We are pleased to announce the official release of OpenBSD 6.8.

Some esoteric gems this week. Derek Muller’s video on Penrose Tilings. One of those useful patterns to name, like Markov chains. B3 Biennale – Panel on computer game history of the Eastern Bloc. Something to think about: the longest-running computer ever built is also the farthest away. FTP Fadeout. SAILDART, an e-book. Stanford Artificial Intelligence …
This list of links runs in the same order of the BSD RSS feeds in my reader. What a coincidence! pkgsrc-2020Q3 released.

This week’s BSD Now has the usual roundup, with I think the highlight being a discussion of how SSDs can sometimes still not be fast enough for a ZFS scrub, depending on how it’s scheduled.
The ChiBUG monthly meeting has gone virtual, so go now if you are interested. The thread about it also includes some notes on how to connect under BSD that may be useful beyond this immediate event.
