(#5slaifq) Context for those who don’t know: Epic Games is the company behind the hugely popular video game Fortnite. As far as I know, the core game is still free-to-play and supported by microtransactions. It’s available on Windows, consoles, and mobile platforms. They sued Apple a few years ago because they felt the 30% cut Apple takes for in-app purchases was unreasonable and that they should be allowed to distribute their software independently of the App Store. It didn’t turn out so well for them. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epic_Games_v._Apple
(#5slaifq) @slashdot@feeds.twtxt.net They must have spent such an ungodly amount in legal fees by now that I wonder if they’ll come out of this in the green if they get to keep all the money from in-app purchases. Don’t get me wrong, I’m glad they’re doing it, but I think there’s a reason why Epic Games is the only one fighting for app store neutrality.
(#kyuqxna) @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org If rsync is interrupted, it doesn’t delete any files that were transferred completely so it will “resume” from that last complete transfer. However, it does delete any partially transferred file. --partial keeps that partial file around on the destination machine so it can continue right where it left off.
(#5jys7ia) I usually end up using -rtz because I’m usually not 100% sure all the permissions and ownership information are right and I hate littering directories with inconsistent permissions. For a big transfer, I’ll start with -rtvz --stats --dry-run and make sure it’s only transferring the files it should, then I’ll do -rtz --stats --info=progress2 --no-i-r to get one progress bar to watch for the whole transfer.
(#36iswna) @slashdot@feeds.twtxt.net This is exciting news! Two of the most important privacy tools joining forces. Now, if we could get a Monero wallet included in Tails alongside Electrum, we’d really have something. :)
(#5jys7ia) @aelaraji@aelaraji.com Rsync has a ton of options and I probably still haven’t scratched the surface, but I was able to memorize the options I actually need for day-to-day work in a relatively short time. I guess I’m the opposite of you, because I don’t know any scp(1) options.
(#q2lkg5a) @prologic@twtxt.net You’ve done extremely well for ~$125/month, but that’s not figuring in labor. I’m sure you’ve put a lot of hours into maintenance in the last 10 years.
