Yeah, Texas needs energy they don't have. They could have it if they were connected to any other power grid. But they purposefully built their grid to be incompatible with the US's other grids. There are still some interchanges, b

I think the 42 to 8 statistic is measuring a different metric. My understanding is that natural gas, coal, and other fossil fuel-based electric sources only run when it is profitable to do so. When the price of natural gas is low and the pr

Twitter is banned in China. Why should Twitter let the CCP use their platform for propaganda campaigns? Do you think Twitter banning them is as bad as CCP concentration camps in Xinjiang?

This is to switch from 2 disk raidz1 to 3 disk raidz1 without needing additional drives to hold the data while moving.

There's a hacky workaround, but it depends on how many drives you have and what your tolerance for downtime is. I had 2x8TB drives in RAIDZ1 configuration (sda, sdb), and I added an extra 8TB drive (sdc). My solution was: offlining one
