    Halo there!

    @rationaldoge after a bit of searching I found a map in a screen grab of what I’m sure was a very exciting 5 hour meeting of government officials. It was much easier to find in this video than I expected. There was a little ask AI button that answered the question “At what point is devils lake discussed?” to which it replied “The discussion about Devil&amp;#39;s Lake State Park begins at (1:27:20).” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b0w2ZLcqLis #IceAgeTrail #DevilsLakeStatePark #Wisconsin

    @NebulaTide what’s the threat model? If all you care about is privacy of your data, ZFS encryption may be sufficient. If you care about privacy of things like dataset names, how often you create snapshots, properties and their values, ordering of writes to various datasets, etc., then you want full disk encryption. Perhaps your threat model requires both types of encryption for the most privacy and compartmentalization. This has nothing to do with FreeBSD, it is common to ZFS on all platforms.

    I’m seeing an increasing number of duplicate posts in my feed caused by people having multiple fediverse accounts and cross posting interesting hashtags between them. Is there a reason people are doing this? #askFedi

    @basetwojesus try smartctl -a. I had an NVMe drive that slowed to a crawl when the battery used for power loss protection died.

    @Myotis_cuniculus I think the rechargeable hearing aids tend to be more forgiving of water than older ones. My current set are rated IP68. An important feature of hearing aids is that they only amplify the frequencies where there is hearing loss. Amplifying everything can be detrimental. I have severe loss in one ear. A 4 hour flight listening to podcasts with noise cancelling headphones with the balance adjusted so I felt I could hear in stereo left my bad ear ringing for hours.
