Care and Feeding

"There are 10715 packages for amd64 in snapshots"

"There aren't even 100 OpenBSD porters"

So that means that for every porter, there are more than 100 ports
sitting out there.

Thats. Not. OK.

Thats. Not. The. Only. Arch.


I've got recent port videos/etc. open in Firefox tabs.
I've got the Porters Handbook open in a tab, too.

I'm going to watch and read those.
Going to, not did. Watched some stupid music videos instead.

Ports have to be done on -current.
OK. That was hard (sorta). Now there is sysupgrade. I've seen some
criticism of it. But I had to have it. So I upgraded to -current.
Worth it! Do it!

6.6 release is coming soon. It has it. But why wait? Release and -stable
are not -current. Never will be or were.

My junky laptop is amd64. Junky server is i386.
Junky is cheap. Sysupgrade is easy.

Don't be stupid and lazy like me.

Port something. Update something. Test something.
