@stefano Aren't it a bit late? For friday night?

Happy Friday #FreeBSD

net/sslh just came to my attention:"sslh accepts connections on specified ports, and forwards them further based on tests performed on the first data packet sent by the remote client."That sounds useful.https://www.freshports.org/net/sslh/#FreeBSD

@BoxyBSD @gyptazy Pity I missed that...

FreeBSD support has been committed to ARM Compute Library!This is a great step forward for running optimized ARM workloads on FreeBSD, especially for embedded and aarch64 platforms.Looking forward to testing and integrating it into real-world FreeBSD setups.#FreeBSD #ARM #ComputeLibrary #Embedded #OpenSource

Plasma: high CPU usage whilst the screen is locked<https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=293820>Can anyone suggest a workaround?#FreeBSD #KDE #Plasma #bug

Jail chroot escape via fd exchange with a different jailCVE-2025-15576"Note that in order to exploit this problem, an attacker requires control over processes in two jails which share a nullfs mount in which a unix socket can be installed."https://www.freebsd.org/security/advisories/FreeBSD-SA-26:04.jail.asc#freebsd #jails #security

@jae I am at standstill until my new CPUs come in. The Xeon X5560's in the R710 don't have the Unrestricted Guest instruction set. I have a pair of X5690's coming to replace the X5560's.

We’ve just published the first monthly report for our Cyber Resilience Act Readiness project, part of our 2026 effort to prepare the FreeBSD community for the European Union’s landmark cybersecurity regulation.This update provides a transparent look at our progress across key workstreams, including security and vulnerability handling, SBOM tooling, public documentation, and community engagement.Read the report:https://github.com/FreeBSDFoundation/all-projects/blob/main/Cyber%20Resilience%20Act%20Readiness/monthly-updates/2026-02.md #FreeBSD #OpenSource #Security #CyberResilienceAct #CRA

@kedara nice! I myself am also a fan of xfce and lxde depending on my mood.

Built some Grafana dashboard for my AS201379 BGP core-router (my two edge-routers will follow) Using node_exporter for FreeBSD and frr_exporter to get insights from the routing fabric.Nice!#grafana #networking #routing #ipb6 #freebsd #frr #monitoring

It's great to see more #Linux content aimed at new users. But....y'know what's even cooler? More #FreeBSD content aimed at new users!Just stumbled across this video while looking for other things. I think it does a good job at introducing it as a desktop.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2EFG3BO6oVY#tech #desktop #operatingsystem #unix #newbie #computer #pc #awesome

Three ways to look at the same machine - at the same time: a BIOS VGA console, a 256-color xterm, and a responsive web UI - all connected to the same cell and backup management backend.Which one would you pick?https://netbsd-cells.petermann-digital.de#netbsd #modernretrocomputing #freebsd #openbsd #dragonflybsd

We love seeing community members share why FreeBSD matters to them.Community member Stefano shares his experience and what keeps him choosing FreeBSD, from performance and reliability to the project’s philosophy.Read his full post here:https://it-notes.dragas.net/2026/03/16/why-i-love-freebsd/Tell us in the comments: what makes FreeBSD your platform of choice?#FreeBSD #OpenSource #BSD #Community
