Having spent days making PkgBase easy on #FreeBSD…

The (highly opinionated) Sum Total of computer history:

0. BSD Unix
1. Macintosh
2. Packaged Base in Red Hat 5.2
3. Squiggly underline spell check
4. FreeBSD Jail to manage the fustercluck that are RPMs on Red Hat
5. Two-finger scrolling
6. Hardware-assisted virtualization
7. ZFS v28
8. NVMe

TCP/IP is taken for granted, as it is not vendor/platform-specific.

Flat screen displays are a TV crossover technology, as are WiFi, GPS, and fancy batteries.
