As soon as I got confirmation that my presentation was accepted at #BSDCan, I started following Ottawa's weather forecasts from #FediMeteo. It was still cold then, and the temperatures looked frigid! Even though I've been back home for a while now, I still keep an eye on the forecasts. That city and the whole #BSDCan experience left such a positive and beautiful impression on me.
So, every time I get a notification and see the forecast, I relive a bit of those moments.

Here’s a little writeup about fun times at BSDCan 2025

Yes, I’m using Stefano’s BSSG :)

I cleaned a few things up on my compositor and wrote up install instructions for #OpenBSD if anyone was curious after my #BSDCan talk:

If you do try to get it working, let me know. If you are an international user and want the keyboard layout to be configurable, then especially let me know; that will jump that to top priority. (And writing that sentence might get it updated this week, anyway.)

YOU!

The @bsdtv BSD A/V Team in conjunction with @bsdcan and @EuroBSDCon could use YOUR HELP with:

1. Locating official project slide templates
2. Validating them for readability on a projector and for the visually limited (I hear there are fonts that are dyslexia-friendy)
3. Integrating best practices into semi-official event slides for those presenters who simply want "insert content here"
No, I did not say required.

Thank you!

I'm not sure why, but I'm suddenly craving that delicious BSDCan cake!
(Unfortunately, I don't have photo of it)

I was reflecting on how great was #BSDCan

Apparently the first "Beastie" (never named as such by Kirk) was drawn by the artist for https://www.girlgeniusonline.com Phil Foglio

I learned this at the BSDCan 2025 talk Kirk gave!

Some insights how my BoxyBSD project for the BSD Community boosted the Proxmox ecosystem and let me create several tools that were simply missing.

"Where have you been for the last 20 years?" - The question that changed everything. This isn't a BSDCan report, but a personal reflection on how impostor syndrome stole decades from me, and why it's never too late to find your community and live life fully.

I'm already missing #BSDCan

Recovering from #bsdcan.

That makes today a five on the open-ended Richter scale. Turn it up...

Awesome time as always
Thank you to all the #bsdcan organizers and attendees. Au revoir

Leaving #bsdcan always feels like this.
