"Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light."

We all who despise the unmitigated use of these spambots are wasting our breath
Noam. You can't stop the uneducated, the imbeciles, and incompetents from being
lured into the magical domain of infinite "knowledge" OpenAI and their ilk
peddle to the consumtariat. Many have never learned _how_ to learn in the first
place and turn to "AI" because it's all they're capable of; separating the chaff
from the wheat obviously requires actual knowledge which defeats the purpose of
the all-knowing magic box.

Don't stop fighting the good fight, but perhaps choose the battles where you can
hit them upside the head with a properly sized Clue-by-4.

Re: [9fans] List of companies that use Plan 9.

2024-05-14 Thread B. Atticus Grobe
Oh, I think it's great that people are using it. I simply find the
obfuscatory nature of your presentation to be suspicious. It is generally
considered to be good etiquette to disclose affiliations to a company
during discussions. Failure to do so is not necessarily damning, but is
certainly a 'red flag', at least for me.

As for companies that use 9, Coraid (Brantley Coile) was invested in 9 for
their network storage systems, although it's possible their newer products
don't utilize it. He is responsible for vblade(8) and I believe also for
the kernel AoE driver. (I haven't verified the origin of the kernel driver;
corrections welcome.)

Taking the time to go through that, it's literally just you; your LLC.
Interesting the you didn't feel the need for transparency and simply say
'this is my company.'

This certainly fails to inspire even the least bit of confidence in me.

Re: [9fans] 9legacy under OpenBSD's vmm

2022-01-24 Thread B. Atticus Grobe
David,
How do your drivers handle a virtio-based CD-ROM?
qemu by default uses IDE, or can be configured to use SATA CD-ROM devices, 
however, OpenBSD's vmd(8) strictly uses a virtio-based CD-ROM.

I don't know how the interactions end up differing between hard drive and 
CD-ROM access in that case, but its something to look at if you weren't aware 
of it.

>From OpenBSD 6.9 booted using vmd(8) on OpenBSD 7.0.
