LiveUSB-OpenBSD.
It is trivial to a create a bootable USB stick with OpenBSD. I wanted to create one and realized that this will be of general use for anyone who likes a UNIX USB memory stick that they can carry with them on a keychain.
These LiveUSB images are based on 7.0 release of OpenBSD made on Oct 14,2021. Note that these are volunteer effort and strictly unofficial.

Running the Searx metasearch engine on OpenBSD.
Searx is a free metasearch engine. This means that it will aggregate search results from several search engines, like Bing, DuckDuckGo, Google or Qwant. But it will also use search engines from services like DailyMotion, DeviantArt, FramaLibre, GitHub, Reddit or Wikipedia to extract search results.

Running OpenBSD 7.0 on your laptop is really hard (not).
Instructions on this page will provide a nice xfce4 based desktop. I'm using it on a Thinkpad X220 with a 480Gb SSD and 8Gb RAM. The example command results and links are still pointing to 6.8/6.9 at present. I'll update these in a week or two...

SecBSD
Open source volunteer project to develop security focused UNIX-like operating system based upon OpenBSD for security researchers, pentesters, bug hunters, cybersecurity folks, hacktivists and paranoid dudes. Inside, the development process follows the same philosophy as OpenBSD, we believes in strong security, privacy and cryptography by default.

📺 The OpenBSD hypervisor in the wild, a short story, but getting longer. (Dutch)
In the Summer of 2018 —after a poll on Twitter— OpenBSD Amsterdam started testing with vmm(4)/vmd(8). Mostly to see how far we could take it; more importantly to give back to the project. Little did we know where it would take us. During this talk, Mischa will outline how it all started, how it’s built, how we operate the platform, what speedbumps we encountered and where we are now.

What are the VPN available on OpenBSD.
I wanted to write this text for some time, a list of VPN with encryption that can be used on OpenBSD. I really don't plan to write about all of them but I thought it was important to show the choices available when you want to create a VPN between two peers/sites.

OpenSMTPD on the Local Network.
One of the many great things about OpenBSD is that it comes with OpenSMTPD by default, allowing my servers to communicate with themselves and each other via the SMTP protocol. This is used to send insecurity reports, failed cron jobs, et cetera to various users on the system. However, I don’t want to have to check each machine’s mail spool to see if there are any messages I need to act upon. I’d much rather have a central mail server to collect all these messages so that I have a single place to check...
