Because diplomacy, organised protests, and the like to nothing to change things. Eventually only shock and violence will make them listen. History says that critical and drastic change is often proceeded by violence.

Not much. Probably just support for some hardware that needs drivers like my 3d printer. But that’s what Vans are for right. Most other “windows only” apps work fine under WINE. If I have to say one thing: powertoys (some of them)

My thinkpad’s battery is much happier on Linux than windows. It’s hibernate and sleep work as expected. My windows work laptop can’t even wake from sleep properly unless I I open the lid and re plug the dock each time it’s gone to sleep.

I prefer navidrome https://www.navidrome.org/ over Jellyfin for music as I find it much more responsive and it has extra features like smart playlists. Just adding an extra opinion for those interested.

Thanks for posting the update on what you used

Came here to say this. Now I just need to upvote.

For me i keep a local one so if I lose a file or something gets corrupted I can restore locally without any egress costs or network lag. The sync to remote is in case of local data loss for example fire or theft.

Rclone will (should) be faster than doing a restic sync due to not having to do any deduping etc.

B2 is Backblaze’a version of S3. It’s a cloud storage solution. https://www.backblaze.com/cloud-storage/pricing

Restic will encrypt the backup https://restic.readthedocs.io/en/latest/070_encryption.html

And it will backup directly to B2 so not intermediate storage is needed.

https://beets.io/ could do all of that for you.

Second restic or Borg with a rclone sync to storage. Restic will handle both for you though. Borg is an option if you want a local back up that then gets synced (or use restic to do multiple backups)

I use B2 storage and it’s dirt cheap compared to other offerings. You can use rclone to mount the bucket locally and only recover what you need to save on egress costs.

The advantage of restic/borg is not only encryption but snapshots, deduplication, and compression over a simple rsync.

Rsync.net can run a Borg server if you want to back up to that but B2 is much more cost effective.

I guess after the first shot it stopped being “for fun” and more a “fuck you dude” scenario

What were they actually charged with? They both consented to it and neither was injured or pressed charges. Drunk and disorderly?

I use Linkding https://github.com/sissbruecker/linkding which is a clone of pinboard. Not sure if it will work with Samsung browser but I use custom actions on iOS to add links and the web UI to access links

I meant use random.org select the words directly rather than go through the steps of getting numbers and then lookup.

I get the bias. A big weakness in the one time pads from WW2 was the word callers putting words back they thought were too frequent :)

If you haven’t got any dice handy you can use random.org to generate the numbers for you. Or even select a set of words from the list

I use https://wekan.github.io/ for tracking items to repair.

Well happy birthday on the big circle round sun for the first time.

Not unusual but not common is fish sauce on your fried or scrambled eggs.

Linkding which is like pinboard but self hosted. Just because it’s simple. I could do with just using browser sync but hey, I’ve got a server running so I might as well host it

On larger bottles when I pour into a glass the attached lid always swings round. And it’s awkward to hold it wwhile pouring.
