Don’t worry, it just takes you to chatgpt, skips the middleman and interacts with the bot directly

That’s the old meaning of it. The new is “clock it”. Get with the times old man.

Or even better, libraries of functions you’ve built up over time from visiting stack overflow

Clock it 🤏🏼 (just imagine it’s the middle finger down)

It depends on the data but usually I’m just never offline. My NAS is accessible from around the world for my music and code repo and since I’m on IPV6 I didn’t even have to deal with port forwarding and reverse proxy nonsense. Photos I’m hosting an app that’s similar to Google photos and backs up from phone (it’s kind of custom to how I do things but there’s various self hostable apps). If I know I’m going to be truly offline unable to even connect through my phone somehow I’ll manually copy the files to my laptop. I haven’t done that in like five years though and it’s only been a mild inconvenience once and honestly I just disconnected and enjoyed a peaceful offline day.

Or a NAS for truly decoupled. Only thing I’d lose with a fresh install is any installed applications which can all be pulled again easily but the added upside of my wife also having easy access.

Every time I stumble across an uptime post I laugh, and then proceed to do my daily ritual of having to fully pull out my power cable and reinsert it to get the laptop to wake up.

Time to build a small Dyson Sphere.
