You assume I would think you’re wrong. I do not.

Morally, assassination is despicable. But so is fascism.

I applaud you for taking the high road, while I just say Fuck ‘em all. Fascism should not be tolerated, even in a democracy.

It doesn’t require Hitler-level Evil. Just pragmatism.

He did (at least) one good thing in life, and people feel the need to smear him…

As long as the OS was supported, updates were available.

But yes, I loaded a nice Fedora on it… 😉

Overpriced hardware comes with a boon: It lasts longer. I am by no means an apple fanboy, but when I discovered the 12 year old Mac of my dad still performed like mid-range PCs with Windows, I was quite surprised.

Still not buying their hardware though…

Ise kde, not gnome.

Aside from the obvious (company providing all the necessary tools) why not using libreoffice and saving it as M$ excel?

Surprise… Surprise… It’s a snap!

dnf upgrade And package-cleanup --cleandupes Should have fixed it.

You may also want to check up on regulations and laws of your country.

In Belgium, for instance, I am responsible for any and all attacks originating from my PC. If you were hacked and said hackers used your computer to stage an attack, the burden of proof is upon you. So instead of hiring very expensive people to trace the real source of an attack originating from your own PC, enabling a firewall just makes sense, besides making it harder on hackers…

PostmarketOS might be a possibility…

I honestly have no idea. But I discovered it a decade ago when I needed to process a short film. Haven’t touched it since.

Maybe he has yours?

The question is not which tool should I use?

The question is what is it that you want to achieve? That will drive your choice of tools.

I want to mirror my drive can be achieved by a lot of tools. But I want to be able to restore a file I accidentally deleted up to 24 hours with a 1 hour interval is a totally different game.

For backups I am very fond of restic as it does a lot of things in a simple way: encryption, (incremental) snapshots, mounting of said snapshots, support various storage backends, policy based purging, tagging, …

Your tool may not be able to do all you need, like automated scheduled backups, so you will need to also learn cron (or whatever scheduler you may have)

And finally, what about maintenance? What should happen to all those files you’ve synced? How long do you want to keep them?

It’s how dns should have been.

And it is perfect. Now at least I can fork Firefox and not cause issues with the one maintained by mozilla, but have both on my system!

But… Is it?

Do you need a lock on the door of your place?

No, but it’s a damn good idea to protect whatever is in it.
