You should look into “Configuration as code”, where you use automation via various methods and store the code in a git repo. The other commenter in the thread is a good example of this methodology, using Terraform and Ansible, but there are many ways to do this.
1·2 months agoOn a Samsung Galaxy? I have one and am also similarly frustrated with the changes, but it seems like the support for custom roms is poor.
Depends on the program and the professors. I’m doing computer scuence at CSUN, and I’ve gotten lucky, none of the online exams have required any proctoring software (rootkit monitoring software). They just do them in the browser.
I’m pretty sure it’s possible to use timeshift to create backups on another drive using rsync (instead of btrfs). They are incremental, and deduplicated, as well.
But the other commenters are correct, timeshift is not a backup tool, it’s more for snapshots to undo system changes you may not want. In addition to that, it doesn’t do user files by default — because again, it’s not a backup tool.
btrfs send/receivetechnically does what you want, using btrfs to do backups to another drive, but I don’t think any GUI app supports it. Plus, you would have to create snapshots for btrfs from the command line.Your best bet are apps explicitly designed for this usecase, like someone mentioned pika, or borg or restic are good choices. They don’t do BTRFS, but they do incremental, deduplicated updates in a user friendly way.
Wasn’t privacytools the original, before they were bought out and the original people moved to privacy guides?
Should be awful for gaming. It’s possible to run x86 things with emulation, sure, but performance (especially single-thread)
Most modern software (games excluded), is dynamically compiled. This means that it’s not all one “bundle” that runs, but rather a binary that calls reusable pieces of code, “libraries” from the binary itself. Wine is dynamically compiled.
What makes modern x86 to arm translators special, is that the x86 binary, like an x86 version of wine, can call upon the arm versions of the libraries it uses — like graphic drivers. It’s because of this that the people on r/emulationonandroid managed to play GTA 5 with 30 fps via the computer version. There definitely is overhead, but it’s not that much, and a beefy machine like this could absolutely handle it.

The Facebook/Meta table had a booth where they had an ARM macbook that was running steam and they were installing games on it.
ut I honestly doubt ARM can with the overhead of emulation

They are not explicitly designed to boot ISO’s?
Also, price. I’m not gonna pay quadruple the price for something that can be done entirely in software.
The current problem with ventoy is that proprietary blobs are essentially an unauditable possible security backdoor.
This product is entirely proprietary, including the hardware, and even worse.
I find this comparison unfair becuase k3s is a much more batteries included distro than the others, coming with an ingress controller (traefik) and a few other services not in talos or k0s.
But I do think Talos will end up the lighest overall because Talos is not just a k8s distro, but also a extremely stripped down linux distro. They don’t use systemd to start k8s, they have their own tiny init system.
It should be noted that Sidero Labs is the creator of Talos Linux, which another commenter pointed out.
