating system development.

Ill share here (whenever I have it) a jitsy link for joining the presentation for those interested"

Even Gplv3 licensed project but interesting one for everyone interested in #osdev

Root Moose

At some point you are going to get tired with fawking around with the Google, Apple, Microsoft, OpenAI, etc. of the world and want to control your compute services on your own terms. Why do you have that NVIDIA / AMD gpu (or two) at your site anyway?

None of the 'entrenched' mega-corps have any services or technologies that are special enough to keep you from your goals using open source tools. Machine learning tools are useful; GenAI is BS with a rarefied use case more akin to a circus stunt and plagiarism as a service than real, repeatable results you can incorporate into a solution and/or support pipeline.

`man xterm` is... a very long read. But interesting! 🙂

I haven't messed with xterm in years until today, and I used these posts to help bang it into shape on OpenBSD:

Though written in 2016, the information is still very relevant in 2025.
