Anything can use it, but I think by convention it's used for http on a non-privileged port.

Not the "trickle down" that we were promised, but at least this trickle down is real?

Same


rsync to a pi 3 with a (single) ZFS drive at family's house. Retain some daily/weekly/monthly snapshots.

I have a (free) VPS with static IPv4 which is how I connect everything.

Both the VPS and the remote site have limited network speed (I think 50Mbps for VPS), so the initial sync was done sneakernet (well..."airplane net"). Nightly rsync is no problem bandwidth-wise, and is mostly just any new videos I've uploaded to my local Immich instance.

When they talk about being the party of Lincoln this isn't what I had in mind...

Sounds like the opposite reasoning may have some truth:

"Cardinal George of Chicago, of happy memory, was one of my great mentors, and he said: 'Look, until America goes into political decline, there won't be an American pope.' And his point was, if America is kind of running the world politically, culturally, economically, they don't want America running the world religiously. So, I think there's some truth to that, that we're such a superpower and so dominant, they don't wanna give us, also, control over the church."

Look, if you don't want to listen to some random dude who thinks reading is cool, fair enough. But if that random dude also runs level three diagnostics on the warp core and can swap polarity on the main deflector dish with one hand tied behind his back? Yeah...you should probably pay attention.

Nah just give them the .tex source and let them deal with it.

It is "backwards" from some other commands


usually you run copy/rsync/link from source to destination, but with tar the destination (tarball) is specified before the source (directory/files).

That, and the flags not needing dashes always just throws me for a loop.

And the icing on the cake is that I don't use tar for tarring that often, so I lose all muscle memory (untaring a tgz or tar.bz2 is frequent enough that I can usually get that right at least...).

There was an old Top Gear episode with a race in a Nordic country with an interesting take on a price cap


the price enforcement was that anybody could buy your car (for no more than the price cap) after the race.

So I think you technically could enter the race with a brand new tricked out rally car...but anyone could buy it for $500/$1000/whatever.
