kcbark.net now runs over HTTP/2!
What is HTTP/2 you ask?
From https://tools.keycdn.com/http2-test:
HTTP/2 is the first major HTTP protocol update since 1997 when HTTP/1.1 was first published by the IETF. The new HTTP protocol is needed to keep up with the exponential growth of the web. The successor of HTTP/1.1 brings significant improvement in efficiency, speed and security and is supported by most modern web browsers. A list of browsers that support HTTP/2 can be found on caniuse.

pkg(8)'ing FreeBSD base!
Worked out fine. There is a few packages though..
pkg info 'FreeBSD-*' | wc -l 296 I have uploaded the packages on pkg.kcbark.net.
Just add the following to your pkg repo configuration
echo 'FreeBSD-base: { url: "https://pkg.kcbark.net/base/${ABI}/latest", mirror_type: "https", enabled: yes }' >> /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/kcbark.conf And run
pkg update -r FreeBSD-base The repository includes kernels for Lenovo Thinkpad T430 (2349U2B) and Lenovo X1 Carbon Gen3 (20BTS00R00). If you have a X1 Carbon then add kernel=kernel.
