Bit-breaker working in cybersecurity/IT. Only languages I know are English and Programming ones.
Sometimes I write things about technology.
If I told you the SHA256 for this sentence starts with 'c, 5, four, a, and a', would you believe me?
Amazing list, thanks for sharing.
Seconded. Weechat and Gomuks for matrix chat.
An OS can be restored. Backup your data, so /home
for sure and maybe any custom configs for /etc
, like your wireguard configs. So anything you specifically edited/added for /etc
directory.
When the suggestion is to pirate it, so spotify doesn’t get any money I don’t see how your follow-up comment matters. In either case of piracy, OR using spotify, the artist still doesn’t make money. Problem is that piracy comes with a lot more hoops and headaches.
Of course, buying the artist CD or songs directly is much preferable to either.
at least Spotify won’t make any money from it.
And the artists still won’t. So given in either case, the artist don’t make squat; using Spotify is easier. So, use spotify.
Beehaw isn’t the only instance of Lemmy, nor the only instance in the Fediverse. Sure, the feature being added to Lemmy now, won’t benefit Beehaw. But it would still benefit others. Refusing to work on the features that Beehaw wants out of spite, will definitely hurt other instances too.
Not my circus, not my monkeys
That query by itself in a vacuum is fine. Combined with many other triggers on the DB, and then federating that out before actually deleting from the local DB… well that is what creates all sorts of headaches.
where there’s a tree of people you’ve invited.
And that is how you get singular point of view echo chamber.
What a bad day to have eyeballs.
No.
F-k I’m old…
Username checks out…
And so enshrined is that final nail in the enshitiffication coffin that was Reddit. I give it 3mo before Spez leaves Reddit to focus on [whatever].
Btop is pretty. Htop tells me what I want to know. I prefer htop and it’s my goto.
All I’m saying is that aur has more stuff.
Sure, but that does not equate to the premise you made that Arch is easier to use than Debian.
There’s a lot more going on with restic aside from just that, but yes. So with an rsync of your home dir (for example), it’s reliant on the FS to do compression and deduplication (ZFS,btrs), and/or it will still take up a lot of wasted space. Say you got ransom-wared. It’s okay you have that rsync backup, but oh crap it got ransom-wared to. No more backups to try? Restic gives you snapshots for whatever increment you set and just handles it simply. You can then restore one file from any of the snaphots (history) or every single file. Restoreing 250kb vs 400TB is quite a difference. The benefits of this, are huge even beyond the fire and forget capability.
I mean, rsync handling everything via mirroring and pushed to a ZFS FS, would be sort of the same thing.
Because that serve different purposes. rsync is for moving data around, synchronization of such. It has no concept of point in time restoration, or snapshots (etc) that really define a backup solution. I use restic because its the proper tool for the job.
Clonezilla has its place, but not as a main backup and restoration tool. I personally don’t see it as a backup tool, especially that it operates at partition level for such. What you want is you base install system and file level backups for your data (/home/) etc. For the file level backups, use something like restic. Backup what you need to go from a fresh install to a system with your data back on it. Packages can be reinstalled.
Restic is my primary backup for all my devices. If I need something more than fresh iso -> my data system, I use packer.
Exactly. Windows already has this functionality with runas
and this implantation doesn’t improve on it at all.
I am not sure what you mean.
