    The Billboard just got a hallway track. We've added a Conferences section with dedicated subcategories for the three major BSD conferences: EuroBSDCon, BSDCan, and AsiaBSDCon. Whether you're preparing a talk proposal, looking for travel tips, writing a trip report, or trying to figure out who's going this year - now there's a place for that conversation to live longer than a Fediverse thread. More conferences may be added over time based on community interest. If you think something is missing, let us know.

  • The main counter - pair your favorite BSD with good conversation.

    As it should be. I'm following 15-STABLE on my workstation, without any issues to speak of.

  • Where the sun never sets.
    Discussion on illumos-based operating systems and their ecosystems.

    Welcome to anyone running or interested in running Tribblix! Yes, it's a hobby project, but it's built to my standards which I hope are good enough to make it useful. It would be nice to know what sorts of things people might be using Tribblix for, and what other people consider its strengths and weaknesses. (After all, it's perfect for me, by definition.)

  • Where the community meets face to face. Talks, travel tips, and hallway conversations - before, during, and after.

    On a tangent: For the specific task of (what's now called) word processing, there's a mighty fine book showing how the tools on a UNIX system can add up to something greater than the sum of the parts. See https://www.oreilly.com/openbook/utp/

  • Dust off the old hardware. Vintage systems, retrocomputing, and the machines that started it all.

    This is the sandbox. Post, reply, format, break things - nobody will judge you here. Use this category to test federation, try out formatting, see how your Fediverse account interacts with the Billboard, or just press buttons to see what happens. Nothing here is permanent, nothing here is serious, and if something catches fire, that's kind of the point. Have fun. Just don't test in production.

  • Got a question? Ask away!
