When I was a kid we used to collect "sea glass"

It wasn't until later that I learned it was just trash that looked pretty because it had been there a while

My code may be stroganoff, but it's my stroganoff

I really love Kopia.

I mostly use it for cloud backups but it also works great for local/network storage as well.

It's really fast and efficient, supports cutting edge encryption and compression algorithms and the de-duplication and file-splitting features will let you generate frequent snapshots while costing you minimal storage.

Snapshots are also effortless to mount and it even supports error correction to protect against bit-flipping and other long-term storage risks.

It's also cross-platform and FOSS.

De-duplication prevents duplicate bits of data from being stored twice. Even if they are different file names or even synced from different systems.

The rolling hash/file-splitting means if you modify a 25GB file and only change a couple MB then only the changed couple MB will need to be stored. This means you can spend a month modifying small parts of a massive file thousands of times and avoid storing a new 25GB file thousands of times to archive those changes.

hundreds of dollars worth of equipment

More like thousands, Hue is way overpriced

USB-C was finalized 2 years later so the decade of Lighting e-waste is still on Apple for holding out as long as they did.

Maybe instead of designing a whole new Lightning connector they should have been pioneers and been one of the first to make a USB-C phone.

Just be an immigrant and Desantis will use taxpayer money to illegally traffic you over state lines!

Sure but most USB-C Android devices can at least manage USB 3.0 speeds

UGC = User-generated content

Not sure how that could mean anything except the ability to block users/posts

At least then there will be no more confusion over who's fault it is when your iPhone doesn't charge as fast as you'd like.

It's always been Apple's fault, but now there will be no more saying it's because Lightning is somehow better.
