Those are some beautiful pens. Thanks for sharing.
The first season had the TV execs meddling to make it be like ST:TNG because they wanted to mimic the popular thing at the time.
The writer got his way starting in season 2 and got to tell his story without the meddling.
Yes it gets better is what I’m saying. 🙂
Have the upvote and enjoy.
There are forks of Nix. Perhaps you might like Lix.
I wish business “journalists” would stop calling these 10 year old companies “startups”.
It’s like calling that 10-12 year old kid who was still breastfeeding on Game of Thrones “my baby”.
They did this with Uber, AirBnb, & Spotify as well.
This comic reminds me of the edits people do on short form video like TikTok to make a video end on the same beat that began it.
Not quite the same though. Making a tight loop rather than actual recursion.
Restic seems nice but I don’t have any experience with it so don’t have much to say. Someone else with some experience with Restic might come along though and contribute. :)
That is definitely true. And it is also true that YouTubers and other tech news outlets have been promising that new battery tech will make EVs work just like gas cars and you won’t have to suffer any inconvenience or trade offs. Just wait a few years and all the problems will go away. Or maybe it will be hydrogen again this year.
Meanwhile progress is a slow grind that gets better incrementally every year. Real step changes are pretty rare. But not according to headlines.
I’m happy with the progress and cheer for more. But am going to continue to be skeptical of the “game changers” until they show up in the market and prove themselves out.
I think of it as pablum used to keep people complacent with the status quo. Don’t change, a fix is right around the corner a few years away. Same idea just a different way to say it.
Stories like this crop up around plastics, carbon capture (like @[email protected] said), and batteries. How many stories have you seen about batteries with the term “game changer” in it?
Not making a case for nihilism or apathy. Just healthy skepticism and make the changes you can in the meantime, like reducing single use plastics where you can.
In addition to the recommendations you’re getting already, I recommend learning about Borg Backup. It has great documentation.
Borgmatic is a project that makes automatic backups easier with Borg.
If you want a GUI for your personal machines there is Vorta.
I’ve used Borg for years now and test my restores every year. Which reminds me… I should do that more often. 😅
