I 💝 OpenZFS

Working on research for a HPC storage cluster, one of my architecture doc sections quote this information from the wonderful group at Klara:

>
> .. Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) undertook porting ZFS to Linux, to form the backbone of their Lustre distributed filesystem. They noted that OpenZFS facilitated building a storage system that could support 1 terabyte per second of data transfer at less than half the cost of any alternative filesystem.
>
> Based on the success seen at LLNL, Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) started using ZFS as well.
>
> In the latest example, just a few months ago the U.S. Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory announced it had built Frontier, the world’s first exascale supercomputing system and currently the fastest computer in the world, backed by Orion, the massive 700 Petabyte ZFS based file system that supports it. This impressive system contains nearly 48,000 hard drives and 5,400 NVMe devices for primary storage, and another 480 NVMe just for metadata.

Quelqu'un aurait une doc qui tient la route sur libsensors ?
C'est imbitable, je ne trouve aucune explication qui se tient sur les différentes mesures.

A new #DestinationLinux has hit the road!

I heard one person at a meeting I was in, an older person mind you, saying that they wouldnt be beholden to microsoft office anymore because the subscription was so pricy, and that they switched to #LibreOffice
It literally made my day, because its proof that people do have limits, even as theybget older, of what abuse they'll take from companies, you just have to show them how they're abused and that theres a better way. Hopefully, I can show some of my older coworkers the freedom of #linux!

One of the best things to witness is seeing someone forget about their Windows partition. :)

Every success story shows that Fedora, and Linux in general, is continuing to push the desktop in the right direction - not only as an alternative to the mainstream options, but to what the desktop should have been all along.

Hey #Proxmox community! I would like to hear your thoughts on how you usually update your Proxmox nodes and clusters. How do you handle minor Proxmox and #Debian package upgrades with #APT?

What would you think about a new API endpoint that lets you run unattended upgrades with a simple call like:

/nodes/{node_name}/apt/upgrade

Some people I know have given in to the Microsoft propaganda, and replacing a perfectly good machine 😭

Does anyone know of any effort to donate/re-own such machines, and perhaps give them away to people who need them?

Ideally in France (south), but I'll take anything that doesn't land the machine in the bin as I'm unfortunately not on site to do it myself.

I only just learned you can use the mouse in the TTY! (The Linux text-only console you get to by pressing Ctrl+Alt+F1, F2, etc.)

Some applications that enable this are gpm and consolation.

consolation worked better for me, especially when in tmux; however, I still can't get scrolling with middle button and trackpoint to work, which is what would be the most useful for me. I don't know if it has to do with consolation, tmux mouse bindings, my particular ThinkPad model, etc. I can't find anything online about this, so if you've also dabbled in this, please share your experience!

🐧 Linux 6.18 To Add Detection For FreeBSD's Bhyve Hypervisor - Phoronix

｢ As covered originally a few days ago, the Linux kernel has been working on Bhyve hypervisor detection for being able to support more than 255 vCPUs. The FreeBSD 15.0 release coming out in December has 15-bit MSI enlightenment support for being able to handle more than 255 vCPUs. Thus for Linux VM usage with Bhyve there's now a need for this hypervisor detection ｣

The Debian-based version and Linux Mint 22.3 will both be appearing by year's end.

With #Windows10 about to retire to the big bit farm in the sky, now's an ideal time to give Linux Mint a try.

I have a fanless thin client arriving in the next couple of days (snagged it for $35!). The original plan was to port over my existing OpenBSD desktop, but I’ve been eyeing elementaryOS for a while now.

I remember playing with version 6 back in the day and quite enjoying it. Might test it out first before fully committing to OpenBSD right away 😛
