If you have a computer that features an Intel GPU, today might be the best day to #RUNBSD :runbsdBg: just like it was for the past decades. The inteldrm driver on *BSD doesn't contain this bullshit.
Intel's GPU Drivers Now Collect Telemetry, Including 'How You Use Your Computer'
My SO made me the lovely diamond painting attached to this Toot.
I was asked (some moons ago) to join the EuroBSDcon board - which I humbly accepted.
My talk for EuroBSDcon 2023 in Coimbra, Portugal was accepted.
I feel so incredibly honored to serve the BSD community that I fall short of words. Thank you all, really - from the bottom of my h3art (pun intended) :flan_heart:
@swagpussc The basic thing to understand is that this is not a world of Windows.
There have always been other operating systems, and in particular there has been, since the late 1960s, a large class of operating systems that are: Unix; one of the many flavours of Unix that #Unix split into in the 1970s; or someone creating an operating system that's very much like Unix, from the ground up, a decade or 2 later.
#Linux is (the kernel of) the last sort of operating system.
They're the full operating system "nut", both "kernel" and "shell", in one and can trace their lineages, complete with long version control histories going back decades, to old #Unix flavours of the 1970s.
They're not the same as one another.
