Take a look at Restic Not the easiest, but so far as proven to be reliable and performant

The issue is that anyone who looks objectively at the technology knows that AI / LLMs can’t replace knowledge workers in a large set of tasks, yet you see week after week… month after month the pattern

• Some new company says going to replace x% of employees with AI…
• X weeks / months later… said company reports the attempt was a failure and are having to hire people back

It is as the thought of saving the money of firing all those people is too much to resist for “top management”.

You would think after the first batch of companies go through the same, other companies would learn, yet I just keep seeing the same happen again and again.

There is also the potential backslash. Specially if “management” is dumb enough to try and present firing hundreds / thousands of people like a a good thing… for example Duolingo’s case

Have not tried opencloud yet, but one thing that I find interesting is that it doesn’t need a DB. Plan to test. Currently have nextcloud and find the installation a bit of a pain.

Have you considered a distributed filesystem such as GlusterFS or DRBD? I believe those support synchronous replication so writes will go to all the configured machines before acknowledging the write. Performance will likely take a hit the greater the number of clusters in the cluster.

Remember wifi can be an issue, even if you don’t have anything exposed outside. If you have a router that comes with a weak password ensure you have changed it.

And post as much disinformation as they want without “censorship”.

I use it to track everything…

The great thing about Obsidian is how flexible it is. The bad thing about Obsidian is how flexible it is… 😀

I have seen may people comment, or outright leave, Obsidian because because there was too much to learn… or too many plugins to explore…

Personally, I only look for plugins if I need something specific. Don’t see the point of trying random plugins. Is like spending time finding solutions to a problem you may not have…

Also, I work on tech and many documents are in markdown. Obsidian makes it easier to read those. Specially the collapse / expand functionality is really great for exploring large docs… as long as the creators properly used sections (basically # for level 1, ## for level 2…and so on)

I use Obsidian between Ubuntu and IOS… Sync is a bit erratic… It always… eventually, refreshes, but have not been able to find how to force sync on IOS. Sometimes end up doing trivial changes to see if can get the sync on IOS to trigger.

Ubuntu client shows when it does sync and it does appear to do it fairly quick.

Obsidian with paid sync feature. Have obsidian on multiple computers and devices and don’t have to deal with setup or management of the sync process.

community for commercial sysadmin type stuff, but the ones I’ve seen are all pretty dead Why not just start putting links / posts to make those active. I am planning to do this for a Postgresql feed.

I think we will need a few more lawsuits such as Apple has agreed to pay $95 million to settle a lawsuit alleging that its virtual assistant, Siri, recorded users’ conversations without their consent before this is no longer treated as confirmation bias or people been paranoid.

My wife used to tell me that her adds would change after discussing something and at first I did not believe her, but it just kept happening again, and again. It reached the point that we would put our phones away, discuss something and there is no change in ads about the topic. If we had our phones near adds would change.This would happen on things that we would not see adds for normally. For example we would discuss a trip to a place we have never been and she would start seeing adds about the destination after that.

I can’t even think of any valid reason why Udemy would need GenAI. Closed my account. This is the type of behavior I will not accept from a company. If enough people stood up to the Reddit’s and Udemy’s of the world they may, … maybe, be more responsible towards their users and their partners (in this case the people posting courses in Udemy).

I have been using Vivaldi for about half a year and so far it is working well for me. Originally moved to it due to it’s privacy features, but finding other areas quite useful too such as workspaces

If you just do a search for <cpu1 model> vs <cpu2 model> often times you get pointed to sites that can do that comparison for you.

For example searching for: J5005 vs i3-1115G4

gave me several links one of which was Intel Core i3-1115G4 vs Pentium Silver J5005 - UserBenchmark

There were several other sites with similar headers.

As for best one for Docker, that too you can search. Specially if you use something like perplexity.ai and you ask which of those two is better for docker it gives you a nice comparison along with which areas one is better than the other as it pertains to using Docker. Suspect you can get similar good info from using any Large Language Models (LLM) like ChatGPT or Claude.ai (both of which have free plans)
