Aug 15, 2026, 4:10 PMInstalling #FreeBSD on my new laptop to escape the massive #AI and bloat madness of #Linux. Opened the terminal and it is a real Unix, all my favorite tools and utilities are there from decades ago. Nothing has been "depreciated" or "Unix is dead" that #Redhat and their #systemD were constantly gaslighting about.
It's all there, even CDE/Motif, xv, oclock, xeyes, finger, ...
Since this is a new laptop with new GPU and all that, I am having to do some scraping from a Linux distribution to get Xorg working. Even GhostBSD didn't have all the new drivers yet. But this is Unix and the included documentation and build tools are amazing. Shame that the Linux Foundation is heavily invested by the AI goons. But this is a win for me😸
