I’ve implemented posix_spawn_file_actions_addclosefrom_np for NetBSD, and I’ve even written a test for it using NetBSD’s testing framework! Now to see about actually running that test and writing a man page, so I can submit the patch next week.

@lumi asked:

The six months age difference might be insurmountable.
(Sorry, this is a VERY old-school KDE/GNOME joke. In case folks don't know it: there was this big thing in the first few years of GNOME that KDE had started six months before GNOME, and therefore GNOME could “never catch up”. Almost 30 years later, this is a really silly argument.)

Yet, the federal administration just completed a full Microsoft 365 deployment for 54,000 machines, despite data security concerns and the US Cloud Act.

@mehanix Welcome to Mastidon, Nicoleta! 👋🏼
I hope you settle in well here, and find lots of interesting people. I'm afraid I'm at the opposite end of the continent, here in Dublin - however, one good tip to know about Mastodon is that hashtags are really important for finding people and topics.
For example - #computers #hacking #FOSS #OpenSource #art #music #games
You can then either browse posts, or you have the option to 'follow' the hashtag ao posts appear in your timeline.

Tripo 통합 기능을 저장소에 추가했다는 업데이트입니다. 이전에 공유한 것보다 훨씬 나아졌지만, 상대방의 결과가 더 좋았다고 언급하며 협업을 통해 더 멋진 것을 만들 수 있다고 말합니다. AI 기반 3D/생성 도구 관련 개발 진척으로 보입니다.
