Debian is obviously a rock-solid choice for CERN. With their massive software ecosystem and community, it makes total sense why they went that route. But part of me can't help but wonder what a NetBSD-powered Large Hadron Collider would look like! ⚛️

NetBSD’s hardware portability just seems like a perfect match for lab. Plus, using pkgsrc to manage complex scientific software seamlessly across all those different niche architectures would be incredible to see at that scale.

Nothing but respect for the Debian rollout, but a sysadmin can dream! 🚩🚀

@jaypatelani@bsd.network they also run a lot of kubernetes infrastructure, which *bsd is not a fit for that at all.
