Love it! I just recently started using Syncthing and may implement what you've outlined here. As a fellow paranoid, what mechanism are you using for the separate backup?

For my own ultra-secure (offline) storage, I use a strong password for a KeepassX DB stored on a LUKS-encrypted USB drive that's only plugged in when needed. Layers are the way to go ;)

Hmmm... I haven't taken a look at what the raw DB file looks like but I imagine it wouldn't be too hard to differentiate from the other files if looking at the bytes on disk. Food for thought...

Lots of people give a crap, myself included. Why would I run a resource hungry browser process with a huge attack surface and support for dozens of protocols, plugins, etc for the entire length of the transfer just to download some files? F

Blizzard used (uses?) it to distribute patches for WoW. Back in the day the patches were quite large (multi GB) compared to available bandwidth at the time.

I love the idea and have been wanting a good OSS YT alternative for some time now. My initial impression from looking at the code and browsing the demo site is that this project is very much in it's infancy and has a long way to go bef

I use Taskwarrior ( https://taskwarrior.org/ ) because it's digital, simple, customizable and open-source. Gives me just enough flexibility without complicating things. It's a shell-based tool which makes it very po

Specific to k8s would mean it only affects k8s, which is false. It affects a large group of systems, of which k8s is one. Better (more accurate) title would have been: "Merging complicated software systems made my latency 10x higher&qu

Very misleading title, was hoping for a more substantive read. Kubernetes itself wasn't causing latency issues, it was some config in their auth service and AWS environment. In the takeaways section, the author blames the issue on merg

Very slippery slope, friend. Practically anything can be construed as political views and/or speech. You're asking for a police state. Free speech protects you from the government, not your peers.

You do know that the rate we're replacing humans with machines far outstrips what we've previously seen, right? As in, this time around it's happening much quicker and is much more widespread compared to the first time around

Completely agree. As a Linux power user I get a sort of smug satisfaction reading about problems like these. That said, I do wish others had more choices than a convenient OOTB experience that exploits users and a respectful experience that

I definitely agree the tooling for modern JS can be a huge PITA. Once it's all setup life is great and productivity soars but I completely sympathize with beginners feeling lost and even experienced devs turned off from the opaque comp

I too have been using react professionally for the last 5 years and I have the opposite take on it - I still love it as much as when I started using it. I'm a solo dev so I get to control quality end-to-end, perhaps this is where our d

Whistleblowing for one, though legality is questionable I suppose. To me this falls under the more general premise of fighting back against a (perceived or otherwise) tyrannical govt or organization, a very grey legal area.

Can confirm. Though it doesn't really bother me personally - I think I actually prefer this behavior and don't consider it a bug.

Eating a lot of protein is definitely necessary but not sufficient to get ripped. You absolutely are what you eat - literally (though it's true not everything is digested and absorbed).
