Chaotic noodle

I’ll check it out, thanks!

Okay, thanks!

Yeah, I don’t really need to backup the system, except for a list of installed software, but I guess that’s all included somewhere in ~/.local or whatever, since it’s flatpak homebrew and steam.

Did anything specific break?
I’ll look into vorta, thanks!

On my NixOS and Arch machines I used ZFS snapshots for backups. That’s why I specifically asked for Aurora / Bazzite users.

Question for all Bazzite/Aurora users: what do you use to make backups of your machine?

I’m using Pikabackup to make backups of /home, but I’m not sure if there’s a better way?

yum install -y mint-choc # 😋

I’ve had it at the 27th for a few years in my calendar now, but I have no idea why, lol.

Apparently the official birthday should be August 25th, so maybe I mixed those up?

That look delicious, tysm!

Please don’t reinvent the weel and just install a Turbo Roundabout. It’s much safer for everyone, incuding cars.

Warning: useless use of cat

Just one more lane layer bro, trust me bro.

AGPL 😎

Edit: this looks pretty slick, I’ll keep it in mind next time I need a cache

“Capitalism creates innovation!”
The innovation:

Oh yeah! That one is sick!

Well yes, assuming that:

1. you trust the hardware manufacturer
2. you can install your own keys (i.e. not locked by vendor)
3. you secure your bios with a secure password
4. you disable usb / network boot

With this you can make your laptop very tamper resistant. It will be basically impossible to tamper with the bootloader while the laptop is off. (e.g install keylogger to get disk-encryption password).

What they can do, is wipe the bios, which will remove your custom keys and will not boot your computer with secure boot enabled.

Something like a supply-side attack is still possible however. (e.g. tricking you into installing a malicious bootloader while the PC is booted)

Always use security in multiple layers, and to think about what you are securing yourself from.

And don’t just fork it on GitHub, if the original repo gets deleted, any forks might too.

Also do a git clone locally, or set up a mirror on another host.

Remember: militaries usually buy from the lowest bidder, so anything military-grade is probably low quality.

Also, email isn’t a great medium for communicating securely, since the other party has to be just as mindful about security as you; otherwise it’s basically security theater.

You could try [0-9] instead?

    
awk '/\/dev\/loop[0-9]/ {print}'
