Use Borg, and copy the whole image. Borg will compress and deduplicate it, so you only backup the changes each time. You'll get point in time historical backups, so if you accidentally delete stuff, you can find it again. Useful becaus

I use a ThinkPad T14s after my X1 Carbon fell apart. The thicker chassis makes it more reliable for travel, and the Ryzen CPU can play most Xbox games pass games fine. If you don't need Linux then the new Macs seem pretty amazing thoug

I have a bad habit of looking at Reddit users' comment histories (hey, it's public) and a not insignificant number of them are investing in stuff like Shiba coins, not to mention GameStop and AMT shares. Having a typical (non tech

I don't know, it's just a Unicode character? Not even a newer one, it's just 2 utf8 bytes. Pretty much everything should support that in 2021. When I think of 100 things I think of stuff like "some people spell their nam

Weird timing considering the community is actually dying right now - lots of talented people have left recently and many of my pro-Perl friends have stopped using for good.

I'd prefer that. But I guess that's why I'm not an apple customer

OCD sufferers prefer to call that OCPD. Being bothered by stuff like that is nowhere near as serious as real OCD which can be traumatic and life ruining.

People who really want it will pay for it, I know a few. There isn't really any competition.

I call it JSONL but yeah it's super useful. The ability to split and join using standard Unix tools, or just pipe through GNU parallel for automatic speedup without any boilerplate code

Of course it's calculated. Try putting Chrome/Google search on a fresh install of Windows and see how many times you are one click away from being reverted back to Edge/Bing. It must be over a dozen
