@dfr thanks. I'd like to take a deeper dive in at some point. I do see that there's a new unofficial repository listed on the wiki https://wiki.freebsd.org/PkgBase but haven't looked into changing your build infra to use that one instead

find: /zboot/iocage/jails/pkgbase/root/usr/obj/build/src/main/repo/FreeBSD:14:amd64/latest/: No such file or directory
Not sure where to go from here

@dfr what's the current status on the project? I tried to build a container on top of quay.io/dougrabson/freebsd-minimal:13.2 but pkg tries to fetch something from https://alpha.pkgbase.live/release/13.2/FreeBSD:13:aarch64/latest/meta.conf which times out
@dfr Poked around podman on FreeBSD, thanks for your work on buildah and podman to enable this

@Migueldeicaza only to discover a cartel fixating prices and charging a premium to create scarcity to further increase prices. Meanwhile, Brazilian products in Argentina were sold much below their value.
Fuck Elon to hell
"UAW's Twitter verification stripped amid strikes
The UAW’s Twitter account was stripped of its blue verification check shortly after the the UAW strikes began, a UAW official told the Intercept.
According to the official, the UAW’s verified account, which the union paid for, was verified until Friday morning when the blue verification check was no longer there.
A screenshot of the UAW’s Twitter account showed the missing blue icon next to UAW’s Twitter handle."
@darwinwoodka the ruling class usually is a lot more subtle when it comes to consent manufacturing.
@phillypowerresearch the charter schools did about the same or worse so now it's time to get rid of the fiction that it was about better schools and just leave the ideology that the state doing education is wrong
@phillypowerresearch shows you how much "democracy" we really have in the United States
Towamencin Township #Pennsylvania supervisors are moving forward with their effort to sell off the township's sewer system, despite a ballot referendum where 61% of voters favored rewriting the township charter to prevent #privatization
