It's possible you've not heard of #boxyBSD

I was lucky to get a TIL moment when @stefano boosted it's existence into my feed.

However you should know about it, learn something about the user perspective from proxmox in the process, while working with a boxyBSD VM.

Here are some nice screencaps of the boxyBSD site so you can ask nicely for a VM and learn to play with one of the *BSD flavours from a distance.

I'm sure you can duckduckgo the address of boxyBSD when you analyze the screencaps, right?

It has arrived. proxyLB v1.1.0 the loadbalancer for proxmox clusters. Instead of telling you the features of this major version I invite you to read about it yourself, download proxyLB then play with it.

As with any great Open Source project, this has grown out of a necessity that @gyptazy has for his other amazing project boxyBSD, which just needs a versatile tool like this.

Now go and play.

I upgraded my rust OpenBSD machine to current so I could get 1.85 and now
when 7.7 comes I will try to get back on to the release track.
(Mostly because I think that will make rust-openssl be more stable for me.)

I have never gone from snapshot to release.
I think it is supposed to work if I wait until 7.7 is out, and then
run:

sysupgrade -R 7.7 # or even just sysupgrade
I think i have to be careful to NOT upgrade any snapshot in
the meantime, because if I jump past 7.7 then it's too late.
or something like that :)

OpenBSD is fantastic and I'm just ruminating and not worried
about it. Worst case I can install a fresh system and update
my personal stuff on top of that all pretty quickly and painlessly.
(fastly and funfully)
