10·1 year agoI don’t wanna repeat myself, but: 7840u for the next few years, then I hope RISC V will be mature enough to kick some ass (and that framework releases a board for it).
That’s all I dream of.
Not that I’m aware of, I’m doing the Takeout part by myself.
You can however request the Takeout to be recurring, e.g. once every N months. Or you can just request a one time takeout.
I did the latter just to know how much space it takes, but I’m going for the recurring ones from now on. Google will send you a mail once the Takeout archive(s) is/are ready for download.
Depends on context, IMO did/mm/yyyy is the most natural when writing some text, but partial ISO yyyy-mm-dd is ideal for when naming files and directories, makes lexicographical ordering follow chronological order.
Probably if you Google it or search on the Vorta website.
The short version, after some research, is that Borg is better suited for Linux users as it involves ssh key based authentication to the backup server hosted on borgbase.com.
Whereas restic is maybe simpler to setup if you’re on Windows.
The good news is that, whichever “protocol” you use, borgase.com provides cheap cloud storage supporting both, for as little as 24€/year for 250 GB. It’s the plan I have and it fits comfortably my ~130GB of Google Photos + all the other Gapps exports (~10GB gmail + 15GB gdocs being the biggest offenders after photos).
You can read a lot about this by just Googling Borg vs restic.
Both Borg and restic are just the backend apps, you’ll want a frontend as well, be it a CLI or a separate GUI application. Since I use Borg on Linux I paired it with Vorta, simple GUI and has scheduled backups and alerts you if they haven’t run in a while, plus you can mount your backups to local paths to inspect their contents and extract data selectively.
Dunno if the same is possible with restic, but there are also GUIs for that, for sure.
Enjoy!
Folks, get regular Google Takeouts (you can schedule them) and back them up using something like Vorta + borgbase.com
I tried oh-my-bash with some fancy theme, but went back to plain old bash from my distro since suggestions for autocomplete had suddenly started to lag. Went back to default and it’s as quick as ever to suggest.
I’m not willing to trade efficiency for bells and whistles
So let us know how it went on Thursday, mate.
Otherwise, it’s been nice knowing you 👍🏻
Not bad to be relegated to step-mom roles.
There’s a lot of washing machines to get stuck into.

Was gonna say this. Why TF is list not -l as…everywhere else?
Blame the dealer, not the car.
The Giulia is a very reliable car, actually
I love Firefox and it’s my main browser on laptop and mobile.
But as a KDE user, seriously, fuck it. It’s a mess.
