we need to educate the masses on the beauty of CGI websites and that not everything has to be PHP

@rose @fiore i honestly forgot gentoo bsd existed but honestly yea thatd go hard as fuck lmao
really my main thing with openbsd is just that networking tooling is really well designed and it handles wpa authentication properly unlike literally every other open source operating system which all rely on FUCKING WPA SUPPLICANT I HATE THAT FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT SOFTWARE OH MY GOD

@fiore @rose i wanna make an sel4 distro someday. thatd be the dream. just gotta get s6-rc to run and figure out how the fuck you make a multi user operating system and uh... i dont know how to make a unix would you believe that
i will say im unsure about execline. ska makes some ok points in its favor but its just a pain to write scripts with it and id rather use a minimalist scheme implementation or smth

@fiore @rose they were actually looking into porting hurd to l4 (instead of gnu mach) in the mid 2000s but then someone suggested the coyotos kernel instead and they looked into that but decided against it by which time l4 progress had stalled
its a shame because honestly architecturally hurd is interesting actually i just dont like the gnu project

@fiore @coolbean @tisanae @rose adj
https://man.9front.org/1/fortune
NAME
fortune, theo, troll - sample lines from a file
SYNOPSIS
fortune [ file ]
theo
troll
DESCRIPTION
Fortune prints a one-line aphorism chosen at random. If a
file is specified, the saying is taken from that file; oth-
erwise it is selected from /sys/games/lib/fortunes.
Troll is more specific than fortune; it specializes in
inflammatory rhetoric.
Theo is more specific than troll; it presents insults from
OpenBSD founder Theo de Raadt.

@aeweyrose @fiore @tisanae @rose the fact theo and troll arent in the openbsd games set is legitimately infuriating. WE EARNED THIS GIVE IT TO ME

@SRAZKVT @Misofist @rose @lunareclipse @navi I think it makes sense for the two to be separated, specially as "check if path exist" has to be something where you get a file descriptor to avoid TOCTOU issues afterwards.
And reminds me that what I'd more want in modern languages is types for a path query (stuff like ../ goes there, maybe also globbing), a path (relative or absolute), and a filename.

i wish posix would add RESOLVE_IN_ROOT and RESOLVE_BENEATH (from linux's openat2) as flags to openat (i honestly i have no idea why linux *didn't* make them O_* flags and instead gave it an extra field in a new syscall)
those would make so useful for a bunch of things, one of them making `../` path traversal impossible

@navi @rose @SRAZKVT Interestingly I feel like I've seen that one before in a POSIX meeting (so in the last 12+ months) but might be misremembering as I can't find it in the bugtracker.
Might be worth it to look at what other implementations have, maybe they did it with an O_* flag which would likely be easier to standardize.

"javascript has frameworks that work via http" is valid to say
