• I've never used FreeBSD and have some questions

  Aside from being UNIX based, what similarities does it share with Linux? Both have monolithic kernels. Source based build systems are offered (ports, which are like the portage system on Gentoo) as well as binary build systems (pkg, which is like apt, yum, pacman, etc.) Both offer a lot of free software, though more licenses are compatible with FreeBSD like CDDL, which is not compatible Linux. Both let you... Source: 6 months ago

• FreeBSD turns 30 today!

  There's no mention of a birthday on their site, and its footer says 1995-2023. That must be just the site, because Wikipedia tells me FreeBSD's initial release was indeed, but not quite, 30 years ago, November 1st 1993. Still no birthday. Source: 11 months ago

• Computer

  I'm not the right person to ask this -- I just run it on whatever I happen to have. But I think sleep and wifi (for example) have issues with different hardware, so you'd have to do your homework. The FreeBSD handbook on freebsd.org is always very helpful to me. You can try it out with a live cd / thumbdrive to see how much supported hardware you've got. My Lenovo X1 from a couple years ago works for what I... Source: 11 months ago

• Can SGI’s Enthusiast Community Bring IRIX Back to Life?

  People are still actively working on Illumos. The last change was yesterday morning. * https://illumos.org People are still actively working on MirBSD. There's a CVS commit account that can be followed on the FediVerse. * http://www.mirbsd.org It's DragonFly BSD, not Dragon BSD, and the irony of that is that you missed FreeBSD, which is of course still going. * https://dragonflybsd.org * https://freebsd.org As... - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• X220 and beer. A lovely combo, especially with FreeBSD.

  A open source free and stable Unix-like operating system. Read more at http://freebsd.org. Source: 12 months ago

Anarchy Linux mentions (21)

• Manjaro Is Losing Ground Very Fast as A Linux Gaming Distro

  What these kind of articles never properly communicate is that unlike Manjaro, EndeavourOS directly uses the Arch repos, so for all intents and purposes is Arch. It's just an Arch installer, similar to Anarchy and to what Antergos used to be. Source: about 1 year ago

• what's the real best option for my old netbook?

  Anything below LXqt is going to suck really bad. I'd throw a minimal installation of some snapless Ubuntu or Debian based distro if I really wanted to use it for anything. MX Linux is a great option for something reliable, stable and lightweight. If you just wanna meme or experiment, go with arch using anarchy installer. Source: over 1 year ago

• archfi

  Use Anarchy installer. https://anarchyinstaller.gitlab.io/ it is easy gui followed steps install, but imho way better is to try to install it manually using arch wiki, since if any problems occurs, you will at least know, where to look at. Source: almost 2 years ago

• [OC] Desktop OS Market Share 2003 - 2022

  Archinstall would like to have a word with you. Anarchy Installer also exists. Both work wonders and give a working system out of the box. Just don't have extremely new hardware, or you'll be troubleshooting any distro. There's also AUR tools to give you a minimal browser to point to the wiki iirc. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Golden Drake Linux: Arch for gamers and game developers!

  Great question, and that's a thought that has crossed my mind now and then (though it would have to include options to modify configuration files, theming, etc., not merely install packages). The simple answer is that (a) I remember how much I benefited from Anarchy during my transition to Arch, so I see some value in this type of installer, and (b) I just really wanted to create my own custom installer. :) It's...
