I agree with you. The other people in this thread are quick to judge and could stand to learn from some of the wisdom in the shows about which they have such strong feelings.
I like rsnapshot, run from a cron job at various useful intervals. backups are hardlinked and rotated so that eventually the disk usage reaches a very slowly growing steady state.
primary difference between a computer and a phone in this regard is that old comouters can perfectly well run modern Linux. with a phone, you're lucky to have root at all so good luck updating it yourself.
is it counting android as linux?
if so, it shouldn't be, imo. android is deployed and used differently than Linux and is not really the same in spirit. if you can't have root, I'd not count it as Linux for the purposes of something like this.
UDP hole punching could be regarded as a clever "hack"
it's amazing that you've been downvoted for saying you pay for a service you use that's not ad-riddled junk. how else do people expect these entities to make money that pays for servers, employees, etc.? someone operates the hardware and it's not free.
another tool is taxation. example: single use plastics are a bad thing and we don't need them in most of the ways they're used. taxing them will make them economically untenable and companies will look for alternatives.
right but if you keep participating in broken systems you'll just perpetuate them. gotta find ways out and take them... or make them.
that's not necessarily what it means. some things legitimately are easier to explain in person. ever try working out a complicated mathematical argument in an email? one can do it, but it's not pretty. in person you can write on paper, draw figures, etc., synchronously with your compatriot observing and even participating. it's not merely a change of medium from text to sound.
syncthing works on every device and substitutes for cloud storage services. pictures taken with a phone end up quickly in the shared folder on my desktop. etc.
can't say I've ever done this. better to figure out why it's broken and fix it so that the next time I encounter that kinda problem, I can fix it quickly.
so write a Makefile that calls kubectl!
