@mirabilos ah, thanks

@mirabilos eh, yeah, meant /etc/tty. Yeah, I know BSDs slightly differ, hence my question. The plan would be to read that - > check if /dev/ttyFOO exists - > then create a symlink for the getty service

Question for the #BSD community:

Am I correct in assuming on boot, /etc/tty is read and then init spawns serials consoles if the corresponding serial console exists under /dev?

Context is https://github.com/OpenRC/openrc/issues/1039

Thoughts/comments would be appreciated.
Also would be interested if anyone runs a #BSD with OpenRC.

@kpcyrd thanks!

@anarchiv reading theory is easier than doing actual politics. Maybe that's why the revolution is not happening?

I proudly present: Basic Debian-style #openRC network init is working. Gentoos' openrc uses a more BSD-like networking; thus, some changes were needed.

Still needs some polish, but the interfaces are started correctly now.
Next step is integration with resolvconf, and more testing. Still pretty satisfied, since this was one of the major blockers.

Hello Fedi #electronics bubble. Does anyone know of any #Displayport MST IC that is available for non-commercial purposes? I know Synaptics and Kinetic Technology produce some, but those aren't some you can't just buy.

@fabos no?

@fabos no, those are my screwdrivers

This needs to be said in a loop until it sticks.

"What people are not getting is that we can’t turn this back – the CO2 to a large part remains in the air for thousands of years,” said Rahmstorf. “Some people think we can wait and, when it gets too bad, then we reduce emissions and things will get better again. People don’t realise that we can’t make it get better again. We can only prevent it from getting much worse.”

@josch @Akirakio nice, reminds when I worked at a place where we also took care of hedgehogs, and fed them cat food.

@anarchiv they literally did that to deter from the two-state solution and to discredit the palestinian autonomous gouvernment
