Do this in order:

1. Install with LUKS full-disk encryption and Btrfs subvolumes for @ and @home so snaps are atomic.
2. Enable automatic snapshots with Timeshift or snapper.
3. Export your package lists:
   • Debian/Ubuntu: dpkg --get-selections > packages.txt
   • Arch: pacman -Qqe > pkglist.txt
   • also flatpak list --app > flatpaks.txt
4. Put your dotfiles under version control and manage them with chezmoi or GNU Stow.
5. Use Flatpak for GUI apps, containerized toolchains (podman) for dev environments, and keep only system-critical packages in the distro manager.
6. Back up with Borg: borg init --encryption=repokey /path/to/repo ; borg create repo::$(date +%F) /home /etc --stats ; borg prune --keep-daily=7 --keep-weekly=4 --keep-monthly=6
7. Keep a small, bootable USB with the exact kernel/tools you use so you can unlock LUKS and mount Btrfs snapshots.
8. Test restores quarterly: restore a snapshot to a spare partition and boot it. Do that for a year and tell me reinstalling is fun again.

Would be cool if this federates with Loops

Congrats, nice find :)

Why post something in the first place then?

The other user asked you for more context because they want to understand/ learn from what you've shared.

Your post is missing context.

I go by this definition

Researchers and popular media use the mid-to-late 1990s as starting birth years and the early 2010s as ending birth years, with the generation typically being defined as people born from 1997 to 2012

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generation_Z

So yes

On top of that, people born outside of this range might still share similar cultural experiences, depending on where they grew up, so I'm personally not that strict with the cut offs

If anyone is curious about the actual experiment

Looks good!

I have one suggestion, the white text on bright green on the website is hard to read. Maybe you can pick different colors, or put borders around the characters.

For the people around me, the only people using tablets are students. It's actually very helpful for note taking and I don't think there are any good alternatives to the iPad unfortunately.

2in1 laptops aren't that useful when you need to both type and draw/write

Has the cat's diet changed at all? My understanding is that the allergy has to do with a protein that some cats produce, and it ends up on their fur through the saliva. Certain diets can reduce or eliminate the protein.

I don't have any brands to recommend, but here is the study if it gives you something to go off of

Good point, start from 0 and 1 and remember that the conversion starts to work from 3 miles

That's awesome, I haven't seen many family software projects before.

Looking forward to seeing how it develops!

As for remembering the Fibonacci numbers

In mathematics, the Fibonacci sequence is a sequence in which each element is the sum of the two elements that precede it.

So you need to remember the first two numbers are 3 and 5, and the rest can be extrapolated

3+5=8

8+5=13

Very cool, it's on my list of things to try out at some point

my family and I've been working on

I'm curious what this has been like, if you don't mind sharing 😄 What is each person working on?

It looks like Social is the platform that released v1, and the other ones are still in various stages of development.

https://docs.bonfirenetworks.org/flavours.html#what-is-a-bonfire-flavour

My understanding is that "Bonfire Social" is very similar to Mastodon, with their own way of implementing certain features, and the other features in their funding campaign are still in development

They launched version 1.0 of a platform similar to and interoperable with Mastodon, and they're doing a funding campaign for what projects they will work on next.

Also they have some art for those that participate:

The code is a commons, so art is offered as a reward. This campaign includes a limited‑run, hand screen‑printed artwork by Rocco Lombardi, the artist behind Bonfire’s icon and other illustrations.

Ok that's really cool :D

I can see the detective one being popular. I hope they continue to make more

For me, it's fun being able to identify things correctly. I was playing that color HEX code guessing game for a bit on !dailygames@lemmy.zip, and it's the same feeling.
