Wifi does work on the Pi 4 with Fedora 37. I tried that just a few hours ago.

This is all rather tasteful. Making a fuss would be registering a domain name and making a whole freaking website just for the bug.

sigjuiceon Memtest86 v6.00 with UEFI support released

Is there potential for UEFI-based aarch64 systems? Or is the code too specific to x86?

sigjuiceon How to Use Sshfs on OpenBSD

Great info. But this best belongs in a man page (or some other relevant document) in sysutils/sshfs-fuse, considering OpenBSD’s reputation for high quality documentation.

sigjuiceon Start all of your commands with a comma (2009)

If it is any consolation, I can't make any sense of this.

  $ <xyz.txt wc -l
         8
  
  $ <xyz.txt | wc -l
         0

sigjuiceon The Apple M1, ARM/x86 Linux Virtualization, and Boinc (2021)

I should have been clear in my original comment that I was referring to virtualization, i.e. ARM Linux guests.

sigjuiceon The Apple M1, ARM/x86 Linux Virtualization, and Boinc (2021)

Things have improved a lot since this article was written. Running Linux VMs on an M1 Mac is easier than ever. Homebrew Qemu and UTM work out of the box. UTM also supports bridged networking. I haven’t had a chance to try it myself, but I believe libvirt also works now without doing anything special.
