zfs is great. i wanted to copy my bitcoin node to external drive but didn’t want to shut it off during the copy… so i shut down my node, did a snapshot of the drive (instant), then started it again.

#zfs snapshots keep a readonly, immutable state of the drive in that moment with very little overhead. So my zaps can keep working while i clone the node (snapshots are just symlinks on the drive). Very slick.

I still prefer my FAT32. The daily defrag routine is my personal meditation time.

I know you are joking, but it is still heresy, you heathen! :-)

What do you know about me? See, I try to find things, and I found out that you're a transhumanist. Now, the thing is, I never want to be a transhumanist, but my dad always says I am a transhumanist, and before my grandmother was murdered by my dad, they put a brain implant in me, the UFOs, the triangle UFOs, or the orbs. Why me? Why was I a test subject for experiments by the government slash corporation slash military slash baking cartel?
