I’ve done the same with businesses that stayed open during Covid lockdowns, especially restaurants. If they don’t care about a global pandemic, they’re probably not handling food properly, following proper cleaning protocols, etc.

This used to be common in “the olden days” in rural America. I remembered the school nurse would hand out the fluoride rinse to students who’s families signed up for it. I remember thonking that they were all the rich kids who’s families could afford the $5/year for their fancy oral hygiene. Well who’s laughing now? I’ve got the most expensive teeth after all my fillings, crowns, root canals and dental surgeries!

Yeah, i’m leaving all the grammatical errors in there; it better illustrates my point.

A link for the uninitiated.

Isn’t this like leaving your team playbook on the hood of your car before the big game? Why can’t or don’t the parties opposing this use it to construct their game plan to systematically remove all the loopholes and methods that this “project” is using to promote their agenda? I’m the furthest thing from a politician, so ELI5.

You have a very interesting point about the muted mics actually being in Trump’s favor while simultaneously allowing Biden to ramble like Grandpa Simpson.

Agreed. How about the other guy? Was anybody inspired by him?

I’m really sad that it’s come to this. It’s how I feel when my coworkers vote to go out to a sushi restaurant. I don’t like fish and I’m allergic to shellfish, so I eat my pile of steamed rice and bite my tongue when they want to split the bill equally.

What was I talking about again?

Isn’t this simply the natural progression of capitalism in action? Everything’s for sale, everything has a price.

I was wondering this same thing. Who would take on a loan that a bank deems unprofitable? Is this like turning the loan over to a loan shark and the shark has means to ensure payment that banks don’t due to regulations? Are they selling to the govn’t? Either option is not good.

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 like this version of the TL;DR.

I appreciate all the comments here, but consider another perspective. If there were a federal crime committed (I’m not following the news very closely) and a president can pardon before a trial is performed, then a pardon from Biden would be a total power move. Given that trump would probably either weasel out of the conviction or it would be a slap on the wrist fine, this puts Biden in a position of power over trump. This would also crush trump’s ego if not publicly, it would eat at him in private.

To MTG: you’re white and white people owned slaves, so you’re directly responsible for slavery.

Whilei agree with you wholeheartedly, I don’t know how without risking job security. I’ve been interviewing for any position that matches my qualifications and is listed as remote even if the pay is reduced, but what message does one person send? Without a concerted effort, the message is weak if it is even heard. At least in my job sector, the C-suite is fully sold that AI will allow a reduction in the workforce and therefore costs and they’re hedging their bet now by reducing the workforce to pay for AI. Unionize? I can’t even sell the idea within my whole family, how could I sell it to a majority of my work peers? I’m not that charismatic. I’ll be the second one to sign up if I do find talk of it at my employer.

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
