I think this is more true than not. But also underestimates the technical problem. Airplanes are not fully autonomous, even in the instrument flight rules system which is highly standardized. You don't have non-standard or non-predicta

Scrub checks every data and metadata block and compare to checksum. If missing, or wrong transid, or wrong csum, btrfs will replace the block from a good copy. There is a potential gotcha with parity being wrong following a crash or powerfa

Most distros have a udev rule in place that inhibits a mount attempt of a multiple device Btrfs until all devices are visible to the kernel. The degraded mount option won't even matter in this case, because mount isn't attempted.

Automatic degraded mount at boot time isn't implemented by md either, it's implemented by a dracut module (or whatever creates the initramfs). The gist is that when mdadm assembly fails, the dracut module's script performs a

Scrub, not balance. It's primarily a read operation. The on-disk format has all the information needed to do an automatic abbreviated scrub, but the feature isn't implemented yet.

Racism is not a disability. No one gets to use mental illness to excuse being an vile asshole. Musk tries to do this by blaming "Asperger's" when in reality he too is just another asshole.

What's "very far away?" Looks like BETA Technologies has a real airplane, ALIA, that'll potentially be certified next year. They're currently building a manufacturing facility to mass produce it. I think what's

Pantone sells mixed inks in a bucket. Printing presses tend to only have cyan, magenta, yellow, black ink in them. The density of those inks varies naturally as a printing press runs. That variation isn't kind to business identity colo

I agree. If these aren't public benefit corporations, I'm not interested. I used to gleefully ridicule all things Twitter. But I've come to see it as more of a public benefit than a public menace. The automated censoring aggr

It’s unlikely Elon Musk knows about this himself. The reference to water is so specific that this clearly is a message from Putin. Musk is being played. This is a great power conflict, the third great power conflict in the European space

They are effectively financing genocide and war crimes. By supporting this draft, they favor tyranny over their own employees.

No. There's zero evidence any Ukrainians want to alter borders. In 1991 when the borders were set, there was a referendum and all regions in Ukraine voted in favor of independence from Russia. In the Budapest Memorandum, Ukraine became

Getting out of the Twitter deal could be a motive for having done this, aside from the Tesla supply chain dependency. The Tesla board should move on from Musk. SpaceX is not in a good position, because he has a majority of the voting power.

Very nice introduction to NILSFS, which has been in the Linux kernel since 2009.

Annexing is illegal per the UN Charter, and the Geneva Convention. Not only is there no annexing, formal or informal, mentioning it is an intentional distraction away from the war of aggression Russia had to commit first to create the condi

Irrational thinking seems unlikely. When glucose deficit, the brain functions fine on ketones. It might be you're experiencing your brain running on ketones.

I never advocated to consider everything a test of courage. I only said it's certain that confronting evil requires it. As I see it, the "roll over" contingency are emotionally weak, demanding to be coddled by Ukraine sacrifi

Cowards volunteer other people to be more brave and sacrifice more than they already have. It's also uncivilized. There is one escalating party, and Russia can end this war faster than anyone. By withdrawing. In the meantime, Ukraine h

Circa 1994, Poland insisted on joining NATO, otherwise they would start their own nuclear weapons program. Why? Because they didn't trust Russia. Ukraine voluntarily entered the Nuclear non-Proliferation Treaty, via the Budapest Memora

I understand why people are pissing their pants over a hypothetical more than the reality. It takes a lot of courage to confront evil. It even takes courage to admit evil exists. Not everyone has this capability. Ukraine has a right to defe

Can poor people afford to maintain either hybrid or electric? What's the third party repair market? There is no right to repair a Tesla or anything using that business model.

If you can't educate the basics, then you don't really know anything. Anyone spouting appeasement has already removed themselves from any discussion.

This sounds familiar. Chamberlain's appeasement to tyranny. Giving Putin what he asks for would kick the can down the road for couple years, too. Meanwhile, a genocidal antagonistic ideological social group, this Russian regime, will g

Even if it doesn't go nuclear, millions can die. See the 2nd Congo War for a recent example, 5.4 million excess deaths due to disease and starvation. The loss of life for combatants in that war is less than the total in Russia-Ukraine
