its amazing how its generally easier to transfer something to a server a country over for it to then reach the other device. instead of it going directly over local network speeds.

also how its much easier to backup to google than to you own computer thats right there.

RaoulDook ,

It’s really not if you have the right setup at home, instead of using somebody else’s servers. Like nobody has a NAS or their own servers?

It’s much nicer not worrying about who can get to my files in the cloud, when they’re not in the cloud.

EvacuateSoul ,

I do, but I VPN in, so it would be a pain to talk someone through that and send them their key.

unironically no.

Syncthing ftw. As soon as I plug my phone into a charger, it starts syncing everything to my NAS. Even if it’s not charging, I can override the rule and force it to sync.

You can go to /var/log/apt/ and read the history.log as it will contain every single package that you did install/remove.

Based on that you can just restore it to working state by manually undoing the changes (removing installed, installing removed)

I made a dump folder on sync thing. When I want to share a file or 12, move it the dump folder and presto - the files are moved.

But yes, a USB drive is still very good for transfer, especially lots of files to other people.

Nooodel OP , to pics in [OC] Salamander in South Tyrol

took this image 2 years ago when being there on holiday. We went back last year, to enjoy the absolutely beautiful nature scene in which we found the salamander, only to see it having become a construction site for a new road…

I usually just use Bluetooth cuz I’m only transferring an image or two over. But if it’s something big, I just use USB transfer because when the phone is plugged into the computer, it appears as an external drive.

Using this double sided boy seems like it would be putting a lot of weight on the USB port… 🤔

AscendantSquid ,

I think it’s a flash drive; you plug it into your phone, load files onto it, unplug it then plug it into the computer.

I use KDE connect…

But my grandfather does the ol reliable method for image upload, which is:

  1. emails it to himself
  2. prints the email off
  3. scans the printout into his computer again
  4. uploads image to faceboom Facebook

I typo’d Facebook originally but thay was too good to get rid of so I just strikethrough’d it

Lemminary ,

scans the printout into his computer again

Your grandpa got the memo that inhales IT NEEDS MORE JPEG! And took it one step further.

Sounds eerily similar to what my mom does to save receipts, minus the facebook part
