Are you an emacs user?
Try org-roam. It’s a similar system to obsidian, but fully open source. You have all the note taking techniques of org-mode, and all the scripting power of emacs.

Assuming that the disk is of identical (or greater) capacity to the one being replaced, you can run btrfs replace
.

I’d recommend BTRFS in RAID1 over hardware or mdadm raid. You get FS snapshotting as a feature, which would be nice before running a system update.
For disk drives, I’d recommend new if you can afford them. You should look into shucking: It’s where you buy an external drive and then remove (shuck) the HDD from inside. You can get enterprise grade disks for cheaper than buying that same disk on its own. The website https://shucks.top tracks the price of various disk drives, letting you know when there are good deals.
I live in a progressive urban area far from the Southern US. I can think of at least 2 different stores near me that sell groceries and ammunition. From my experience, groceries + ammo is pretty common for many big-box stores in the suburbs.
As an emacs user, I use M-x man
. All my standard keybindings make finding what I need very easy.
Of course, it’s not so fast if you aren’t already in emacs.
What you’re looking for is a revocation key. You can generate one in GPG at the same time that you generate your identity key. The method of securing it is up to you. In your example, a simple way would be to encrypt it with the 5 sequential keys. Or you could break the revocation key up into K parts with Shamir’s secret sharing algorithm.
This example assumes that you’re using existing Web of Trust PKI to manage your public keys: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/59664526/how-the-correct-way-to-revoke-gpg-on-key-server#62644875
“Remember: No PID”
Haven’t used it yet, but I’ve been researching authentik for my own SSO.
Oh, judicial duels have always been bad, tending to favor the wealthy who can afford training. The pistol duel was once considered egalitarian because you were just as likely to miss your opponent regardless of how much you trained. For most of the 20th century (until the 90s) Uruguay had legalized dueling. It was mostly used by politicians and the powerful to muder journalists and lawyers who “defamed” them.
But if we are already living in a period where the rich act with impunity anyway, I want a world where there’s a nonzero chance that we get to watch Elon Musk take an estoc to the face because of a twitter argument.
Grand journeys to far off lands. The kind of journey where someone who is “exotic” and personable can make a life for themselves by being the court foreigner.
Also: Judicial duels. They are unjust, unethical, and unproductive, but damn if I don’t want to see white collar criminals have to fight the selected champion of all the folks they ripped off. Of course, being a billionaire would probably buy you a pretty good champion yourself, so we’d also have to bring back old concepts of honor to compel them to represent themselves.
BTRFS should be stable in the case of power loss. That is to say, it ought to recover to a valid state. I believe the only unstable modes are RAID 5/6.
I’d recommend BTRFS in RAID1 mode over mdadm RAID1 + ext4. You get checksumming and scrubs to detect drive failures and data corruptions. You also have snapshotting, in case you’re prone to the occasional fat-fingered rm -rf
.
For backup, maybe a blu-ray drive? I think you would want something that can withstand the salty environment, and maybe resist water. Thing is, even with BDXL discs, you only get a capacity of 100GiB each, so that’s a lot of disks.
What about an offsite backup? Your media library could live ashore (in a server at a friend’s house). You issue commands from your boat to download media, and then sync those files to your boat when it’s done. If you really need to recover from the backup, have your friend clone a disk and mail it to you.
Do you even need a backup? Would data redundancy be enough? Sure if your boat catches fire and sinks, your movies are gone, but that’s probably the least of your problems. If you just want to make sure that the salt and water doesn’t destroy your data, how about:
This would probably be cheapest and have the least complexity.
I wouldn’t trust anything like that to the open internet. It would be better to access the system over a VPN when you’re outside the network.
Barony is fun as hell. Engine is FOSS, but the default game assets require purchase.
You’ve laid out one potential development cycle: FOSS from the get-go, and open collaboration welcome.
However, that’s not the only way that a FOSS game might be developed. The code could be freely licensed, but the upstream developers refuse to accept outside patches. In that case, there’s one “original” and then if you don’t like it, build your fork.
Alternatively, a game could be developed entirely in-house under proprietary licenses, and then only made FOSS upon commercial release. Contributor patches could improve the project, but conception of the game would be entirely the domain of its original developers.
How about writing a script to automate the deletion, thus minimizing the chance of human error being a factor? It could include checks like “Is this a folder with .git contents? Am I being invoked from /home/username/my_dev_workspace?”
In a real aviation design scenario, they want to minimize the bullshit tasks that take up cognitive load on a pilot so they can focus on actually flying. Your ejector seat example would probably be replaced with an automatic ejection system that’s managed by the flight computer.
If you haven’t done so already, you can make transactions private by default.
This page walks through the math to derive a Canadian mortgage cost:
https://www.mikesukmanowsky.com/blog/a-guide-to-canadian-mortgage-calculations
Apparently in Canada, mortgage interest may compound semi-annually, which might explain the difference.
Using the math on that page, I derived a monthly interest rate of 0.0041239 on your example loan. When multiplied by the principal of $100,000 I got a first-month interest fee of $412.39
On Linux, I run
fwupdmgr
to periodically check for firmware updates. Not every manufacturer supports it yet, but I’ve had good results with a few laptops. Not sure if it supports BIOS.Also though, I generally try to leave my BIOS alone if everything is working fine. Unless I hear of a reason to update, I’d rather stay on a stable version.
