So far the only thing bothering me so far is the way the tabs look (in Finder and Safari). And I did turn on the menu bar background.


Have the tabs in Finder always been slow to appear? Right now there is a noticeable delay from when I press cmd+tab to when tab animates itself into existence, reminds me of lag in windows 11.


For me it is very fast to appear. I am on a M3 MacBook Pro.


It seems instant to me?


I am probably the only one but the geek in me would love to see an article where digital forensics are used against the most common operating systems in their most secure configuration - just to see how they compare with one another.


> most common operating systems in their most secure configuration

Air-gapped and turned off?


All is well


That would be ideal if coupled with a mode where the paddles never miss.


IMHO DMCA takedown requests should be allowed to be automated.


So you want 10,000 law firms run automated AI crawlers that churn through the server quota of mostly innocent people in the hope they can find something for a takedown?

I don't think so unless they pay my server costs. And even with "only" 1-5% false positives you will fry a lot of innocent people.


They also must be optional :) . DMCA is too outdated.


I had the same experience when under anesthesia. It feels like the time before I can remember being alive.


I hadn't heard of this. Thanks for submitting it.


One thing I am curious about is its version of ZFS. Would it be incompatible with OpenZFS from a Linux/FreeBSD system?


You would have to look at the feature flags that your pool uses and see whether they match the flags that illumos supports. OpenZFS's feature flags are a superset of illumos's, so you'd be able to use a pool created on illumos on Linux/FreeBSD if that's what you're asking. https://openzfs.github.io/openzfs-docs/Basic%20Concepts/Feat...


You can create ZFS pools that are more or less compatible with anything.

Details here:

Solaris was the reference implementation of ZFS. Are you wondering if you could migrate disk pools from BSD/Linux to Solaris ZFS?


Illumos hasn't been Solaris for a long time. In particular, illumos uses pool version 5000 plus feature flags, while the proprietary version is still on version 28 or so without feature flags. OpenZFS is also much closer to the exact code in illumos, as far as I know there are some differences these days because they don't stay exactly in sync but they're close-ish.


Zfs on linux is its own project with a lot of development to make it run well on Linux

That answers the Linux part of your question


ZFS on Linux has effectively taken over as the standard version of ZFS. It got renamed to OpenZFS a few years ago after the FreeBSD project chose to start using it for their ZFS support rather than upstream illumos ZFS due to how much more active the ZoL project was than upstream.


> it seems a bit counterintuitive to place your trust in a community who will probably cannot be held into account once some bad actor slips into their ranks, creates a bad patch and empties my bank account

From what I have observed, nobody is held to account when there is a software issue, commercial or open source.


I recently started to plan for off-site, cloud-based storage and I have pretty much decided that I will be using Age to encrypt my backup files. It basically does everything I need.

My appreciation to the creator.


Your comment takes me back to a time when there was a blogger named "DrunkenBatman". Seems like ages ago now.


I miss DrunkenBatman...

I used to regularly check for years after he stopped posting, just in case...

The last it was active was in 2019, then it disappeared forever.

This is an interesting tale, because Drunkenbatman ducked out of public view after he gave a speech at the C4 conference which we would now call “woke”. He called everyone in the room racists because there weren’t many bl*ck Apple customers or developers, and in 2007, you were allowed to disagree with such ideas.
