    Copy on write is likely to introduce significant performance decreases in cases where large or medium size files have a couple bytes changed. It’s usually recommended to turn CoW off on those files; I found it to be more hassle than it’s worth for a root filesystem. It is still a reasonable file system for file storage that looks more like archival - files land there and seldomly or never change. If you don’t have a specific need in mind though, I wouldn’t bother - in my opinion, it’s not great as a general purpose filesystem.

    "The bill would allow cities to set minimum wages that exceed the state’s $10.10 per hour, a rate that could grow to $13.03 this year, depending on the outcome of a case pending before the Michigan Supreme Court. A total of 44 states, including Michigan, have passed laws barring local labor laws since 1984, according to an analysis by the liberal think tank Economic Policy Institute."

    what constitutes an appropriate “need”? Those folks buying a pi to self host a server at home (that may not get much use) are learning and toying around, which is a core goal of the raspberry pi foundation, is it not?
