X11 can render individual windows (Xclients) through the network on another Xserver since decades. With XPRA you can even buffer them, to move them from one Xserver to another or make sure they survive network disconnect. It’s very cool, but not widely used.

it goes through an SSH tunnel

it’s actually called history-search-backward . it’s configured in /etc/inputrc or ~/.inputrc . if you type the first few characters of a command in your shells history, then type page-up (that key on the keyboard; if configured for page-up, which is common), it searches the most recent command that started that way. press again for the second recent. i’m using it so much, i got used to the thought process “i type this often -> lets stop typing and use page-up”. of course it can’t work with passwords 😅 i should pay more attention to what i’m doing

Difficult to stuff this in the MBR for non EFI users. AFAIK grub can display background pictures though.

Always put the important servers in the attic, where they get fried by the summer heat, instead of the basement, where the flood hits worst.

it’s significantly less scary if you have a backup

I think that’s already a thing. I remember reading about that a few years ago, but probably hard to find after the home brewing and craft beer hype.

wth are you windows people doing? isn’t this just supposed to be some cloud storage?

Sometimes, when it backstabs me, I call it BeTRayFS

Also using X btw, because I haven’t figured out how to get two mouse cursors on Wayland yet 😅

i used symlinks first, but they break when you rename target files or directories.

as long as it’s one file system, hard links work better for me. so one day i replaced them all with hard links.

I agree, but agile and scrum are not meant to be followed to the letter no matter what. So people are doing it right if they notice some part of the process should be changed to make it work for them.

i have different directories named after moods/styles filled with hard links to my music. works better than playlists for me

You can go to https://distrowatch.com/ , but some are so abandoned, their status is unknown. Schrödingers distro: You have to try and install it to find out whether it’s still a thing.
