A nice #endof10 course for those uncertain but want to switch over to #Linux is offered by #ABF Olofström in Sweden;

Grundläggande Linux https://www.abf.se/blekinge/kurs/grundlaggande-linux-3870538/

Have you made your #backup today?

Well as backups are concerned I consider one as none. I count online as none too, because they are too much dependent on external factors to work.

My basic rule is: at least two separate devices with recent local backups of my data. Separate those devices physically, like in two separate buildings. One is always #offsite

On top of that I have a long term #archive to which a full backup is added periodically. I never delete archived files.

Last tip: test #recovery regularly!

Tired of my struggle with git today...

I happen to have a nested git repository. Which is the public directory inside my Hugo framework. Git has a solution for that called: submodule.

But the assumption in the documentation seems to be that you add a submodule from a remote server and basically clone it. But I generate it locally.

So I have to remove public from the tracked files (git rm -r --cache) then cd into public, then git init, then git add and commit all stuff in public, then I can add the submodule from the projects root...

I think I am on the right track? Am I?

#linux #commandline #git #submodule

On a mobile phone entering the search term 'duckduckgo' in the search engine Startpage (on their website) gives me no result to the ddg website. At least not on the first page. The only offers I get are sources to install the app.
What should I say about that?
Well; surprisingly annoying.

After many years I started to build a website again, when I discovered #codeberg pages.

Last time it was pure HTML I guess and maybe I used Dreamweaver?
This time I use the #hugo framework as open source static site generator. Really a nice experience to build and see it online in a matter of seconds!
Have no clue though how there can be a secure connection though? Without having touched any TLS stuff.

Anyhow, for those who want to follow my babysteps: https://oxo.codeberg.page

Linus Torvalds activity chart looks like a heart rate monitor.

Recently I made some neat date / time helper functions for bash / zsh.

I.e.: 'dten' gives current decimal date and timevalues with an added nanosecond epoch
(20250826_171150_1756221110.129674445)

Or: 'dtw' returns the current date-time with an added abbreviated weekday
(20250825_100736_W12_su)

Can be helpful for those living inside the shell!

#linux #bash #zsh #shell #script #date #time #epoch #nano
