  • ZFS doesn’t really support mismatched disks. In OP’s case it would behave as if it was 4x 2TB disks, making 4 TB of raw storage unusable, with 1 disk of parity that would yield 6TB of usable storage. In the future the 2x 2TB disks could be swapped with 4 TB disks, and then ZFS would make use of all the storage, yielding 12 TB of usable storage.

    BTRFS handles mismatched disks just fine, however it’s RAID5 and RAID6 modes are still partially broken. RAID1 works fine, but results in half the storage being used for parity, so this would again yield a total of 6TB usable with the current disks.









  • My home-assistant installation alone is too much for my Raspberry Pi 3. It depends entirely on how much data it’s processing and needing to keep in memory.

    Octoprint needs to respond in a timely manner, so you will want to have the system mostly idle (at least below 60 percent CPU at all times), preferably octoprint should be the only thing running on the system unless it’s rather powerful.

    If I were you, I would install octoprint exclusively on your Raspberry Pi 3, and then buy a Raspberry Pi 4 for the other services.

    I’m running Pi-hole and a wireguard VPN on an old Raspberry Pi 2, which is perfectly fine if you are not expecting gigabit speeds on the VPN.









  • Fair, that is pretty awesome feature, especially for the tab sprawl in this day and age.

    I (obviously) use Firefox, and I had the same problem, and found the “Tree Style Tab” extension solves the same problem for me, however it does it in a very different way.

    Instead of having your tabs along the top of the window, your tabs are kept in a sidebar, and vertically. Opening new tabs from an already open page makes the new tabs nest under the original tab. You can collapse and expand whole trees of tabs, and move them around should you need to.

    It also integrates nicely with the “Container Tabs” putting a colored band next to the tabs belonging to each container.

    The tabs being vertical also means that you can always read the titles of the tabs, they don’t get “squished”.

    It does cost a chunk of screen real estate, but for me the organization is worth it.

    BTW: The extension doesn’t itself hide the tabbar at the top of the window, but that can be hidden with a relatively easy modification to a file.




  • According to Karl, Billy must pay all the legal fees if he withdraws from the lawsuit. He must also pay the legal fees if he loses. Billy’s only way out of paying would be to win the lawsuit.

    So the longer Karl strings him along, the more the fees will mount.

    And since Billy doesn’t have a leg to stand on he can either withdraw now, pay a lot of money, and admit he lied. Or he can keep fighting mounting more fees in the slim nope of winning.
