You can limit the depth of the displayed datasets in the "zfs list" output
using the -d parameter. To display only the first level of datasets below
mypool/usr and not the ones deeper than those, run this command:

zfs list -d 1 mypool/usr

-- Benedict Reuschling <bcr@FreeBSD.org>

wait does this mean you can easily check if X is blocking Y now

SML/NJ has been a thing for almost 40 years, which means that for 4 decades now, the world has been waiting for someone to introduce Standard ML of California

GitHub is becoming more and more broken. Not only are they pushing Copilot everywhere, which is arguably one of the worst LLMs out there, but also keep deploying bugs. I tried to tell GitHub to stop recommending repos to me in the activity log. It made the page completely freeze indefinitely every single time. They probably vibe-coded that feature. This is happening increasingly often, in companies that can afford to hire every developer twice over.

No AI music, 'Guaranteed Human' promises from mass media corps? Yep, the AI bubble is popping. #NoAI #Supporthumanart

Media companies demanding hand drawn art. Looks like the plagiarism software / pyramid scheme that is Gen AI is falling apart. Who's cooked now, AI artists?

New features
Allow asking AI questions about any book in your calibre library. Right click the "View" button and choose "Discuss selected book(s) with AI"
AI: Allow asking AI what book to read next by right clicking on a book and using the "Similar books" menu
AI: Add a new backend for "LM Studio" which allows running various AI models locally

So all of capitalism will explode with the AI MOAB (Mother of All Bubbles)? Let's go.

3d printed NOAI signs are finished! Table-top and hanging versions.

67 students. 6 weeks. 87 infections.

A new study finds the real driver of school virus spread isn’t close contact — it’s air.

Poor ventilation (CO₂ >1000 ppm) nearly doubles transmission risk. Hours in shared classrooms (RR 3.17) matter far more than minutes spent near someone (RR 1.16).

It’s the air we share. Fix ventilation.

As someone who has been an artist before,
and had my hard work stolen by billionaires without compensation and my copyright violated against my consent,

I cannot tell you how much rage and disgust I feel inside every single time I see a genAI image. I'm guessing many other artists feel the same. Please keep it out of my sight at least.

I have an iPhone that was dropped, and WIFI / LTE stopped working. The thought was to just make the phone a camera, but after I wiped the device, this is the error message that I cannot get past:

And here comes a stunning image of Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS, taken on Dec. 2 by the dynamic astrophotographer duo of Gerald Rhemann and Michael Jäger, showing the comet's tails in full glory.

It clearly shows a long wispy plasma tail and a dust tail that appears as an "anti-tail" pointing in the opposite direction.

The image was taken by their remote telescope in Namibia.

Anyone else having trouble w #Loops app crashing whenever you try to upload? I had this problem yesterday w my browser from the #fdroidstore and Im starting to suspect some age-restricted-internet-style remote shenanigans. Restarted my phone yesterday, it did not fix the problem

Fyi Im not a tech person, mainly wondering if this is a widespread issue or limited to my device so I know how much/whether to blame myself or the Epstein class
