I started using restic for backups.

Pro:

• Encryption
• Deduplication
• Flexible backup location
• Data integrity checks

Con:

• No good GUI

So is price fixing.

Glad it wasn’t just me that read it that way.

What if I like ellipses…

Under the bed

No. As a general rule with all software, you purchase a license to use the software, not the actual software itself. That being said, GOG and Itch.io can’t yank games that you’ve already downloaded. I don’t know if Steam does or not, but it probably can.

Here’s another plug for gitea. It’s lightweight, but still has a nice feature set.

I tried hosting GitLab a number of years back, but it was more resource hungry than my host machine could handle well.

Nothing new. Nothing recent. Just people being scared of something because they don’t know how it works or because it’s relatively new.

Major distros have started adopting it in recent years. It’s one of many ways for a distro to manage which services are running. Many of the others are essentially a hodgepodge of shell scripts.

systemd provides a lot of flexibility with service dependencies and logging, amount other things. It has a standard way to have user-scoped services. It’s standardizes filtering logs for specific services.

Yes. I’ve used it to batch convert PNG and jpg to webp.

Check out mogrify. I think it’s installed standard with ImageMagick, and it does wildcard conversions.

Anything Zigbee or Z-Wave.

A third option is KeePassXC. You can set TOTP seeds for entries there.

Do you have a write-up or anything if someone wanted to start building their own?

Sounds like a great design direction to me. I’m excited to see how it turns out.

The only option I can think of is some sort of privacy-preserving cryptocurrency or physically mailing cash. Every other method I can think of would have your real name attached to it.

It took some digging, but here’s a link to the actual paper: https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2304318120

Yeah, I’m wondering the same. Maybe it’s helpful for containerized apps or something?

Anyone else have any insight on this?

A dot files repo for some basic config and an Ansible repo to stand everything up. This applies to both my Linux and MacOS machines.

All the people taking about their NixOS setups had me thinking of giving that a try, though.
