I started using restic for backups.

Pro:

• Encryption
• Deduplication
• Flexible backup location
• Data integrity checks

Con:

• No good GUI

So is price fixing.

Glad it wasn’t just me that read it that way.

What if I like ellipses…

No. As a general rule with all software, you purchase a license to use the software, not the actual software itself. That being said, GOG and Itch.io can’t yank games that you’ve already downloaded. I don’t know if Steam does or not, but it probably can.

Not the original commenter, but for me it’s a comfortable chair, desk, and computer set up in a quiet room with a door I can close. Nice speakers and/or headphones and a small couch are a plus.

That’s not exactly how it works. There are “territorial waters” which are entirely under the control of the state. And there is the “exclusive economic zone” (EEZ) outside of that, where the state has rights to resources. But the surface is “international waters”. This incident happened in the EEZ.

Here’s another plug for gitea. It’s lightweight, but still has a nice feature set.

I tried hosting GitLab a number of years back, but it was more resource hungry than my host machine could handle well.

Nothing new. Nothing recent. Just people being scared of something because they don’t know how it works or because it’s relatively new.

Major distros have started adopting it in recent years. It’s one of many ways for a distro to manage which services are running. Many of the others are essentially a hodgepodge of shell scripts.

systemd provides a lot of flexibility with service dependencies and logging, amount other things. It has a standard way to have user-scoped services. It’s standardizes filtering logs for specific services.

Yes. I’ve used it to batch convert PNG and jpg to webp.

Check out mogrify. I think it’s installed standard with ImageMagick, and it does wildcard conversions.

Anything Zigbee or Z-Wave.

A third option is KeePassXC. You can set TOTP seeds for entries there.

Do you have a write-up or anything if someone wanted to start building their own?

For organizing and searching the files, I’m using paperless-ngx. It’s worked pretty well for these and for scanned documents.

My issue is getting the PDFs without having to spend time every month manually downloading them.

All solutions that integrate with banking sites I’ve ever encountered were nothing more but ugly hacks, IMHO.

Yup. That’s basically what FileThis provided. A maintained set of ugly hacks to pull the files for you automatically :D.

Sounds like a great design direction to me. I’m excited to see how it turns out.

Honestly, I figured it was one of those things people didn’t talk about because it was useless.

I assumed that was something everyone could do 🤯
