The Biden Campaign is Courting an Unexpected Group of Voters: Republicans
  • I’m not so sure. I think it’s established that the percentage of Republicans who won’t vote for Trump is a lot higher than the percentage that will admit to it in front of their peers.

    All we need is a few %, low single digits.

  • These states are basically begging you to get a heat pump
  • We got a new heat pump installed in our 1920s house in Minnesota a couple years ago. It works its ass off all year, and only needs help from the boiler in the deepest depths of winter, which it probably wouldn’t if the house were better insulated. It’s always cheaper for us than gas, and it feels great to have our climate control 80-90% decarbonized.

  • Bcachefs Merged into the Linux 6.7 Kernel
  • I’m a happy btrfs user, but it’s most definitely a great thing to see what seems like a really clean implementation like this that is able to learn from the many years of collective experience with ZFS and btrfs.

  • Workspaces go *brrrrr*
  • It is exactly that. I don’t understand the hate…Wayland is vastly better, less complex and more secure at the fundamentals of running an accelerated window system.

  • Workspaces go *brrrrr*
  • I just recently felt this again, since I decided it had been too long since I’d installed a weird OS, and now I’m running Wayfire on FreeBSD as suggested by the Wayland section of the setup guide and it turns out…it’s a descendant of Compiz. Wobbly windows are BACK!

    Just wanted to share some love for this filesystem.

    I’ve been running a btrfs raid1 continuously for over ten years, on a motley assortment of near-garbage hard drives of all different shapes and sizes. None of the original drives are still in it, and that server is now on its fourth motherboard. The data has survived it all!

    It’s grown to 6 drives now, and most recently survived the runtime failure of a SATA controller card that four of them were attached to. After replacing it, I was stunned to discover that the volume was uncorrupted and didn’t even require repair.

    So knock on wood — I’m not trying to tempt fate here. I just want to say thank you to all the devs for their hard work, and add some positive feedback to the heap since btrfs gets way more than it’s fair share of flak, which I personally find to be undeserved. Cheers!
