Bill Wurtz’s excellent history of the entire world, I guess. Also check out his history of Japan.

Yeah I don’t need anywhere near that much. I’m syncing maybe 50-100mb worth of stuff. More might be nice cause I could back up other things too, but… meh.

Came here to say this, I’m glad I’m not the only one.

Yeah, that worked for copyign stuff over, but I need some kind of cloud backup service that I can drop files like my passwrods.kdbx file or my writing projects on to ensure that they are backed up. I have since discovered pCloud and have been very happy with it so far.

Yeah, I found some tutorials for it and was like ‘Nah fuck this’, so I switched to pCloud. Much rather have a linux-native client for a service that cares about privacy and doesn’t include the fuckery that MS often puts into its products. pCloud works great.

I hate the ‘containerize everything’ methodology of Bazzite. I tried it, and every problem I ran into the solution was like ‘Oh, go add this line to the config file in this folder, easy peasy’, only nothing was where it should’ve been because everything was containerized. I get that it’s useful, but it’s not my jam. I like nobara a lot better (because it’s a regular distro, but also because it’s not-ubuntu which hates my bog-standard RTX3060 GPU for, uh, reasons; Pop wouldn’t let me update the nvidia driver without hard-locking the system no matter the version I tried, 2 installs of Ubuntu simply turned my monitor off with ‘no signal’ on boot and refused to do anything even when I let them sit there for 30 minutes, and Mint did the same thing booting the installer on USB.

However, I’ve since discovered pCloud and begun migrating my onedrive stuff over there. I was only ever using onedrive because it came installed with windows and I needed a place to put little stuff like my keepass passwords database and small projects and such to ensure that they were backed up. I would much rather use something with a linux-native client and without all the fucky-wuckiness that tends to be involved in any Microsoft product.

I’m already in the process of switching. Just installed nobara a few days ago, been slowly getting my games and such working and have been impressed. My only issue so far is I have some stuff in my onedrive folder on windows that I can’t seem to access from linux. Need a way to access that or replace one drive for file sync and backup.

But the reason they were installed in those places is because the power is cheap. Which is a particular irony in Texas because despite having cheap power we never seem to have enough of it. Every summer ERCOT rolls out warnings that are like ‘zomg you guys I didn’t realize it gets hot in Texas in the summer, y’all are gonna have to turn off your air conditioners so we don’t run out of power. What? Of course we’re not turning the AC off in our offices, are you crazy?’ Yeah, sorry chum, I’m not suffering through 100+F degree heat just so some rich asshole can make a bit more money today.

Oh do you guys have cheap power too? Soon you too can enjoy the constant droning hum of some rich fuck mining bitcoin on an industrial scale to get just a little bit richer just like Texans.

And you’re so stupid as to not be able to understand that it’s your responsibility to decide what your kids should and should not have access to, not the government’s, especially when the only tools they have to do so just make it harder for the rest of us to get access to those things at best? ‘Won’t some one please think of the children’ has worn pretty goddamned thin: think of your own children, they’re your responsibility, not mine and not Congress’.

I dunno who it was who decided that legislation should parent their kids instead of them having to do it themselves, but if I ever find them I’m going to slap the shit out of them.
