If You want to stick with Windows 10 that seems less broken then Windows 11 - there is Windows 10 LTSC IoT edition that will get security updates up to 2029. The bad thing is that it will really download and install these updates and will require reboot :)

The zsdt(1) especially with -19 level is VERY efficient. From 13 MB to 114 KB. Greatest thing about ZSTD? Decompression speed is similar no matter which level You used to compress.

But there is always that big Enigma for me ... WHY NopeVidia will not bring official CUDA to FreeBSD ... especially as the NopeVidia binary driver is already there ... I write NopeVidia because I will never buy their stuff ... unless they go 'open' AMD/Radeon way.

ROCm full support on FreeBSD will happen sooner or later: www.freebsd.org/status/repor... One can also use OpenCL with AMD GPUs on FreeBSD (Mesa rusticl): spun.io/2026/04/26/o... One can also use Vulkan for that. One can also use CUDA using Linux Compat on FreeBSD.
