@bsmaalders No dedupe on either

ok #freebsd and #zfs mastodon people. Answer me this, I have a ZFS filesystem on machine A, I zfs-send it to machine B (zfs send -R) (zfs receive -Fv). machine A has 4T of space *total*. machine B has 8T of space. when done, machine B has only 250g of free space available), the filesystem is almost _twice_ as large?

@gavininny fewer people here than I expected

@gavininny Well.. I am off to it now. I'll let you know how it is.

@gavininny It is going to be epic I would wager

@gavininny You coming to L&F tonight?

@skulegirl XCode is like the most developer hostile IDE I have ever experienced. It will randomly decide that it will upgrade itself and your build tools will fail because you now need to reinstall a bunch of its components.

@gavininny @SamUpstate yeah.

@burgerbecky did you test for C19? This sounds a LOT like when I had C19.. that cough especially.. it just won't go away. I had to test _3_ times every other day before the 3rd test, after 6 days of symptoms, finally tested positive

today was rough...

@burgerbecky I love when that happens, so productive.

@dvl double booting from USB stick 🤮 I hadn't followed closely enough that, I though that was just to do an update step, not a forever thing

@dvl If you need assistance with FreeBSD UEFI/GPT boot I can help, I am an expert here, I wrote my own FreeBSD UEFI secure-boot setup :)

@dvl I found this. https://www.reddit.com/r/homelab/comments/tcp2rz/dell_poweredge_r730_boot_from_pcie_m2_device/

It is a disaster of a set of instructions, and I doubt you need all of it. Some of the takeaways that seem to be important in my researching is that you may need to use GPT and UEFI booting if you haven't tried it yet, and you may be able to get UEFI/option rom 'platform firmware' for the SSD itself, thus it won't need BIOS support to boot it will have its own firmware.

@dvl I do know that HP has their BIOS PCI ID locked to not boot other people's NVMEs.. so maybe dell is doing that here?
