I have a cheap 2 bay synology NAS that acts solely as a backup server for my main NAS in an offsite location as well as a USB drive locally.
Backups run every night with duplicacy
I exclude media files (movies, TV shows,...) from my backup routine due to the sheer amounts of data accumulated over time and the fact that most of it can be re-aquired using public sources in case disaster recovery is needed
I remember reading an announcement from the main developer that he isn't able to find time to work on that project not too long ago, so not sure if it is a viable option for the future. Definitely a cool project though.
Here is the link to the post I mentioned: https://www.patreon.com/posts/olives-future-79926246
When I was younger I pirated because I didn't have any money to spare for digital media. Today I have a stable income and can afford all these things but I still pirate because it's just more convenient in many ways.
Whenever I consume something that I really like I 100% support the artist / developers mostly by buying this exact product and / or some merch or by going to their concerts (if it's music related)
To me piracy is just a way of freedom. Which includes to respect other people if they like or dislike spending money on certain things. In my eyes we should not split this community in such a way because this would kill the essence of freedom to make your own choices
I don't really get this article to be honest.
An attacker doesn't need vscode to expose your closed off network, there are many more terminal tools that can be used for various kinds of attacks, especially if the attacker can smuggle in his own executables, as it's assumed in the post.
Neither do I like Microsoft nor vscode but to me it looks like the tunnel thingy can (and definitely should) be blocked off easily and it seems to be even documented by Microsoft.
Definitely an interesting project especially for those Linux users that mostly stick to one machine and like to experiment with new features.
For the regular sys admin type of person that needs to jump from one Maschine to another it's probably a little too non-standard and hard to get productive with
Many Linux users spend a considerable amount of time using the command line interface, so the right shell configuration can make them much more productive.
