RIP

Terriers and Rubicon are my go-to answers for this. I do wonder how they hold up though, it's been a while.

I don't buy a lot of bike paths, but that seems like a pretty good deal.

I'm going to need it to turn those emails back into the bullet points used to create them, so I don't have to read the filler.

I use orgzly on android, Emacs on desktop. Syncthing to sync the files.

That's not really the same thing because 'alt.tv' doesn't aggregate everything under it. Let alone the other relationships they describe (e.g. biochemistry).

You mentioned it, but snapshots are the key. Lvm, btrfs, zfs. Take a snapshot, back it up, delete it.

All the web integrity thing would do is force them to use a specific client when accessing YouTube to scrape their site.

The problem is none of the attested browsers will let you to use them in this way.

We already have DRM for video on the web. I believe it would be a similar problem to getting WideVine L1 content from e.g. Netflix in an open source app.

It's a totally valid approach. Most of the answers in this thread involve booting some non windows thing, and running a tool that will do exactly this behind the scenes.

Edit: there are also a lot of much more terrible answers that involve file-level copying that will definitely not work.

I was just going to post the same thing. I actually split downloading duties with a friend of mine when we both had 1 (or maybe 2?) hr / day on our ISPs.

We even used coloured floppies to colour code the package sets.

Chinese cyberspies exploited a fundamental gap in Microsoft’s cloud

Gap is a very generous alternative to: flaw, vulnerability, etc.

I assume it would only be (properly) encrypted if you set a master password in firefox?

If chrome could bypass the master password, that would be concerning.

Yeah, doing it with the keyboard is key. I know some terminals have a way to do it, but it's so ingrained in my muscle memory that I struggle without it, and having something that works everywhere (including try) is nice.

I didn't see this mentioned, but by far the thing I depend on tmux for the most is being able to quickly copy and paste text from the terminal. e.g. grabbing a file name from the output of git diff. How does everyone else do this?

Another cool one is being able to attach to a session on my phone to check on something, and have it automatically resize without disconnecting my desktop.

Spacemacs here. Been using it so long (and without major problems) that I'm afraid to start experimenting with other distros, or writing my own config.

Since you mentioned slow build times...

You can do nixos-rebuild --target-host to build locally and deploy over ssh. You can also use something like nixops.
