I use it for production backups. There's a sqlite db in each compressed archive to store metadata about the backup.

It's probably elsewhere but I don't realize it.

The article doesn't mention how well `pass` integrates with `git`. Once you do that, you get revision history, you can push it to a private repo (github, gitlap, etc), and keep your passwords in sync across multiple devices

On Android the app which supports pass+git is called 'Password Store' and can be found on F-Droid: https://f-droid.org/packages/dev.msfjarvis.aps

We use NFS for volume sharing for Docker Desktop on OSX and it's really fast (edit: really fast compared to without it, still not as good as Docker on Linux).

Inspiron 14 7000 has home/end at F11/F12 spots. And I had to follow some strange instructions to hack to BIOS to make the SSD available in Linux. It has Ubuntu on it now and it's OK.

Agree. I supported a DOS based touchscreen Point of Sale (POS) with technology from decades ago and it was fast AF. You only got 256 colors and the fonts didn't look that great. But it was a speed demon.

I was taught in business school (early 2000s) that it was good that GE fired the lowest 10% performing employees b/c the employees were not actually happy or content at GE or they would perform better. Therefore firing them is good b/c they'll find a better career fit elsewhere.

But I actually think it is terrible. It pits co-workers against each other and makes taking credit for an accomplishment more important than doing what's best for the organization.

It's probably good if it's done once every four years. But companies do it every year if not multiple times a year. So at that point, without new blood coming in, you end up cutting into the meat of a high performance org.

I love Sublime Text and have purchased licenses for each version. Thank you very much!

I've used TransType to convert PS fonts before with good success. PS fonts are kinda a nightmare, I'm glad that they are going away.

They’re not a nightmare, they’re simpler than the modern alternatives and have worked for many decades.

This is just forced obsolescence.

Could be scanning available wireless networks and using that to locate you

So Firefox on Desktop would share with Google which wireless network I'm connected to?

What network you're connected to doesn't matter. What matters is what networks your device sees.

On desktop/linux/firefox/private window and vpn, how can Google know which Wi-Fi network I'm connected to?

HTML5 geolocation if you ever click allow even one time can granularly identify location based on where you are. It sends nearby MAC and correlates this to wardriving-equivalent scans. You do not need to be connected to wifi.

Wish I would've known about this before I spent hours and hours transferring my GMusic library to Plex on a rpi in my house. Oh well, I'm too lazy to change again. Gonna stick with Plex for now.
