Should I use Restic, Borg, or Kopia for container backups? in c/[email protected]

I setup a script to backup my lvm volumes with kopia. About to purchase some cloud storage to send it off site. Been running for a while de duplication working great. Encryption working as far as I can tell. The sync to other repo option was the main seller for me.

Here is a really in depth article about why the Muppets version of the Christmas carol is the best video rendition and stays true to the book. https://www.brightwalldarkroom.com/2019/12/20/a-grand-yuletide-theory-the-muppet-christmas-carol-is-the-best-adaptation-of-a-christmas-carol/

Google will no longer hold onto people's location data in Google Maps — meaning it can't turn that info over to the police in c/[email protected]

Curious on the implementation. For example apps like signal and WhatsApp require you to either move or lose your data when you get a new phone. This will have to be the way Google implements or they are storing it somewhere on their servers.

More economical and practical than any electric car on the market lol. Too bad they stopped selling them in the states.

Yeah the options just don't exist yet especially under $35k new what would you buy?

They've got a huge share of the hybrid market. Why release something sub par (expensive, low range, needs to be plugged in) my guess is they let Tesla and other companies fight it out and learn from them wait for the infrastructure to catch up then sell to the common person not just people who can afford to have a less practical car.

I think they are just being very conservative on their lineup. They'll hold on to hybrids till they can absolutely rock the EV world. Technology that improves EVs generally improves hybrids also and they will just sell better because they are more flexible.

I'm putting money on Toyota and their Panasonic batteries to build something like a Corolla EV for $25k USD 400 mile range.

Infrastructure is going to have to keep up too. Unless you are in a progressive/new/expensive apartment/neighborhood has reliable access to chargers that's going to have to change before you can start selling EVs to lower and lower middle class. Right now they only make sense of you have a garage to park in.
