#video #interview with #Frondizi. 23'. He says General Poli (?) who ousted him from power came to believe that it was the greatest error the armed forces of #Argentina had made in their #history, and that he maintains good relations with the Church and the armed forces. Lots and lots of anecdotes; he claims five Air Force pilots came to ask him permission to assassinate #Perón, which he denied, saving Perón’s life. Much etc. #politics

"f2fs" is the #Flash friendly #filesystem for #zoned-storage. “F2FS is a file system exploiting NAND flash memory-based storage devices, which is based on Log-structured File System (#LFS). The design has been focused on addressing the fundamental issues in LFS, which are snowball effect of wandering tree and high cleaning overhead.”
