I remember building and applying patches to OpenBSD in the 5.x era. Now with syspatch, it's crazy easy to keep your base system up to date.

Not only is Syncthing available for OpenBSD, but you can install it with pkg_add https://syncthing.net

OMG, I'm already using Syncthing. I just downloaded and started running it. I didn't think it would be so easy. https://syncthing.net/

I'd love to get rid of Disqus. I just changed my ad "preferences" so only one ad is showing, not a ton of them. I don't begrudge Disqus making money, and I'd almost rather pay to make the ads go away, but I would prefer comments to be "native" to my blogging platform.

Does blogPoster work in OpenBSD? If you see this post, the answer is yes.

It's been years, but I forgot that OpenBSD doesn't support the Atheros 9485 WiFi chipset. They didn't then (circa 2012/14), they don't now (2019).

I didn't realize that merging git branches locally and on GitHub are two different things. The same is true for deleting branches. It's confusing, but I'm figuring it out. https://github.com/passthejoe/blogPoster
