I like that I can interface with it in ways that I already understand (eg rclone, sync, sshfs).
Being able to run some commands on the server meant that I could use rclone to copy my AWS and OneDrive backups directly cloud-to-cloud.

“why is it inside out?”
3·10 天前COBOL is an old language Internet to make programs look a bit like English descriptions of what was needed.
I don’t really know it, but your code reminded me of the idea of it.
Don’t worry if your code is incorrect, just make random changes until you hit on something that no longer results in errors :)
What is this? Some sort of COBOL or something.
5·12 天前This scheme does not need a list, and if necessary could be simplified enough, some common part with first three letters of the site:
- For Instagram: my-memorable-password-Ins
- For Facebook: my-memorable-password-Fac
The memorable part could be the initials of a favorite song lyric, or something: nggyunglydIns, nggyunglydFac etc.
But the suggestion of using the Chrome password manager sounds like it will be seamless. I don’t know if it would work on IOS, but on Android it fills passwords in for many apps, not just web pages.
You say potato, I say tomato.
The same idea is part of the background of the poster of this live-action stop motion (yes really) movie.

Some people posted video of “unknown light in the sky” a few times, which happens regularly, but somehow it caught enough attention that everyone started looking at the sky.
It turns out that many people do not recognize a plane, or Venus, or a SpaceX launch, or a Chinese lantern, or whatever because now they’ve been led to expect to see something mysterious.
Debunker Mick West posted on YouTube showing how one famous video actually showed lights on a hillside, by lining up the image with Google Street view.
A few sightings do seem unusual, but many are just flashing lights moving over cities that happen to have busy airports.
11·1 个月前Before even getting to documentation, I see so many projects that don’t have a short summary of what they do (and maybe what to not expect them to do).
As an example, Home Assistant. I can tell that it involves home automation, so can I replace Google Home with it? It seems like it doesn’t do voice recognition without add-ons and it can work with Google Assistant. Do I still need accounts with the providers of smart appliances, or can it control my bulbs directly?
None of that is very clear from the website.
I’ve seen plenty of other projects where it’s assumed there’s no need to explain it’s overall purpose.

My first example was “a cup of frozen chicken strips”.
I know I can make a guess how much they mean, but I could easily be off by a factor of 2.
It really wouldn’t be hard to have the weight listed.
This sounds like a catch-22 problem.
Maybe scales could be improvised, with a stick, some cups, and awkward-shaped chunks of chicken in one of the cups.
True, but that’s just replacing a cup with a length, and rules out using an existing tub.
Why not use weight, which is easy to measure and tolerant of different forms/shapes?
(Yes, the “bird poop” one is correct, it does talk about fuel consumption too).
A similar chart could be made for the US, proving that it does use metric: soda and wine bottles, medicine doses, eye-glasses measurements (in fact most medical things).
I think that both systems are used in schools now.
But then I see cooking instructions for a “cup of chicken strips” and a recipe having 1/4 cup of butter, and I wonder why anyone thought that volume was a good idea there.

1·2 个月前That was covered pretty well already!
Or maybe it’s using Fluidic logic.
I still have checkbooks with the 19__ prefix printed to make it easier to write the year!
