just a simple OpenBSD appreciator

Desktop streaming on #OpenBSD using VAAPI is quite performant. I've recorded myself playing Northgard in 1440p, using fauxstream. The hardware encoding quality on this generation of Radeon GPUs (RX 6700 XT in my case) is known to be of poor quality, so there is noticeable loss of detail when panning over the map, but it seems to be quite smooth otherwise and audio/video stay in sync.

The Game of Trees Hub is now hosting an #OpenBSD #Git repository mirror:

https://openbsd.gothub.org

The repositories available on our mirror contain the same data as already available at the openbsd accounts on Codeberg and Github but we do not rely on these other sites for updates. Repository updates are regularly being pushed to us directly from Canada.

When you are ready, you won't need the FAQ.

This little sketchbook drawing is to celebrate my successful completion of setting up OpenBSD as a gateway, DNS host, NAT router, and packet filter with pf. I'm working slowly and making sure I understand each step. Very happy with it so far.

#openBsd #pf

A giant golden puffer fish with an enormous open mouth acts as a gateway for a highway traveled by green blobs. It represents OpenBSD's Puffy mascot filtering packets with the pf packet filter.
