I wouldn’t backup the volumes directly. Better to use the mount points as you suggest then back up those mounted directories. If it’s a database that usually needs to have its records exported into a backup friendly format. Typically I will do a db dump from a cron job in the host system to summon a script inside a container which writes to a mounted dir which is the thing that I back up.

It was completely broken at launch. Not like funny jank, like crash to desktop and wait for the devs to finish the unfinished game.

But in the year where no mans sky released I can understand if its hard to recall mafia3

Looks cool. After the shitshow that was mafia3 I’ll be waiting to see if they actually finish the game before selling it this time around.

That’s awesome - well done.

I can hear the ‘just use Linux/BSD/etc.’ crowd already clamoring in the comments, and will preface this by saying that although I use Linux and BSD on a nearly daily basis, I would not want to use it as my primary desktop system for too many reasons to go into here.

Still though.

That’s a good point - I think I have a USB SSD case somewhere

I tried on docker but couldn’t get the USB Z wave to pass through. Simpler for me to let it live on the pi (until the SD card dies and I forget how any of the HA config works and have to do it all again)

Both, I think? Respecting the craft and expertise of the way we used to do things is important, but the author is being melodramatic and I wanted to poke some fun.

That’s wildly incorrect and somehow serves to underscore the original point.

Scribes were not glorified photocopiers; they had to reconcile poorly written and translated sources, do a lot of research on imperfect and incomplete information, try to figure out if the notes in the margin should be included in future transcriptions, etc. Their work required real subject matter expertise, training and technique, was painstaking and excruciating, and many hand written manuscripts are absolutely works of art.

The thing I hate the most about the printing press and its ease of access: the slow, painful death of the scribe’s soul—brought not by war or scarcity, but by convenience. By type. By machines. […]

There was once magic here. There was once madness.

Monks would stay up all night in candlelit scriptoriums with bloodshot eyes, trying to render illuminated manuscripts without smudging their life’s work. They cared. They would mix pigments from crushed beetles just to see if they’d hold. They knew the smell of burnt parchment and the exact angle of quill where their hand would cramp after six hours. These were artists. They wrote letters like master craftsmen—full of devotion, precision, and divine chaos.

Now? We’re building a world where that devotion gets mechanized at the door. Some poor bastard—born to be great—is going to get told to “review this Gutenberg broadsheet” for eight hours a day, until all that wonder calcifies into apathy. The scriptorium will become a print shop. The quill a lever.

I just get happier with each passing month that I don’t use windows anymore. The freedom of having my hardware and data no longer serving the corporate interests of the operating system vendor is great.

It was the friends we made along the way

Beatsaber has a good soundtrack

The switch already results in online ban if you play an online game with a hacked console, which they need to do to protect against cheaters.

Yeah that’s illegal. It’s the customers hardware once they buy it. Still gonna hack it like every Nintendo console before.

wow the ratio on those posts

at least they didn’t “slam” it - PLTR might not have survived

Id just grow chilis and make hot sauce. Probably switch to arch and find an open source project to contribute to for scratching the tech itch.

Dude that’s awesome
