  • I self diagnosed before getting my formal diagnosis from a doctor. I was a hard yes to like 30 of the 32 signs of adult ADHD in Driven to Distraction.

    At some point it’s kinda a relief to realize that other people are going through the same stuff as you, and start therapy and treatment that are actually catered to your needs since you’ve already tried a million other things and nothing has worked.

    And yeah everybody struggles with executive function and attention sometimes. But like, we all bleed when we’re cut, doesn’t mean haemophilia is fake.






  • So the broken pool is kinda stupid and you shouldn’t do it, you will be running without parity the whole time but if you want to risk it it does work.

    Or… If you have the drives and space, you can combine a bunch of smaller drives with mdadm (assuming Linux but freebsd has geom I think) and then use that as your third drive, then once everything is copied do a zpool replace. That way you keep full parity the whole time.

    Edit: latest version of zfs supports raidz expansion. So you could create a 2 drive raidz1 then copy everything over then expand it. You will still be running your source disk without parity but at least the destination would be safe.
