    It may not be a scam per se, but it certainly is a misnomer at this point… it’s one of those words (like “enterprise” or “pro”) that have been appropriated by marketing and devoided of any meaning. AI as a word will gradually die while people gradually realize it doesn’t mean anything. Marketing consumes words (and people too).








  • In your shoes I’d do just that (booting from a usb stick and creating/mounting the appropriate partitions in the new drives)… but you might find resilvering or resizing partitions easier if you are more familiar with those operations that I am.

    It must be said that actually copying the files rather than working with block devices will let you switch to a different filesystem (or take advantage of updates/optimizations recently introduced by your filesystem) or use different mount options (eg. add compression) and should in theory lead to better performance (eg. less fragmentation). In a homelab the performance difference will probably be unnoticeable anyways so… just go with the method you are most comfortable with :)

    Death warrant? Maybe, but I expect companies (maybe not the EU, but - let’s be frank - probably the EU too) to go back into X as soon as they feel they are done cashing in this virtue signaling.

    There were plenty of reasons to leave twitter before this idiotic tweet from Musk (reasons due to twitter’s action as a company, and not just Musk’s drunken posts) and they were all happily tweeting and advertising.

    Is this drop that breaks the camel’s back? Maybe, but I wouldn’t be holding my breath.
