schestowitzThe two accounts you mention I assume to be the same personFeb 06 05:58
schestowitzdon't let this whole "NO LONGER MY FRIEND IN FACEBOOk!!" type nonsense get to you :-)Feb 06 05:59
schestowitzI often joke about such thingFeb 06 05:59
schestowitzthe explanation is likely much simple, e.g. "she posted soooo much today"... filled my timeline Feb 06 05:59

schestowitzIn a sense we can make up for it, by highlighting the little that existsFeb 06 06:10
schestowitzRianne installed Buster for me.Feb 06 06:10
schestowitzTook me 2 hours or more of work just migrating from synergy to  bordersFeb 06 06:10
schestowitzResearch plus doing that on 4 laptops -- all with diff OS/version. Only one I still struggle with. Might have to compile from source.Feb 06 06:10
schestowitz>> would you consider swapping files (links, irc etc.) over ssh rather thanFeb 06 07:18
schestowitz>> email?Feb 06 07:18
schestowitz>>Feb 06 07:18
schestowitz>> I think we can speed up this way (even further) and pool together infoFeb 06 07:18

schestowitz> you like notification that the ones I transfer to you are ready forFeb 06 07:18
schestowitz> pickup?  I guess we could just make some folders for Links-YYYY-MM andFeb 06 07:18
schestowitz> then just put the 'merged' files there.  But the notification would be aFeb 06 07:18
schestowitz> problem still unless I just send an e-mail "ready".Feb 06 07:18
schestowitzI was going to suggest setting up account with ssh access on one of my machines, but then I thought, wait... why not just use techrights server for that?Feb 06 07:18
schestowitzThere's nothing truly sensitive in these files, so I can upload the txt file along with the IRC HTML files. For links... I can even then use wget to save a step. I am attaching my 'dirty' script, which I invoke with a mouse button with ncurses dialog. It's really ugly, but please don't attempt to clean it up, I'm the only user of this.Feb 06 07:18
schestowitzTo check if ready we can set up an hourly script with wget that looks if the file is there with today's date. It's easy to write that.Feb 06 07:18
schestowitzI am still working on my 'home office'... soon with 6 monitors for me (and Rianne uses dual).Feb 06 07:18
schestowitzTomorrow it'll upload the text file too (I invoke this with mouse button+dialog selection in nucurses, then neter server password)Feb 06 07:25

schestowitzI am not moving back to KDE from openbox as the new machine has 8gb of ram. Never before did I have a machine with more than 2.Feb 06 07:54
schestowitzYes, you can set up another account for such uploads.Feb 06 07:54
