    FWIW, I have moved my WEB site to Gemini an decided a little later to mirror it on gopher (for fun). I find maintaining these 2 sites far easier then dealing with html and the *panels I need to use to upload to my old WEB site. People who h

    For my personal use, I have no need for ZFS on Linux (ext4) or *BSD (UFS/ffs). I have been playing with NetBSD for a bit and I discovered their FS has a log parameter, using that on mount to me makes their file system almost as good as

    And this is why the US should reform and allow immigration instead of being racist against people from "LA" and Africa. I have read various articles over the years stating the US economy is/was outdoing the rest of the Tier 1
