  • I recall a lot of my peers hosting mail and web servers

    I don't think that's representative of the global population. There's more people streaming movies than hosting private blogs.

  • Syncthing alternatives

    Jump

  • Curious about your point about time conflicts. Doesn't syncthing look at the change on your machine compared to the 'canonical' list also stored on your machine? So even if the timestamp is different, syncthing still detects the change, and the only problem is if the file is simultaneously modified on another machine before being propagated - which would be a conflict anyway.

  • If you ask Syncthing how to do local sync (e.g. to an external HDD), the answer is, use the right tool for the job: Unison.

    If you ask Unison how to do certain things (directory timestamps is the one I miss), the answer is, use the right tool for the job: rsync.

    In the end, it all comes down to rsync.

    P.S. I'm actually gradually migrating up the chain from rsync, having used my own hand-built utility to make convenient rsync commands, but now using syncthing and Unison more.

  • Kind of. That improves your backup safety, but doesn't mitigate all the risks. E.g. if you accidentally delete everything from your backup directory, then all those deletions also happen on the sync'd one.

    [Serious] Jews of Lemmy, what are your family conversations about the war like?

  • I mean, yes, literally.

  • Yeah Haskell is definitely not for nerds. Just too plain and simple.

  • No Gleam either. That's one I'm wanting to try out.

  • Happy to see Julia on the list.

    Apparently I am a nerd. I accept that.

  • I think really it's designed because you're a consumer. Most people consume far more bandwidth than they upload, so asymmetry is more efficient.

  • I really wish everyone would quit discord. Would make my life easier, as I'm not willing to give them a phone number.

  • Right, all these people with mnemonics and whatnot to remember port and starboard; I just remember that port is on the port side when you dock.

    Perhaps for Americans it's harder, seeing as they park on the wrong side of the road.

  • It's almost like a colonial power intentionally divided the region so they'll be focused on infighting instead of competing with said colonial power

  • If the British had never come, I expect the situation would be very different. But I thought we were talking about partition.

  • This is rather naive. Do you think the fighting wouldn't have happened if they were kept as one big country?

  • GNU Taler (a swiss FLOSS alternative to Visa, Mastercard and Paypal) begins operating in Switzerland as Version 1.0 releases

    Jump

  • I don't think they really had that chance. It's there in the docs about it: they implemented receiver accountability deliberately so European governments might be willing to accept it.

  • Thing is, most money is already digitised and tracked. Taler has the genius of giving (hopefully) enough accountability on the receiving end to satisfy tax and counter-fraud, whilst at the same time giving privacy and anonymity to the spender.
