shudder I'm having VBA flashbacks...

Awesome, thanks! I may dive back into this project again since I would still really like to do it. I think I actually have a spare Pi 4 around here somewhere that I got for my 3d printers but ended up swapping that to a thin client. Appreciate it!

Ooo is there a guide you are following for this? I tried setting this up a few years back during covid and never could get it working right. I still think it was faulty hardware but I went through at least a half-dozen grabbers.

The 2 stands for on 2 different mediums. So HDD and tape for instance. Or HDD and SSD. Or SSD and DVDs. Whatever combo you choose that fits your needs. This (minimizes) the chance of loss of both.

Not trying to be a smartass, but what's the alternative?

No shame in whatever path you take, as long as you don’t vote Republican!

Oh you don't have to worry about that!

I would LOVE to go back to the tree farm or become a park ranger or something. It just doesn't pay the bills that my cloud engineering does.

Article has been updated, this appears to have been a false alarm:

Nicholas Wu of Politico wrote that DC Metro Metropolitan Police spokesperson Hugh Carew said that the evacuation of the building took place after a call reporting an active shooter but that it “appears to be a bad call” and that “no injuries and no shooter were located”.

I've used them for many years. Like you said, free for federal and I think $15 if you want them to file state/local which I am happy to pay. I know I can do it free online but it's a cheap convenience.

Being in IT I've made a LOT of mistakes over the years, it comes with the territory. Though potentially screwing up a nearly half-century old science mission is not one of those. I truly hope for everyone's sake (but especially the person/people that issued the wrong command) that everything is corrected come October. That would be a horrible thing to have to think about.

My issue at this point is I have SOOOO many PS games that I wouldn't want to have to re-purchase on Xbox. I've had a playstation since the 2 so have a pretty extensive library. If there was a way to transfer things over without re-purchasing I would likely make the switch. As it stands, I made my bed so now I lay in it, lol.

I use FreshRSS and the FeedMe Android app. While FeedMe isn't on Fdroid you can download the APK directly from their releases page on github: https://github.com/seazon/FeedMe/releases

It's been working extremely well for me the past month or so.
