Oh, I followed those instructions well, and you would know the real problem if you read the entire thread (assuming you're talking about the DD issue), I used DD dozens if not hundreds of times, I was just not being careful, that's all.. It was the right drive before I unplug it and plugged a different drive, then plugged back in the original drive (the one I fucked up).. What do you mean with a /usr/sys? Nothing is wrong there, I just didn't expect src.tar.gz and CVS's src/ to be different... no one would unless they've read the most relatable of man pages (probably file sets related) and remember everything perfectly.. all I had to do is move my /usr/sys to /usr/src/sys, no big issue there. A lot of things in OpenBSD work on assumption that the user knows a few too many things, it's not nobrain-friendly, it requires mediocre brain usage, compared to some other OS manual pages (not in their entirety, every OS has it's own flaw) Well if the 50 years of history still can't explain me how they can't handle the differential between datetime of object files, and thus verify the object file is/isn't outdated and thus wether or not the source file needs a recompile, then I don't know what to tell you... Someone mentioned /usr/lib or something like that, but I don't think that really changes anything, as long as the machine isn't SERIOUSLY fucked up when it comes to datetime, it should work even if shit is on another fucking continent on someone else's computer Am I missing something? Then tell me Am I onto something? Then stop being butthurt about it xD Am I a little annoying? Cmon it would be boring without that, just admit it, why be so serious all the time For example CVS repository don't get verified because "that's how it worked for decades and from the start it wasn't made to be verifiable because no one thought anyone would ever do anything malicious" (as far as someone on the mailing list told me and that's how I understood it), you're telling me that it's okay to have that? Hello? Are we just assuming that mirrors are trust-worthy? I trusted my own fucking family and they ruined my life, I'm not trusting fucking mirrors, and no one should, do you understand me? I'm only trusting openbsd.org and that's it (which also shouldn't be trusted, but oh well) There are many things that your "50 years of history firmly established" project is missing, and you aren't seeing it because as far as I see, the following goes for you: Like I said, I consider most of you normal people until proven wrong, and normal people even if they have 50 years of programming experience are still missing an important factor which is critical thinking, in other to become superoir and be a standalone responsible developer Programmers have superior critical thinking than non-programmers, but normal programmers are inferior to programmers which excell in critical thinking and/or have autism.
