  • I often enjoy your comments and this one is no exception.

    There are communes you can buy from and there are food subsciption services from local farms but they are significantly more expensive. It’s absurd that the method of farming that will not kill us is priced out of reach of the majority of people, while the method of farming that will kill us is subsidized by our own tax dollars (depending on the country, of course).

    Same with energy. In the U.S., the fossil fuel industry is subsidized to the tune of about $20 billion a year, while green energy (although it does have some minor tax breaks for individuals etc.) is mostly left to compete in a “free market” a.k.a. unsibsidized. It’s utter madness. Either allow a real “free market” (renewables are now cheaper) or give the subsidy to the method of production that doesn’t threaten every single living thing on the planet.

















  • I only have the OS on the sd card and I pop that out and dd a copy to my backup drive every 6 months or so. For that reason I like to use small sd cards like 8gb size. All other drives on the machine are external or network drives and those have their own backup routine with rsync.

    Do you use only the sd card or what kind of storage system do you have on your sbc?
