    This was the website that pfsense maintainers made as soon as OPNsense was announced. They sniped the name, derided the project and only ended up handing over the domain after they were legally compelled to.

    One person affiliated with Netgate in particular can be seen around forums and social media and has serious axes to grind. He's.... not pleasant.

    Add to that Netgate's practices (IIRC secret proprietary blob required to build pfsense, double-check that fact / unremovable installation tracking) and the picture painted is one of petulance and anger.

    [edit] oh yeah, and this gem! https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2021/03/buffer-overruns-license-violations-and-bad-code-freebsd-13s-close-call/

  • If you are going to write, say, fantasy - stop reading fantasy. You've already read too much. Read other things; read westerns, read history, read anything that seems interesting, because if you only read fantasy and then you start to write fantasy, all you're going to do is recycle the same old stuff and move it around a bit.

  • Either word works. It's hyper-specific but I would say that most people would say "rung" in reference to the physical part of the ladder while "step" would be the part of the ladder they were on.

    Again, either word works fine and nobody would bat an eye if either were used.

    Good question!
