ipfs + the cloudflare gateway is great for that, I use it for sharing files here. You don't even have to install anything and can use EG: https://anarkrypto.github.io/upload-files-to-ipfs-from-brows...

Better arguably would be to use a generator or continuation.

I don't edit binaries (or if I do the edits are always saved in a new file) so I just need a full archive of them. Syncthing is overkill for this so eventually I moved away from it and now only a couple of my machines have it running.

You're definitely allowed to use the internet but there are very strict rules on data collection. I think the intent is to keep people under 13 from using the internet socially or being exposed to the data collection/PR/ad ma

For those of you in need of an immediate drop-in replacement that won't tie you to an organization which will do the same thing a decade from now: Syncthing[1] is awesome. It's all FOSS, peer to peer, you're limited by your o

Thanks for the tip. I think the fundamental disagreement here is on the definition of usability. Perhaps something like the product of ergonomics and discoverability? Cluttered UIs are visually distracting and harder to learn but the lack o

I'd argue that the optimal configuration is really a compromise; use sub modules with a dvcs tool like git. You get the organizational benefits of monorepos with the isolation benefits of individual repos. Your branches go stale in wee

Interesting, in my experience GTK3+ apps have worse usability issues (especially on touch screen devices.) EDIT: I can't reply to your comment so I'll write the reply here. Yes, on paper GTK3+ sounds like it would be more touch de

I've become convinced that the same things that make GNU/Linux good for us are exactly the same things that make normal people dislike it. Freedom means responsibility, in this case the freedom to configure your computer means the

Absolutely but most of the knowledge translates, it's the procedures that differ.

I wish there was a way to make Gnome respect the Xresources colors (even if it's by just generating a theme periodically.) All my Xlib/Xt/tk apps have a nice dark solarized color scheme but the moment I open a GTK app I'

In fact, if you're using Linux on your workstation you'll use the same skills locally as you do on the VPS/bare metal (depending on your scale.) Arguably "cloud" services need more sysadmin skills, not less.

IRC has logs for history, they're fast and you can run your own logger to control the retention policy if you want. These heavy weight IM tools have extremely short log retention (months) and searching through the logs is extremely s

I could be wrong (I never really got into gaming as GMA950+Linux was an exceptionally bad combo for it) but I thought source was exclusively DirectX back then.
