We read FreeBSD’s 3rd quarter status report, OpenZFS 2.0, adding check-hash checks in UFS filesystem, OpenSSL 3.0 /dev/crypto issues on FreeBSD, and more. NOTES This episode of BSDNow is brought to you by Tarsnap (https://www.tarsnap.com/bsdnow) Headlines 3rd Quarter FreeBSD Report (https://www.freebsd.org/news/status/report-2020-07-2020-09.html) The call for submissions for the 4th Quarter is out (https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-quarterly-calls/2020/000007.html) OpenZFS 2.0 (https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2020/12/openzfs-2-0-release-unifies-linux-bsd-and-adds-tons-of-new-features/) This Monday, ZFS on Linux lead developer Brian Behlendorf published the OpenZFS 2.0.0 release to GitHub. Along with quite a lot of new features, the announcement brings an end to the former distinction between "ZFS on Linux" and ZFS elsewhere (for example, on FreeBSD). This move has been a long time coming—the FreeBSD community laid out its side of the roadmap two years ago—but this is the release that makes it official. News Roundup Revision 367034 (https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/367034) Various new check-hash checks have been added to the UFS filesystem over various major releases. Superblock check hashes were added for the 12 release and cylinder-group and inode check hashes will appear in the 13 release. OpenSSL 3.0 /dev/crypto issues on FreeBSD (https://rubenerd.com/openssl-3-written-to-break-on-freebsd/) So, just learned that the OpenSSL devs decided to break /dev/crypto on FreeBSD.

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
