Yes, and then your main kernel image is no longer on ZFS and you lose the ability to reliably roll back your root dataset. Everything is a trade off. I reboot my workstation once a week for a kernel upgrade, so an extra 2 seconds of boot ti

It's nice to see more people embracing the capabilities of UEFI and Linux. ZFSBootMenu has been shipping an EFI application (really, a UKI masquerading as one) for almost four years now - https://docs.zfsbootmenu.org/en

It'd be doable, but not with out a whole lot of hacking on it. The internals of ZFSBootMenu are tied very tightly to ZFS. Though at that point you'd largely be reimplementing https://github.com/open-power/peti

It makes the conclusion unsupported. I don't know this area very well, but speaking for myself, I'm happy to ignore your argument from authority and give more weight to the author engaging in good faith.

When asked, by the author, to cite specifics, you're instead claiming something isn't "useful in prod" based on an impression you formed years ago while reading blog posts.

Both of the examples given in the "avoid subshells" section use subshells. There are probably more problems, but I stopped there.

My wife and I had a 'starter house' built in 2009, and paid it off in 2019. We've talked about moving out of the area, or into a house with a different layout / finishes / whatever. I'm not sure that's goi

I originally wrote ZFSBootMenu as a reaction to how awful Grub is. I was hacking on the Grub scripts and hitting all sorts of limitations that were just awful to work around (or not possible at all). I used Grub to chain load early versions

I can't quite see which Thinkcentre's those are, but the M920x can fit a 10GbE PCIe NIC in it and provide it enough power. I have one on my desk with 2x2TB NVMe, 32GB RAM and a 10GbE fiber connection to it.

What is your argument for why it's not ready for prime time?

Good. While Wayland isn't without issues, there are at least developers working on the core set of protocols and applications/libraries.

I've found that a social connection helps motivate me to work on hobbies/projects. If I start talking with people on IRC about projects, I'll start poking at code and share screenshots / diffs of what I'm working on

It's disingenuous to say that /sbin/init (machined/main.go) is less than 400 lines of code. Sure, that file is. What about all of the in-tree modules that are being imported? A super lazy summing of Go lines in the maste

The last time I looked at Slashdot comments (2021, give or take) they were low-effort trolls, racist/sexist, or just gibberish. Has moderation improved there or is it still a cesspool?

I don't often get the chance to talk to people that work on software I've used every day for years and years - so thank you for all of your work on XFCE. It's a fantastic project that 'just works'.

A few major items were pain points for me: * Firefox didn't have a Javascript JIT. That made using Grafana, GCP Console, etc, basically impossible in my browser of choice. * Closed source Electron applications (Teams, Slack, etc) weren

It's simply too expensive. People that want to play around with a non-x86_64 system can buy one of a thousand different ARM devices and get all sorts of software running on it. If you want POWER, you're buying old datacenter gear

I went from a (heavy) steel gravel bike running 700x42mm tires to a carbon fiber bike (frame, fork, stem, bars, wheels) with 700x38mm tires. There's such a vast difference in comfort on gravel roads that it's difficult to fully qu
