romanzolotarev.com is a Fediverse instance that uses the ActivityPub protocol. In other words, users at this host can communicate with people that use software like Mastodon, Pleroma, Friendica, etc. all around the world.
This server runs the snac software and there is no automatic sign-up process.
Many of you are starting to explore NetBSD, and it's a great idea.
Why don't you also consider to use it for your online presence?

Then on Saturday night at 20, your favourite provider hits you up with an email: 'Ok, syspatch-ed the physical server and rebooted, all good. I'm here if you need anything.
They're truly inimitable.
Thanks, @OpenBSDAms !

Following some naughty (not) remarks from here, I went to another gallery of the #ThinkCentre rabbit hole.
Quick and dirty look at #FreeBSD, #NetBSD and #OpenBSD power usage on the AMD powered M715q.

Hey folks! Are you a BSD aficionado? On Saturday 7 November we will be having a one-day BSD conference in Utrecht, The Netherlands
For those whom don't speak Dutch, no worries - the main language is English
It will be a day full of fun, hacking, a talk or two and if you are up for: beers afterwards, downstairs
Sounds like a good day that you want to join? Well, love to have you over!
You will need to get your ticket before November, due to the lunch orders (vegetarian and vegan options are there!).
Checkout the website, get your ticket and perhaps submit a talk. And don't forget to follow BSD-NL on Mastodon!
See you there!?

I think this is the sign Iβm trying to escape from the current shit Worldβ¦ No-sane-body really needs that many #ThinkCentre, even to #RunBSDβ¦
Hello speakers!
What's happening... I gonna need you to go ahead and submit that abstract.
So if you could do that, that would be great. Okay...
It was great to see everybody again at #EuroBSDCon2026. Sorry if we missed you, but there is always #EuroBSDCon2027! :)
And... #OpenBSD 8.0 is around the corner!
25 new VMs were added and 78 VMs were renewed. π«°
We donated β¬1420 to the #OpenBSD Foundation, β¬71840 since we started.
Thank you, our users, and OpenBSD developers for an awesome OS!
Stay safe, healthy & sane!

Traditional hosting company:
βWe had a Linux crash. Or maybe systemd. Or KVM. Possibly a kernel issue. There is also a non-zero chance aliens interfered with our servers.
Weβre not entirely sure what happened.
Sorry for the inconvenience.β
OpenBSD Amsterdam:
βWe had a crash.
One of the OpenBSD developers looked at it and is now patching OpenBSD so it wonβt happen again.β
Whoβs the boss now? π
Thank you, @OpenBSDAms !
Yesterday, I ran #KDE, #Firefox and #VLC on a #ThinkCentre M710q connected to a 4K monitor using a DP to HDMI dongle.
And it worked pretty decently, up to 1080p H264 video.
Oh, and yes, it was a
#RunBSD moment.
On my way back $HOME from #EuroBSDcon2026. Had a great time, as usual. Seeya next time!
/me and the gift shirt from @paulgatling and @prahou to celebrate https://www.tumfatig.net are ready for my first #EuroBSDcon day.
Letβs

I suspect they want you to come to me and say hello. Which is fine. I can probably handle it :p

We really appreciate the work done on the TLS settings in relayd(8) and httpd(8).
It makes it even easier to get a tried and tested secure connection to your favorite OS and service!
"Both relayd(8) and httpd(8) now have the "secure" list of allowed crypto methods for HTTPS, which include TLSv1.3 and the TLSv1.2 AEAD cipher suites.
The previous list was "HIGH:!aNULL" which contain non-perfect-forward-security methods and this change may cause old clients to not be able to connect."

Hat Tip to @sizeofvoid and others!
OpenBSD 7.9 will be deployed on the hosts as soon as possible!
We want to wait for the first errata to appear.
21 new VMs were added and 61 VMs were renewed.
We donated β¬1125 to the #OpenBSD Foundation, β¬66755 since we started.
Thank you, our users, and OpenBSD developers for an awesome OS!
Stay safe, healthy & sane!
