schestowitz                                        <p>For those of you not familiar with Dedoimedo's adventures, here's the gist of it. I would like to attempt to get rid of Windows in my home setup. When? Around 2025-ish, when Windows 10 goes EOL. Why? Because its successor, Windows 11 is totally pointless, and I have no intention of running my computer like a two-digit IQ chimp. Hence the attempt to go full Linux.</p>Nov 11 05:52

schestowitz                                        <p>File transfer over a network can be done in various ways and using different protocols. The most commonly used protocols for copying files remotely are Rsync, SCP and SFTP. In this guide, we will look at what is SCP and how to securely transfer files between local and remote computers with SCP in Linux and Unix-like operating systems.</p>Nov 11 05:52
