• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨7 reasons I chose Btrfs over ZFS for my home NAS⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I think people have forgotten what the point of a NAS is. Its for storage. You put files on it and don’t ask it to do much else. You want it to be quick so it can serve files to other machines. ZFS is a solid choice for this use-case.

  It might not be built-in to the kernel, but if it wasn’t for the openZFS licence it probably would have been. And its not like its hard to install it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft AI CEO pushes back against critics after recent Windows AI backlash — "the fact that people are unimpressed ... is mindblowing to me"⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Its a fair point but its not entirely accurate. If consumer windows users quit for another OS enmasse MS would feel it. Linux and Mac also have viable alternatives to Office apps, onedrive etc. Then there’s knock-on reputational damage to wholly-consumer Xbox.

  At the very least shareholders would ask questions. Going whole-hog on AI doesn’t seem like a good bed regardless of where your money comes from.

  Never mind any of that - does no-one do market research anymore? Did anyone bother to ask customers if they actually wanted any of this AI crap before billions of dollars was commited to it? Not to mention the damage to the environment.

  What’s funny is its not the first time Microsoft has found itself out of touch with customers.
