Lady First 專欄(61)- 當我想起你

尋晚,一個大好嘅星期日晚,我冇留喺屋企成日對住個電視咁浪費時間,黃昏就同朋友打扮妥當出咗去聽concert。

你以為我哋去紅館?當然唔係啦,我哋去捧朋友場,去文化中心音樂廳聽交響樂。

帶著ST550去旅行(一)—初到貴境吉隆坡

剛踏出飛機,步入吉隆坡機場,便隨手拿出我的這部新DC仔在機場內四圍亂拍,也不太理會什麼人手設定了,一於全程場景Mode,Point & Shoot就算,如果還要我左度右度,就無資格做傻瓜機DC仔了。

A brief introduction to ZFS (disk) GUIDs

Although ZFS commands like ' zpool status ' will generally not tell youthis, ZFS does not actually identify pool devices by their device name.Well, mostly it doesn't. The real situation is somewhat complex.

ZFS likes identifying pool-related objects with what it calls a 'GUID',a random and theoretically unique 64-bit identifier. Pools have GUIDs,vdevs have GUIDs, and, specifically, disks (in pool configurations) haveGUIDs. ZFS internally uses the GUID for most operations; for

When I was rebuilding www.jeffgeerling.com in Drupal, I decided to use the testing domain new.jeffgeerling.com .

The danger of software suspend on servers

One of the interesting things about modern servers is that they oftenhave the same sort of power-save support that desktops and laptops have,including the ability to be suspended in various ways.
