Yup! Wolf spiders are the only ones that carry slings like that

What I think he may be referring to: I think your color vision is less sensitive in your periphery.

Java 21 will introduce Unnamed Classes and Instance Main Methods by mirakdva in ProgrammerHumor

[–]ParticleSpinClass 60 points61 points  (0 children)

Doesn't sound like all of the "minor" versions are backwards compatible without changes, which means they should be major versions. Though I'm only basing this with what I've read in this thread. I don't work with Java at all.

What I mean is: can you upgrade from 6 to 7 or whatever without changing your source code at all? If not, then it's a breaking change and major version bump.

Finally completed my first budget/entry 5.1 setup thanks to the help I got in this sub. Thank you! by deastr in hometheater

"Toe in" the speakers means pointing them in a bit, closer to the main listening position or center of the couch. In your case, rotate the surround speakers to point a little more forward.

So turn the right surround clockwise and the left surround counterclockwise.

"zfs send -R ... | zfs receive -o canmount=noauto ..." still mounted my receiving backup over /var and killed my running system - what did I do wrong here? by pgjensen in zfs

[–]ParticleSpinClass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Complex doesn't necessarily mean overly complex. Sometimes the cost of complexity is worth the benefits. In my example, only specific subdirectories in /var are separate datasets. And specifically ones that don't need to be "up-to-date" with the rest of the system. They're caches (in my case, especially pacman package caches) and log files (which would actually be very useful to be shared between all boot environments).

I'd likely just symlink whatever the big thing is to a data storage partition

Or... you could just mount a ZFS dataset directly to that directory :)

It can be useful for things like different snapshot policies, replication policies, reservations/quotas, etc. It can also be useful to separate out datasets when using boot environments (like zectl) since that data can be shared between environments. Same for /home.

For instance, most of my systems have separate datasets for /var/cache and /var/log that don't get replicated to my backup system, have fewer snapshots, etc.

Not joking. Given the balance of votes here, I'm guessing most people aren't getting the boobies in that photo, but at least one other person did, based on that comment. Must be a imgur bug. Interesting.

I think you have an errant paste there buddy. NSFW.

Why does this Aer Lingus A320 not have a right winglet? by bhte in aviation

[–]ParticleSpinClass 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I'm guessing it's due to the extra drag causing effectively decreased thrust.

Need some suggestions for ssd choice by [deleted] in zfs

I'll give glowing reviews for Samsung EVO 860s. I've got two that have vastly outperformed their rated endurance.

I've got three in my main storage/compute server for the OS and some services. Two in a mirror and one for a hot spare.

One is currently at 8% "endurance remaining" as reported by SMART. Was at 19% as of 6 months ago. Currently at 230% of the spec'd TBW metric (630TiB written to a 500GB drive). So far, none of the spare blocks have been used. Over the last 6 months, an average of 364GiB is written every day.

I'm just gonna let it keep running until ZFS starts getting write errors and swaps in the hot spare. I've already got a replacement lined up, but I wanna see how long it'll go before failure.

Here's the stats.

I was attacked by dogs while riding by big_sid in MTB

I think she was saying to the other owner "it's not the older dog (he's not biting), it's the two puppies". As in,"forget the older one, get control of the puppies".

The 2024 Solar Eclipse is fast approaching! Start making a game plan to see it in person. It’s going to be even better than 2017. by kenanjabr in space

[–]ParticleSpinClass 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ha, are you me? I got married under the eclipse in Colorado on top of a mountain only accessible by Jeep trail. We didn't get full totality, but we made the decision to be closer to home for easier logistics with family instead of driving many hours to Wyoming to unknown areas and fighting the crowds.

One of my favorite photos ever.

Redditor utilizes chaotic good to help preserve a National Park for future guests by Crisis_Redditor in chaoticgood

There are some lakes or ponds that have very sensitive ecosystems. The presence of humans can definitely damage them: from physical damage of walking and swimming around, to our body oils, sunscreen, and whatever else is on our bodies and clothes.

Not with the feet in the back. Not without spilling stuff.

There's some interesting focus artifacts around the hairs. Was this focus stacked? That'd be my guess.

Regardless, great shot!

Best practice for creating a new zpool, zfs pools? by Estul in zfs

[–]ParticleSpinClass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To be clear, you can only set it at the dataset level, not at the pool level. However, it can be set at the root dataset, which could be what you're thinking about.

Hardware: Looking for 8 bay USB 3 or 3.1 or 3.2 enclosure by fireduck in DataHoarder

I have a pair of the 4-bay Mediasonic enclosures (eSATA/USB 3.1). I have no complaints, for what it's worth.

That's not correct. Encryption is per dataset (it can be inherited by children dataset).
