Trying OpenIndiana Hipster On The Core i9 7900X
Following the Linux and BSD multi-threaded tests on the Intel Core i9 7900X, I next decided to try this system with the Solaris-based OpenIndiana. Sadly, it didn't end well.
With various BSDs working fine on the Core i9 7900X box paired with the NVMe storage, MSI X299 SLI PLUS motherboard, etc, I figured OpenIndiana would play fine. Sadly, I was wrong.

Bitrig: The Short-Lived OpenBSD Fork
Bitrig, the operating system that forked OpenBSD back in 2012, is no longer being developed.
Bitrig saw its initial release in 2014 but it's been relatively quiet since. In fact, pretty much forgotten on my end until seeing an LLVM commit this week mentioning Bitrig is dead and has been merged back into OpenBSD.
Further showing the project is no more is the GitHub project area showing no more work since 2016.
