“Cloud storage” in the North is just a drawer full of usb sticks confiscated from people smuggling K-dramas in from the South.

You get incremental backups (snapshots) by using

--link-dest=DIR         hardlink to files in DIR when unchanged

To use this you pass in the previous snapshot location as DIR and use a new destination directory for the current snapshot. This creates hard links in the new snapshot to the files which were unchanged from the previous snapshot, so only the new files are transferred, and there is no duplication of data on disk (for whole-file matches).

This does of course require that all of the snapshots exist in the same filesystem, since you cannot hard-link across filesystems.

Switching your firefox profile to a firefox fork is super easy peasy squeezy cheesy peas.

You just need to follow the steps for moving your profile in this Firefox support article: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/back-and-restore-information-firefox-profiles

When you start librewolf or whatever you switch to (librewolf is what I use) it will have everything from Firefox including whatever your last session was (if you save your session) and all of your history and bookmarks and even addons and UI customization etc.

Population expansion is exponential but the tram moves at constant velocity, so by the time it reaches the end of the track of 8bn people there will be an exponentially increasing number of people further down the track.

I checked your Mastodon timeline but I don't see the post, only the one where you relate the story.

Yes the volunteer software authors should work to the beat of the drum of the baying and braying users who insist on using cutting edge software before its wider ecosystem has adapted to its novelties. A very good point.

It really is a shame that they force you to update to the new version. If only there was some way to continue using the existing Gnome version until the extensions have been updated by their authors.
