I'm thrilled to announce that my talk for EuroBSDcon 2024 has been accepted! I am incredibly happy and honored. It will be a fantastic experience. Thank you to the team for your trust!
A couple of years ago, I posted a bit about "Dexter", my little project to run a Raspberry Pi 1 as a little general purpose, old-school Unix system - as even its extremely low specs were pretty high by, say, 1980s standards.
I decided to pause that until NetBSD 10 released, a thing that I expected would be a lot sooner than it actually was!
Anyway, Dexter is back in the box, and now has a real enough serial port to run with a VT220 terminal as the primary console, no more USB keyboard or HDMI cables hanging off it!
"There’s a multitude of Operating Systems to choose from. You may have been using something like Windows or MacOS and be perfectly happy with it. You can step up and use Linux, Haiku or even Amiga OS. So, why do I think a BSD system may be a great choice?"
Do you do anything interesting with any of the *BSDs :flan_hacker: ? If so, please consider giving a talk at EuroBSDCon, which is held in Dublin, September 19-22. More info on submitting your paper can be found here.

OpenBSD: Relentlessly security & correctness focused. Theo is an asshole who's usually/always right.
FreeBSD: Comes with most of the nice amenities of a user-friendly UNIX. Fantastic documentation. Friendly community. Dragonfly, etc. have even more desktop stuff configured.
