Waaaaay better.

Restic allows you to make dedupe snapshots of your data. Everything is there and it’s damn hard to loose anything. I use backblaze b2 as my long term end point / offsite… some will use AWS glacier. But you don’t have to use any cloud services. You can just have a restic repository on some external drives. That’s what I use for my second copy of things. I also will do an annual backup to a hard disk that I leave with a friend for a second offsite copy.

I’ve been backing up all of my stuff like this for years now. I used to use BORG which is another great tool. But restic is more flexible with allowing multiple systems to use a single repository and has native support for things like B2 that BORG doesn’t.

We also use restic to backup control nodes for some of supercomputing clusters I manage. It’s that rock solid imho.

Yeah that was my thoughts too. It’s not like it can’t be bypassed but it’s not “easy.” This is kinda how I see it going for commercial 3D printers. It’s not a bad thing either. I’ve always been a fan of making people earn dangerous knowledge & skills. Even in fictional universes like Star Trek there’s restrictions on using a replicator to make weapons.

So it’s not unreasonable, imho, to put some kind of guard rails up that force people to actively bypass restrictions in making weapons.

The trick will be telling the difference between making a nerf gun, action figure guns, and an actual weapon. That I don’t see being possible at this time. Too many edge cases that don’t neatly fit.

So when’s the last time you touched some grass? It’s a lovely day outside. Maybe go to a pet shelter and see some puppies? Are you getting enough fiber? Drinking enough water? Why not call a friend and hang out?

That’s what IPFS is for. It’s ideal for that kind of stuff

Following that logic if you’re sovereign then it’s not really a riot or insurrection. It’s another nation engaging in war with another nation. The election wasn’t any of their business to begin with since they’re sovereign.

That “sovereign citizen” just lost a war against arguably the most powerful nation on the globe.

Fucking moron. I hope he’s able to grow and learn from this experience in a positive way. 🤷‍♂️

From what I understand Greg Kroah-Hartman would take over

Add another card, in my case I used a virtual card, then you can remove that card. If you use a virtual card you can invalidate that card when you’re done.

Saw this on a drive through. Did a double take when I realized it was a Gnome desktop!

Meh, realistically I don't think Jon does it because he needs money.

He seems like the kind of person who does things because it's the right thing to do. So taking away his platform isn't going to make him go away or shut him up.

It might take a while for him to get another one but I'm confident this guy will be on his deathbed telling people in power they suck & should do better.

We need more people like him

It’s about damn time!!

Since it’s a work phone they’re responsible for backing it up and managing it. That’s not something you should be doing at all. If they need you to have more than the standard 5G iCloud storage then they can purchase it for your work iCloud account. Don’t backup your work data onto a personal device. If they get sued do you really want to give over your personal computer as evidence? You’re opening yourself to a lot of liability so don’t do that.

Since you’re not going to listen 😂

The short answer is no. Longer answer is use a vm, best answer is use a Mac.

Even though I have a MacBook I don’t use it to backup my iPhone. It’s just not worth it, imo, to spend the time and storage. You can’t even restore it effectively without iCloud either so it kinda defeats the purpose. The only way I could see it being an option to consider is if you have very limited internet access and/or bandwidth.

That’s … actually pretty neat.

Makes a lot of sense given the amount of power needed to run a data centers like that. Definitely cleaner in the long run too.

They’ll still need backup power/generators but they’ll need a lot less of them and they’ll mostly be needed for the nuclear parts.

I think as more gen z enters the workforce we’re going to start seeing more breaches because they’re not going to give a shit when they see someone in the csuite making 1000x what an average person makes. Especially when they can barely afford to eat and need 5 roommates.

If these places want to stop that from happening the best way is to pay your staff EXTREMELY well and setup things like pensions and profit sharing.
