World of Goo is a totally awesome puzzle game. Brilliant design, brilliant music, brilliant interface, and just plain, perfect 2D fun. Exactly the same pattern as Lemmings or Chu Chu Rocket.

I took a stab at ZFS on my MacBook Pro, using MacOSForge r119 read/write version, as a pkg. As I don’t have any spare hardware to put a new filesystem on, I used a simple file. Oh I love Unix. This way: dd if=/dev/zero of=zfs.disk bs=1m count=100 zpool create somename /Users/lloeki/Sandbox/zfs/zfs.disk put in some file with the finder zpool export somename zpool import -d...
