How could you not mention Magners??? :) That is my number one favorite I've been drinking since the first time I had amazing fish and chips in howth at beeshoffs. Second what reallllly irritates me is the food they serve in these &quot

I'm shocked! Shocked I say! I've seen this coming for a decade. Dealers are practically giving the cars away with near 0% financing. Everything in the financial world has been a race to the bottom for a long time. You can say it s

This is why ECC is important. Many many people poo poo the idea that it's needed. But by not having it you have left a single vital part of the data path unprotected. And ram and disk is cheap, losing your data is not. The risk simply

Oh, well it's ported from Solaris to illumos and FreeBSD and to a lesser extent OS X and Linux. So I'm still confused about the portability claim.

by X86BSD 10y ago
ZFS not portable? Have you ever used it? "ZFS export" on the host system, remove drives, insert drives in new server, "ZFS import" on the new server, It really is that simple.

If you actually care about your data you simply will have to switch platforms. Illumos or FreeBSD. Linux has no answer to the horrors of garbage Filesystems and garbage lying hardware, firmware etc that has plagued UNIX admins for ever. Btr

I have complained on bsd related threads before how the industry as a whole should be appalled and embarrassed to their core for using core tools, utils like OpenSSH and not giving a damn penny in return to fund its development. Everyone us

My guess was Netflix, and then someone reminded me of Nintendo now that the switch is out. So those would be my two guesses as to who is leaning on them. Perhaps iXsystems as well.

Argh! Yet another incredible piece of software I never heard of until stumbling across the posts here in a HN thread. Why is finding these great pieces of software so hard! Thanks for the tip on it!

Greg, Thanks for sharing this! As I get older and try to record as much family history I can, I really enjoy you and others sharing what you can about family/company history for the future. Stories like this from first hand accounts ar

I would not use ZFS on Linux when it's much more stable and supported better on illumos or FreeBSD.

Seconded! Here in Kansas City we just completed our first downtown light rail. And they are already discussing plans to expand it. It's been such a great new mode of transport for visitors and locals. I think most of us couldn't h

I'm a big fan of rail. I wish we had a bullet train going from E to W coast through Kansas City. I would happily pay more taxes for it. The thing for me is ive never understood why the cost per mile is so freaking outrageously stupidly

They would never EVER adopt something NIH. Linux is riddled with proof of that. They should still adopt kqueue though. But he is right, it is, just.. broken isn't even the right word. Crime against humanity maybe? What is so disturbi

As I've said earlier in this story thread, you CANT restrict a RIGHT. If you can it's not a right it is a privelage. The courts are quite clear we have a constitutional right not privelage to keep and bear arms. Perhaps the state

First, you can't control a right. Second the cities in the US with the strictest gun control laws have the highest gun death rates. I.e Detroit.

It will be. The shooter is going to get the death penalty I'm quite certain of it.

Perhaps if you did the British would not have robbed your country blind. Unlike almost every? Country on this planet our constitution was written to protect the people from the government. Giving your citizens the RIGHT to keep and use arms

I don't feel it is valid because it is rather nonsensical to group an entire country of 300 plus million into the same teaspoon of, at most, a handful of mentally insane killers.

My wife is coworkers with the girl whose husband, the Indian that didn't die, was shot. We've had dinner with them several times. She and her husband are... Simply the sweetest quietest people you would ever meet. She is just a fe

Who knows. As I said those who grew up in a rural setting know that things like raw milk are incredibly delicious and good for you. The absolute diluted sweetened garbage they label as "milk" in the store is vomit inducing. Same t

Use white vinegar in your water to help make the shell easier to peel.

Ancient chef secret: For perfect hard boiled eggs place the eggs in cold water, some white vinegar, place on high heat and bring to a boil. Remove from heat once it boils and time for exactly ten minutes. Remove and peel. Perfect hardboiled

I would love to see the actual science on this. I think the quote is absurd. And anyone who grew up in a rural setting knows it's absurd and a total falsehood. Eggs taken straight from a chicken and left out will be fine for quite a wh

That's NO different than what the "Federal reserve" does. Creates paper money out of thin air.

The amount of work it took to replace the gnu linker with LLD in freebsd was non trivial. But it's just about ready to be turned on in base.

I absolutely love Fossil. And the author is a great guy! It never gets the press or usage it deserves. Glad to see this come up on HN!

I've moved all our devices to DDG recently. It used to be goog on all our idevices. Mainly I was just to lazy. But I like DDG results and the engine and that they give back. Also they use FreeBSD which is a plus. Seems like a great com

Those are certainly very nice features to have. For me the syntax and ease of use is what I like. Although that is all subjective to each person of course. Plus the author is a great guy. No ego at all. Plus the license is more appealing to
