Oldest supported machine for NetBSD is VAX 780 from 1978(!!!). One of the first system supporting mmu, 32 bit cpu, virtual memory etc etc
This machine is so slow that it takes a lot of time to generate ssh keys etc. We talking here hours hehe
NetBSD is known to support like 60 architectures - many of them low end embedded systems: so ftp AS A CHOICE (you have other options!) is very smart and easy
I think GP is confused why the ftp command also handles http(s) :)
I hate to imagine what a 780 running NetBSD would be like, too.
I tried netbooting NetBSD on my MicroVAX 3400, which is about 2.5x the performance of the 780. It did, literally, take 6+ hours to slog through making RSA keys.

Exactly - I even suspected for a second that `ftp` on NetBSD is something else entirely, not an actual FTP client with HTTP/HTTPS URLs bolted on. It's not - it still accepts a host as an argument and opens a CLI if there's an FTP server to talk to.
Lavapipe is CPU rendering, it doesn't really prove much. But also, Vulkan on BSDs is totally possible and isn't something esoteric, FreeBSD has it.
> Build goal only: This targets compilation and linkage of the Vulkan stack. Runtime GPU acceleration is not available under VirtualBox; the software driver (Lavapipe) is the target.
I don't understand why this would ever be a problem, even without LLM assistance it's something that sounds like a weekend project?
Interesting choice. I wonder what led to it.

looks inside:

This looks like an unofficial effort but hopefully it gets refined and integrated.
