So good

Came here to say Mariners revenge. Love that song.

I have a portable hard drive that uses this. I haven’t bought a new cable yet, limiting me to USB 2 speeds. Bleh.

Oh you might be right there too

They make ones that look out the ground plug now. It’s wild.

Edit: but yes this one looks too old

Always removed about anything else?

Interesting. Why?

Thanks!

Got any more pixels? I wanna read it

Classic

Thanks for the write-up!

I see now I was conflating zfs with RAID in general. It makes sense that you could have the benefits of a checksumming filesystem without the need for RAID, by simply restoring from backups.

This is a great start for me to finally get some local backups going.

Can you explain this to me better?

I need to work on my data storage solution, and I knew about bit rot but thought the only solution was something like a zfs pool.

How do I go about manually detecting bit rot? Assuming I had perfect backups to replace the rotted files.

Is a zfs pool really that inefficient space wise?

Am I the only one who actually looked for more pixels for this guy?

Anywho, here you go my guy:

Edit: hmmm, Lemmy seems to be compressing it. Here’s a link.

Nope, made it scarier.

Also bad is when the big flakes are coming down heavy, flying over your windshield, lit up by your headlights. It’s like your flying at light speed, hard to see the road

Don’t need to go to China for this. Back when Michigan had real winters, less than a decade ago, this was a regular occurrence.

Asking the real questions

Small high power flashlight, about the size of a tube of m&ms. People laugh at it all the time, but it comes in handy weekly, sometimes daily.

Think of how many times you pull out your credit cell phone light. Now imagine being able to light up a room like daylight if need be. Very useful.

Those same people who laugh, eventually realize the value, and come asking for my light when we’re together and it’s needed

I keep a pair of those loop ones in my backpack for the same reason

Been there, felt the pain
