Michael Shear advises us not to play poker with David Gates and POTUS, Barack Obama. Both men are laughing with the White House Correspondents at a Sunday party but hours after they are part of the national security team who are going to watch a raid to kill America's Public Enemy no. 1, Osama bin Laden. A strike team made up of Intelligence officers from the CIA and US Navy SEALS landed by helicopter in a sprawling compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan. They killed four other people plus Osama bin Laden. They identified him through photographs and DNA test. They took his body and buried him at sea. News of al queda's leader's death was answered with a collective sigh of relief not just by Americans but by the world.

After the thousands of lives lost in invading Iraq and Afghanistan, it was old fashion detective work, interrogations and high tech surveillance which led Americans to Osama bin Laden inside Pakistan.
I first encountered the problem after a routine update / upgrade of the
system. Well there was a kernel upgrade and I have not checked how many
old kernels are still left for backups in /boot. Apparently, there was
a few and the partition is 85% full. Every software update included a
warning because of the restriction in disk space. Also, zfs could not
create snapshots. It is also full. This is not very clear to me.
Snapshots were suppose to be diff copies so why would it take up a
large space. Most of the snapshots are less than 2MB. Or 0MB.

to the next. Peaks for 5-6 seconds then on to the next CPU. This forced
me to download Clementine and Audacious. But both applications do not
find the zfs pool or don't show the zfs structure. Why not? My final
solution is to reinstall Rhythmbox via snaps. I re-scanned the music
