In EVE everything within 1000km is on the same “grid”. within a solar system you can only warp to known locations. That includes locations that were manually saved or celestial objects like moons and planets.

That means when someone warps to a moon, they can see anyone who warped to that moon, since they are on the same grid.

A safe spot is a location that isn’t on the same grid as a known location. You can still be scanned down by someone, but there are ways to know about it.

Edit: Its been a while and I’m no expert, so anyone feel free to correct me.

To anyone who finds EVE fascinating, but doesn’t actually want to play it themselves, I can highly recommend the “Empires of EVE” books by Andrew Groen. The two volumes span the time from beta to 2014 and talk about the wars and empires of Null Sec. The author interviewed loads of players. It’s a fascinating read.

Thank you. You just gave me a flashback to Total War: Rome campaign I played as a kid. I didn’t play long, because it got boring fast. I had exclusive horse archer armies that wiped out whole armies without losses.

IIRC TrueNAS next release will include RaidZ1 with 2 disks

As for migration, you might be able to create a degraded pool initially, copy over the data, and add the parity disk last.

I actually asked in the TrueNAS forum about this idea. According to some knowledgeable users this might work. For anyone interested, details here. The next major release (planned for end of October), should make this easier.

“Pay no attention to the next console behind the curtain! Buy our stuff!”

Ugh. I kind of wish you would just go gracefully into the background Peter.

He passed gracefully 2 or 3 “games” ago. The quotation marks, because they were basically abandoned for a new gimmick, without delivering.

It’s not easy to find info like the sound of the switch/button with gaming mice.

Maybe the Razer Pro Click, Razer’e answer to the MX Master mice, could work for you.

I recently upgraded my XBox 360 Wireless controller and got the Flydigi Vader 3 Pro. Hall Effect Sensors trigger guard. Picked it up for und er 50 bucks on Aliexpress. They are available on Amazon US, but not in Europe.

Really happy with it so far.

Repeat after me “Fines need to be tied to global revenue”. It has to hurt, if you want companies to stop.

Congress should have a theme for this. “Warcrime Wednesdays”?

He is a overall a good dude. I love what he did with his Sneakers:

As per Joe Pompliano, In 1998, when Shaq was on his way out of the Orlando arena, a mother was seen cursing at him. She posed the question, “Why don’t one of you s** o** a B****** make an affordable sneaker?” in front of him that made him wonder. He even offered her $200 which she violently refused.

The Lakers legend stopped to think about the enormous difference in the actual cost of basketball shoes and how much a typical family could spend. This led to his decision to leave Reebok and start his own line. A thought occurred in Shaq’s mind and he turned to the biggest retailer in the world, Walmart.

It’s been two decades, and Shaq has been selling most of his shoes at Walmart for $15-$30, compared to Nike’s $200 and more. This helped him sell over 120 million pairs of shoes.

I don’t see the value in using an extension just to automatically watch YouTube in HD. Maybe 10 years ago, but now we got Newpipe.

Also Google Search has gone downhill for quite some time now. Why should I install an extension that reverts the enshittification Google has deliberately created?

DDG, Qwant, searXNG maybe even Brave or Kagi are better options. If you like Google Search so much, at least use Startpage.

“Oops.” - The people killing our world and won’t face any real consequences.

More and more aspects of life require an app or at least a smartphone (QR codes). That already excludes older people from some aspects of daily life. Let’s do the same for kids!

Politicians should do their jobs and regulate tech and social media not ban useful devices.

HDR? Ah, you mean when videos keep flickering on Wayland!

I will switch when I need a new GPU.

Sports are divided by gender, because it’s easy. It has been done that way for a long time.

But how is a long jump competition between a 1,50m and a 1,90m woman fair?

It’s not.

People who want fairness should see past easy binary characteristics. We are tracking hormone levels, muscle mass, body fat and countless other statistics in professional sports. Why can’t we divide athletes in 3, 4, or more different groups?

“It’s unfair to have trans athletes compete with women!”

It’s unfair when I play basketball against LeBron, as well.

Bigoted people are making it about competition while holding onto the archaic division between men and women.

They could create other criteria and have 3, 4 … Separate groups. Making sports much fairer. But this is about oppression, not fairness.

How was there never a legal battle between KDE and Mortal Kombat?
