I have internal RAID1s that store at least two directories apart from any OS or home dev.

…/repos …/misc

Misc contain timestamp fstabs, mdadm.conf, rust/python/apt user-inatalled package names, among other notes and small files.

I also sync my master org directory between my documents snapshots and the repos dir

FLOSS is dumb because it’s too good for us. I haven’t paid for software in ten years. And I could use this great stuff to build bad stuff.

That’s why I refuse to use Linux. It enables a front end of tech stacks for morons to profit from, and sell ideas like state surveillance, AI worker displacement, and other boogey monster tech to audiences gooning for tech to profit from, instead of honoring the purity of open source and what it enables creative young folk to do with it.

FLOSS didn’t radicalize me to create, it radicalized me about worker rights.

If it’s radioactive, that’s because of a fundamental assumptive imbalance in the contract between the author, the community, the users, the stakeholders, and the parasitic lawyers and their overlords.

If they don’t like it, pay/license and/or contribute.

du-dust is a Rust crate, high performance disk usage tool. Scans terabytes in seconds.

No, Linus will blacklist your MAC address on your next update. Traitor.

Hi, request for comment: how do you feel about GNU guix? Is this the future of package management we wanted?

I’ve used RedHat and Ubuntu and Arch primarily because of the package ecosystem, and security is definitely major concern for most sysadmins (I am not one).

Is guix going to be the future? Thanks

Tails is a great way to get the NSA on your thumb drive too. Bonus: download more RAM usage.

Imagine a toaster with an Archbtw ™ logo on the side, but instead of toast you have floppy diskettes.

You can save tons of time by adding aliases to your .gitconfig such as ‘ga $fname’ (where “fname” would be files you want to add) the alias for git add. You can also do the same thing with gc, gs, etc and if youre like me and you write dozens of lines of code a day, it can save you a lot of time.

Why not Pop!_OS with vanilla Gnome3 and Wayland? It runs snappy and you don’t need the experimental Cosmic desktop.

What management seems as innovation should result in lost heads. Their lost heads. Fire those people.

Thanks for cross posting.

Dear Jeff,

love your channel.

I think the biggest gift of Jeff’s channel and others like it in the DiY space outshines far above corporate darlings like LMG and others. The reason I think this about Jeff’s channel is that it is a gift of education on how to relay opinions, media, and data ownership in a world dominated by EULAs and advertising.

What Google and Tech don’t understand is that the content created on those platforms truly isn’t theirs. It may be monetized on those platforms, but the second they start doing things, like feeding digests of political content and reactions to subvert the people and their free speech, the platform becomes part of the digital handcuffs, the “free as in beer” solution that subverts the conversations and the people.

Moreso than LMG or anyone else adjacent in the tech YouTube space, Jeff’s bright smile and your good attitude brings something to the table that these corporations can’t comprehend the value behind: freedom from popularity contents. Freedom from censorship and platform lock-in.

Thanks.

Thousands, you say? gasp
