I am now using Syncthing on 57 GB of data on my way to 200 GB. I also haven't organized or otherwise even looked at most of these files over the past many years. So eventually I will sync less, I hope. https://syncthing.net
I am setting up Syncthing to sync about 300 GB of data between two computers https://syncthing.net/
When it comes to my HP laptop running quickly and cool, Debian Stable is doing an excellent job
I just installed Syncthing on my Debian laptop and started the service automatically with systemd https://docs.syncthing.net/users/autostart.html#
The reason I have so many updates right now is the release of @Debian 11.5 https://www.debian.org/News/2022/2022091002
Falling back from Fedora Silverblue 36 to Debian Stable 11 fixed a couple of bugs:
In LibreOffice Calc, ctrl-; spits out the date
In Vim, no need to hit Enter to clear command line after cd
(But gEdit scrolling issue WAS fixed in Fedora!)
I've been back in Debian on my laptop for about a week, and it's been uneventfully smooth. I'd probably say the same if I were going from Debian to Fedora instead of Fedora to Debian.

Things like the early (and expert) adoption of PulseAudio, Wayland, Pipewire, the latest GNOME and other innovations keeps me coming back to @fedora, even if I have recently moved to the predictable and quiet @debian Stable
I am enjoying setting up and using my new Debian 11 (Stable) system on my HP Envy laptop. It's this laptop's second time running Debian, and things have been smooth and predictable.
Hello, world
This is my Updates archive of social-media-style posts. My main site can be found here.

See EVERY post in this microblog — all 3,500+ — on one HTML page. This archive updates once daily.

Social updates, or why this site exists and how it works
This site is dedicated to social-media-style updates. For longer pieces, see my main blog. In this microblog, I am using a command-line script written in Ruby to feed this site and my Fediverse account on Mastodon.
No databases were harmed in the making of this web site
You're seeing this blog, powered by Ode, through the magic of the Perl programming language and the Common Gateway Interface. Also involved: the Apache web server and Linux operating system.
The Ode project website has been down for some time, but you can find what's left of the user base at Gitter.
Ode does not use a database to store content. Instead, every entry exists on the web server as a "flat" text file.
Counter: Thanks to Rob Reed for the Ode system that runs this blog as well as his help on the Counter addin that provides the post-count feature seen above.
What happened to the Ode project?
I don't really know.

I'd be lying if I didn't say I wanted to move this service to a Hugo blog, or just keep it on an Activity Pub site that I run. I'm looking into both of these options.
