#OpenBSD 8.0 will be HUGE. I mean not in size but the amount of new features added since 7.9 to - current is incredible.

@joel … and this is where my friend, after I showed him my Fedi timeline on my phone, decided to mess with me by declaring that all social networks where IT peeps lurk are "the same" 😭 πŸ˜† #FailedSale

@joel @rqm for many things it does! Pizza! Coffee! Snowy mountain run! And of course OpenBSD releases!

Going to have a look, I recently started using OpenBSD (7.9) on a tiny desktop as a main general purpose desktop. Learning about unveil etc. since I couldn't upload images from within Firefox XD

I noticed you're combining Apple hardware and OpenBSD. Any chance you're using OpenBSD on an MBA M1?

@rqm other than tremendous VMM improvements, the main thing I have noticed, unusually, is that /dev/zero is about twice as fast. I see this in virtualized space and on baremetal.

@slowservers @rqm surprised you don’t want them to be twice as slow. :)

Ha! I don't try to make everything as slow as possible...

I actually did a benchmark yesterday confirming that raw disk images are considerably faster than qcow2, even for re-writes on a SSD. At least with the host's partition mounted sync, anyway.

@slowservers @rqm if we can now "just" get GEFS that would be amazing :)

@mischa@exquisite.social @slowservers@bsd.cafe I am still waiting for @ori@hj.9fs.net to supply us with a crowdfunding link to give his GEFS development a boost :)
