I’m using tailscale (which I hear is just a wrapper for wireguard) and love it.

Restic and Borg seem to be the current favorites, but I really like the power and flexibility of Duplicity. I like that I can push to a wide variety of back ends (I’m using the rsync), it can do synchronous or asynchronous encryptions and I like that it can do incremental with timed full backups. I don’t like that it keeps a local cache of index files.

I back up to a Pi 0 with a big local disk and rsync the whole disk to another Pi at a relative’s house over tailscale. I’ve never needed the remote, but it’s there.

I’ve had to do a single directory restore once and it was pretty easy. I was able to restore to a new directory and move only the files that I clobbered.

I’m guessing it’s how you need to put everything in traffic light colors to not confuse the pointy haired people. Red = bad, Yellow = warning, Green = good.

I worked through college doing landscaping for new construction in the Midwest. I don’t know about all the rest of the stuff here, but we spent most of our work to put a 2’ plastic barrier all around the house. In some situations we’d put in a French drain around the house, too. Later on, I figured out that we needed to cover the gap from the backfill so that the water would at least start it’s journey moving away from the house. We’d also mound up the dirt next to the house because it would settle.

I see the new cheap “nationwide” builders now will sod right up to the house and in talking with the homeowners, they all have an active sump and worry about finishing off the basement for that one time that the sump doesn’t keep up.

Good luck with your project.

This is a great thing. I didnt know that Walmart was doing it, I have only heard of local grocers in Europe doing this.

You’re probably correct. I guess I only do this with right click, copy of URLs.

Old timer here! As many others replying to you indicate, Ctrl+C means SIGINT (interrupt running program). Many have offered the Ctrl+Shift+C, but back in my day, we used Shift+Insert (paste) and Ctrl+Insert (copy). They still work today, but Linux has 2 clipboard buffers and Shift+Insert works against the primary.

As an aside, on Wayland, you can use wl-paste and wl-copy in your commands, so git clone "$(wl-paste)" will clone whatever repo you copied to your clipboard. I use this one all the time

I read a paper a few years ago that basically said that food insecurity is not a problem with production, but is instead a problem with distribution. The USA throws away enough food to feed another good sized country. I don’t know the exact nature of the distribution problem and whether it’s a problem of resources or something else, like s political problem.
