“Looksmaxxers” are losers and freaks, but we let them steer the culture when we adopt their terminology.

ZFS can display I/O statistics for a given pool using the iostat subcommand.
By default, it will display one line of current activity. To display stats
every 5 seconds run the following command (cancel with CTRL+C):

zpool iostat 5

To view individual disk activities, specify the -v parameter:

zpool iostat -v

Of course, both can be combined. For more options, see zpool(8).

Gemini 3.1 Pro produced an excellent pelican riding a bicycle SVG but took over 5 minutes to do it - I'm pretty sure that's just teething problems on launch day though, I got a few error messages about capacity while trying it out. https://simonwillison.net/2026/Feb/19/gemini-31-pro/

Are Mamuthones the relatives of Mastodonters?

The 0.12 version will allow configuring the time to wait for an LSP server to stop before doing force stop. It will be controlled by `exit_timeout` field of LSP server config. PRs: - github.com/neovim/neovi... - github.com/neovim/neovi... - github.com/neovim/neovi... - github.com/neovim/neovi...

feat(lsp): support auto-force ...

if i didn't keep Tap running and then run it, is there a way to tell it to catchup? i thought it catches up automatically but it doesn't seem to

RE: https://hachyderm.io/@cyberlyra/116074966881545815

TIL that I am a "keener" (not in any way derogatory), and so are some of my closest family and best friends. Thinking back it explains so much, from my academic failures -- I was held back a year in high school, then skipped a year, then dropped out -- to my anguish watching overachievers talk about their achievements. I'm only very slowly coming to the realization that not everyone is a keener and that's actually okay? I guess?

I still feel sorry for people who aren't keeners, though. Sorry, can't turn that off.

I’m thinking about sending everyone a Polaroid of something super weird and I really can't explain it, but you get the picture.

Ok, I've been using the ZSA Voyager for two months straight, and finally returned to my Kinesis Advantage 2 (which I have had since like, 2008 or 2009). The ZSA Voyager is astoundingly good for a keyboard that can be packed up really tightly for travel! But the Kinesis is way more ergonomic by far.

Sardinia’s ancient masked rite of mamuthones and issohadores – in pictures

From mid-January until the end of carnival, #mamuthones and #issohadores take to the streets of Mamoiada, in the mountainous heartland of Sardinia. This is a time when herders and farmers across the Mediterranean turn to the power of masks to cast off winter and foster the coming of spring.

Adre, Chad
Sudanese refugees, displaced by the conflict in their home country, wait to collect water. The most recent wave of arrivals from Sudan follows an offensive by the Rapid Support Forces militia group to capture the north Darfur city of El Fasher, where 6,000 people were reportedly killed by the RSF during three days in October.
