haha nice to know that, I am flashing an USB to install FreeBSD on my tower (first time I decide to use FreeBSD) =)
./pascal.sh
I just setup freeradius on my opnsense firewall and now my unifi access points can authenticate via WPA2 enterprise My WiFi is now a thousand times more secure

FreeBSD remembered me to the following cartoon https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3X6il751f6I

Why? 😂

there's a very cool picture of FreeBSD initial days

Nice I am not that familiar with the history of freebsd but as far as I know its a direct successor to Unix

I trust you. I am not also. But AFAIK, FreeBSD is what I want to btw, from now until whom knows =) I am going to test it by first time on my personal computer as main OS. But, nothing is perfect; probably I could be able to send some code implementations, or fixes... I also like to code in C.

thank you so much
./pascal.sh
If you want to use freebsd as a desktop os you have to setup a few things I wrote a blog sometime ago maybe it will help you https://freebsd81949087.wordpress.com/
This is mostly for laptop things like WiFi and suspend but also stuff like sound, microcode updates or even how to Mount linux filesystems

allright, brb I am going to install 😉

Maybe I continue writing on that block as soon as I have my freebsd server running

CPU's Level 2 + 3 caches are crucial for performance. If you compare current AMD CPUs with Intel's you'll notice, AMD is fitting their products with a huge abundant amounts of cache (32, even 64MB(!) on prosumer chips). This should bring you far into the future, while surfing, producing/consuming multimedia and so forth. This is my strongest selling point for AMD, while INTEL is still leader in power/performance efficiency - at least in broad comparisons of dozens of CPU classes...

Those came with 8 - 12MB L3 AFAIK. And they proof, what I was pointing out. Running one L5640 Xeon with 12MB - which is PERFECT in terms of energy efficiency for daily internet/office tasks (Gaming needed 1-2GHz higher clockspeeds, though...)
Anonymous
In general you could say: take the cheapest office CPU (2 or 4 cores) and you'll go 3-5years with it. Double or triple their L2/L3 caches and you are very well prepared for at least a decade of smooth computing, before things get noticably slow-moving

Only question remaining: how well is FreeBSD doing on AMD's Ryzens!? (no experience, so far...)

Anybody using FreeBSD 13 without issues?

There is freebsd 13?

using ryzen cpus on my laptop and desktop with freebsd 12.1 and they work like a charm, highly suggested

As a frequent PCBSD- / TrueOS- / Trident-User I had the joy to run across 'FreeBSD CURRENT' branches several times over the past few years. For me personally, it ended always switching back to the 'STABLE'-branch very quickly, due to a variety of imperfections and glitches. If you are a contributor/programmer CURRENT may work well for you... Of course those minor issues might multiply only, when running a desktop environment. In a shell environment things may probably look very different - here: better.

Thx for that information. Several years ago, I tried PCBSD on AMD CPUs with alternating experiences. Sometimes the installers just wouldn't work (kernel panics).

definitely! 😊
my plan is to switch from Linux to BSD; maybe dual boot Linux and FreeBSD

If you have 2 or more disks that will be fine. I'd always give BSD a whole disk, if possible. Especially, when you love zfs, as I do.

On my main lap HP I've got two disks ; 1st 500GB SSD , 2nd 1TB SSD; on my spare Dell lap , "only"! 1 TB SSD atm Artix Linux

In that case I'd put BSD on the 500GB SSD an leave Linux on the bigger HDD. My experience is, it is VERY hard to leave behind what you know/liked before. Fallback is common...

Especially because BSD is so different from linux and Linux behaves on laptops better most of the time. At least in terms of suspending and stuff like that
Anonymous
Once you know, it works you could replace Linux on the 2nd hard drive by turning that one into a zfs mirror or - as an intermediary step - you upgrade your 500GB ssd into sth bigger before creating a zfs mirror system

I'm not that much into laptops. But your words describe exactly my experiences, when I compared Linux/BSDs in the past.

Yup but i was on 11.2 and now since 12 is stable i think support for laptops and gpus in general has gotten much better the most problems i had on 11.1/11.2 was with my intel skylake gpu i had to use drm-next-kmod to even put it to work
Eliab/Andi
What would u recommend for my spare dell? 1TB Linux atm full
./pascal.sh
Unix runs best on well-known hardware (>3-5 yrs of age seems to be a good rule of thumb)
yes the older the hardware the better it runs in most cases

Well, 500GB FreeBSD? Last time I had some driver issues with AMD Ryzen 5 3500U ; 1TB atm is WIn10 :D
Check out GhostBSD with Mate Desktop. It is easy to install and also works like a charm.

oh yes ; GhostBSD is really nice ; there I had no issues with my AMD card

I run Freebsd with KDE-Desktop and a GhostBSD on another machine. Compared to GhostBSD my beloved FreeBSD/KDE-workstation was an awful lot more work until it was up and running properly.
./pascal.sh

Isn't ghostbsd just freebsd with the mate desktop and a custom theme ?
