That’s a lot of the reason you buy it, but RHEL is a paid product that you buy copies of.

You haven’t heard of red hat? Or Ubuntu pro?

Shout out to nushell for building an entire shell around this idea!

Hoły hell thank you, my 7900xtx was doing this and I hadn’t noticed

That sounds harder than just using query parameters. What are the benefits?

But what if you have multiple optional parameters?

They have pretty different use cases. Localstorage is for when you want persistence across page loads, not necessarily specific to any particular page but specific to a browser. An example would be storing user-selected light or dark mode.

Query parameters are specific to a page/URL and you get a lot of things for free when you use them:

• back/forward navigation
• bookmarking
• copy-paste to share
• page level caching
• access on both server and client

Query parameters are good for things like searches, filters, sorting, etc

Query parameters are junk? They have tons of legitimate uses, they’re one of the better places to keep state.

If you already have a public facing server for them to connect to then sure.

Set up Tailscale and an SSH key for remote tech support

Yes it’s an LLM called pandoc, you can run it locally

Oh nice! I’m stoked about the background sidecar operations, that will speed things up considerably

If you need honest-to-god office, then yeah you’ll need a windows installation. Either a VM or a second drive is best.

You can use windows indefinitely without activating, you’ll just have the watermark and default desktop background.

Yeah, docker in a VM makes sense. Docker in docker in a vm in a vm though?

People don’t actually do this, right? Docker inside docker inside a VM inside another VM? On windows? Right???

Your best option by far is to overwrite windows completely. For most software development Linux is way better anyway.

I haven’t done this recently enough to guide you on the details, but step zero is to decide whether you are certain you want to dual boot or not. It adds a lot of complexity and brittleness that is best avoided if at all possible.

• Try to find Linux compatible replacements for the software you need.
• if that doesn’t exist, see if you can run it on Linux with wine.
• If that isn’t possible, consider running windows inside a virtual machine on Linux.
• If you do want honest, bare-metal windows then using two different physical drives will be easier and more reliable. Ideally your laptop has room for two drives, otherwise you can dangle a USB SSD (not a flash drive). Windows won’t install to a USB drive but Linux doesn’t care.

Software & Services:

• Restic client
• Restic REST server
• https://github.com/rbuchberger/res-man + systemd timers or cron to configure & run restic nightly
• healthchecks.io for monitoring
• ntfy.sh for notifications

Destinations:

• Local raspberry pi with external hdd, running restic REST server
• RAID 1 NAS at parents’ house, connected via tailscale, also running restic REST

I’ve been meaning to set up a drive rotation for the local backup so I always have one offline in case of ransomware, but I haven’t gotten to it.

Edit: For the backup set I back up pretty much everything. I’m not paying per gig, though.
