Not sure that framework adds anything here, I host around the same on a RPi5 and a few disks. Instead of ZFS I use lvm2, it's pretty good on the RPi5. ZFS eats up too much RAM for what I use it for there.

ZFS is amazing, used it since around Solaris 10, and yes, loved it for it's NFS capability, had many terabytes at the time on it, back when a terabyte meant a rack of drives! Now those same systems host petabytes, all upgraded in place. Solaris was pretty amazing too.

And china writes a blog entry on substack. And now hacker news and ycombinator are on the Chinese side of things, along with their bots. Downvoting and shadow banning. What else is new?

Ok, now that we did everything their way, can we change it?

No reason why it couldn't have been done in reverse, have a programmer code it while using AI to understand skin cancer.

Absolutely agree. I wonder how many kw get wasted watching YouTube or ticktack?

Actually it's because there isn't enough solar and generation because of previous policies. Check out how Alex Albrecht got screwed doing solar in Los Angeles.
