You are wildly off base if you think I have any love for that monster.

You are also completely wrong in that oppression is the natural state of power.

Them: “We need a strong central government to protect everyone!”

Me: “Don’t do that! If bad people get control there’s gonna be trouble!”

Them: “You just hate people!” votes for strong government

Them when that strong government is then taken over by bad people: 😯

How would you stop them from doing this?

By dismantling as much of the power structure as I can. As often as I can.

Burn.

It

All

Down.

The problem is that government even has the power to do those things.

And to paraphrase you, you can’t solve government problems with more government, I’m sorry, man.

Rofl. Your god can eat a dick. I’ve seen exactly what your god does.

It’s easier to start a competing company than it is to start a competing government.

You need a powerful standing army for the latter, and standing armies are part of why we’re in the trouble we’re in.

How naive can you be? You think your vote matters here?

When every single district has been gerrymandered to death for 100 years, nobody’s vote really matters anymore.

So you want Trump and MAGA politicians to be able to deny your payments instead?

The problem with “just let the government do it” is when the government is run by people like this.

Did you even read the article? It clearly states a core SOFTWARE component. Not hardware.

“I know millions of people use their service because it’s the only real option they have, but because it’s associated with this one guy I don’t like, they can all eat a dick!”

Yeah we have a camera pointed at our driveway from our garage door. It isn’t close enough to the road to trigger movement from people walking or driving by.

But if they come inside the fence it’ll pick em up.

Also have a couple of cameras watching other random parts of the yard. We live on just under 2 acres, and it’s all enclosed in chain link fencing. Next to us is an automotive maintenance shop owned by a buy here pay here lot a few miles closer to town, and they don’t always hire the most trustworthy individuals to work on cars…

Because of porch pirates.

Not really. Look up Ford Bluecruise. Difference is, Ford wasn’t out there for years promising to have it all perfected in an unreasonably short timeframe. They just quietly worked on it until they felt it was ready. THEN they announced it.

I have just shy of 8TB of data on my home file server.

That’s not including my NVR (for security cameras) which has a single 6TB SATA drive sitting around 40% capacity.

I had a single red 2TB in an old tivo roamio for almost a decade.

Pulled out this weekend, and finally tested it. Failed.

I was planning to move my 1.5T music collection to it. Glad I tested it first, lol.

My folks had a tape backup system in the late 1990s. It used 250MB tapes.

They’ve been around for decades.

No, but I have downloaded yours.

zfs list shows datasets.

zpool list shows pools.

mirror is a type of pool.

Winwar 2 was based on a dos version of it, btw. I played it all the time with some friends back in the early 1990s.

You sure that’s what is happening, and it’s not just mounting a different snapshot/dataset being mounted “on top” ?

I’ve seen it happen, which is why I ask. Assume the root dataset is named pool0 and has set0 set1 and set1/set2 as child datasets.

Their mount points are as follows:

/pool0/set0

/pool0/set1

/pool0/set1/set2

Now, if somehow, say set2 gets unmounted.temporarily, and you save files to /pool0/set1/set2 while the data set is not mounted, it’ll actually put those files in the set1 dataset, under the set2 directory.

But, when you mount the pool0/set1/set2 dataset again, the files under the set1 dataset are hidden by the set2 child.

Am I explaining it well enough for you to follow along?

Make sure you don’t have some similar situation by temporarily unmounting any nested datasets and ls’ing their mount points.
