Very interesting, thanks for the message. I might use it in my next Nas, but my workstation is staying on regular lvm, too much hassle to change probably…

Care to elaborate about these ZFS features?

ICQ, peasant!

If the status is “I can’t afford a BMW” then yes, it’s a status symbol.

Then the issue is not with Tesla, it’s with high performance cars. You are comparing small commuter cars with high performance cars. Among which, Tesla is the cheapest.

I’d love to see where an iX1 is 40k, in Germany it starts at 48k… with less power, smaller battery and a whole lot of equipment missing. Want a glass roof? 1500€. Want a wireless charger? Then you need the premium package, 1750€. A big screen? 3200€, please! A nicely configured one comes to around 60k. An equivalen model y is 45k.

A Tesla is significantly cheaper than an equivalent combustion car.

Are you comparing a 5 seat 400HP tesla with a 4 seat 120HP Renault? Of course the 120HP Renault is cheaper.

Compare it to a 400HP BMW (or even a 200HP Renault).

EDIT: a Tesla Model 3 is 43.000€, a Renault Megane RS starts at 50.000€

Not in the EU for sure. American cars have always been “lots of horsepower and low-ish quality for a low price”, and Tesla keeps the trend.

Where in the world is Tesla a status symbol? Because I bought my M3P because I couldn’t afford a BMW i4 M50, let alone a iX or EQS/EQE AMG. The BMW is similar size and performance and costs 30% more.

I still like it, but it was the compromise option.

My github profile is under my real name, so no thanks. Won’t be giving my social security or credit card numbers either.

I assume you program in Javascript and haven’t written C code ever. SPARC doesn’t allow unaligned memory access to this day, no matter what parameters you throw to the compiler. If a program doesn’t process endianness won’t work correctly. s/online/inline/g. You didn’t even address 4 other arguments.

“if you can compile it, it will work” is just false.

It was implied in the discussion: “if you can compile it, it will work”.

There’s plenty of ARM processors before Cortex. There’s SPARC. And there’s a crapton of others with their quirks.

Just because you can compile a program from source, it doesn’t guarantee it will work. As mentioned: online assembly, memory alignment, but you can add endianness or questionable pointer arithmetic, not to mention dynamic runtime code generation. And I’m sure there’s 5 other reasons that I haven’t personally run into.

Yeah, in a perfect world everyone would write bug-free, platform-independent code, alas…

Nonaligned memory access can occur in C code. I’m not speaking about nextcloud, you mentioned "if you can compile it works (for any architecture) ", which is demonstrably false.

SIGILL

Nah, they suck too.

Sometimes I’m on the phone and just want to type a few sentences on-topic, not a history essay.

It’s not taking a clear side, sometimes one of them is the topic of conversation.

I’m sure you’ll change their views. Godspeed!

Elon… Tusk?
