I think the point with all of these is that they are "cloud"-based. Except instead of the cloud being someone else's computer, it's your own. Let's take Immich, for example. Sure I could keep all my photos on my phone. But what if I lose or break my phone? What if I have an actual camera with an SD card and I want to offload those photos? Self-hosting lets me keep a backup. I can set up a server with redundant drives that itself backs up to a server in another location with its own separate drives. Thus, I have my own safe cloud storage.

To be clear, Trump's stance on Gaza is just the same, if not worse than hers. Everyone who sat out on principle did zero thinking about this and shot themselves in the foot and gave the rest of the Palestinians a death sentence.

In short, he said he'd "finish the problem," crush pro-palestine demonstrations, and that once it's rebuilt, Gaza "could be better than Monaco."

Edit: All these links are from before the election. There's been even more he's said since then.

You're leaving outthe part where he put the hard drive in a trashbag in the hallway

For those who've never heard the full story, Howells had two 2.5-inch hard drives stored in a drawer in 2013, one of which he intended to get rid of and another that had a digital wallet with 7,500 Bitcoin. He put the drive containing the crypto in a black trash bag during an office sort-out and left it in the hall of his house. His partner assumed it was there to be thrown away, so she took the bag to the local landfill, where it's been ever since.

Definitely hide so that they can't complete their quest of meeting all the people.

Many libraries and senior centers have programs to help seniors with tech. If he has an iPhone, then the Apple store is a good option too.

That's the joke

I don't think that's possible if they don't have a working boot drive.

[–] MeepMorp@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Oh I see now. You should be able to import them. Worst case is you can't then you're back where you are now. There shouldn't be any data loss.

Yeah. As far as I understand it, exporting is more of a config thing. You can shut down your system asd boot it while missing drives (done this by accident) and boot while missing, and it'll say there's an issue with it. Shut down, pop the drives back in and you're good to go on boot.

[–] MeepMorp@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago (7 children)

You can just drop in a new boot drive and install from a usb. I do recommend setting up a boot pool mirror though. This way if one goes down, you have a spare that can be used to help recover more quickly.

I always use R! Sometimes I sprinkle in some Rcpp (c++ with extensions for interacting with R objects).

Someone in the YouTube comments did a deep dive and found out it wouldn't have changed anything. In the worst case for Andy, he would've been bumped down to third for the task and still won overall.
