Were you at blizzard when they lost their source code server and had no backups? I was there for a short time consulting around the time WC3 was released.

Use sidecar files instead. I believe the professional tools all use them as well.

seems like he missed the mark. why not sync to side-car files? What about videos?

The problem I have with Garmin is lack of support for older devices. They practically bricked my old bike computer. Unfortunately it's been awhile and I can't recall the details of the issue. I have since switched to Wahoo but have only had it for about 3-4 years now.

I have the exact model it recommended, just the older one which isn’t for sale any longer.

I think it was 3.3x where things started working. I don't recall 4.x being around much. I do remember 5 and 6. For some reason 4 never made a splash in my circle of friends.

In my market you can’t plug into the ONT because it still requires authentication.

The modem the ISP provides has hard coded settings to limit connection counts as well as rate limit and probably other things. There is a reason they sell full duplex gigabit for so cheap, there are gremlins in the hardware.

I don't think I've ever seen so many positive comments. It must be Christmas.

What really amazed me was the Command-Tab icon. My brain registers what it is faster than all the other icons.

I knew this wasn't an overkill network when I saw an SG300 switch in the first pic.

IT can screen capture you computer without you knowing so this isn't new. Furthermore they can also see what application is in the foreground and OCR the captured image for more information. The possibilities to monitor you are endless.

The litigation is primarily from environmental groups.

A few years back CA had serious wild fire issues. PG&E was just the scapegoat. There are multiple factors but the main issue is that it's nearly impossible to get the environmental documentation (Environmental Impact Statements or EISs) prepared and approved for prescribed burns on federal land due to legal challenges from environmental groups that really have no idea what they are doing.

The system is broken.

I bet it was a fun project, but in reality backups using rsync vs restic, borg, etc., are very inefficient in speed, performance, storage, and likely other ways. After discovering these newer tools, I vowed to never put myself through the pain of rsync backups ever again.
