Yep! Borgmatic is the most useful cli option in my opinion. You can create a single yaml config and call borgmatic from a cron job.

If it's a desktop/laptop, I recommend Pika, which is just a nice frontend and scheduler for borg backup. If it's a server, I recommend borgmatic.
The nice thing about borg is that it does all of the things people usually want from backups but that are kind of frustrating to do with scripts:
- Encryption so they're private and can be uploaded to cloud storage safely.
- Compression so they aren't too big.
- Uses snapshots with deduplication so that they don't take up too much space.
- Snapshots happen on a schedule.
- There's a retention policy of how many snapshots to keep and at what interval (1 snapshot per year for the last 4 years and 1 per month for 12 months, for example).
- You can browse through old snapshots to retrieve files.
- You can restore from a snapshot.
- Ignore certain files, directories, and patterns.
It is surprisingly difficult to get all of that in one solution, but borg things will do all of the above.
It's the audio framework behind most modern Linux systems nowadays. It performs much better than previous ones and provides greater consistency and expectations for end users. Basically... if you've ever been frustrated by audio configuration on Linux, this project is probably working on fixing it.

Critical support for lemmy.world admins alienating their users by managing to be more fascist than Reddit admins.
As others have said, these are lines to make it possible to guess where a specific house number might be based on the start and end numbers of the line.
I usually recommend against deleting this kind of thing unless you can confirm that locals don't care or if it's not present in surrounding blocks.
Ubuntu is highly commercialized and trademarked so vendors that offer it make deals with canonical. Dell, Lenovo, and System76 have all offered Ubuntu in the past.
One thing that vendors do sometimes is they offer an official image that includes drivers for that particular laptop and they never make it into mainline. I think that's part of the draw for offering your own weird OS - you basically get to control hardware support and your own release cycle.
Control has other benefits as well. You get to do some branding, which bean counters love, so you get to deliver "the Lenovo experience" or whatever. I think System76 actually cared about this for good reasons and that's why Pop!OS (terrible name) is actually pretty good. Ubuntu kept screwing up their offering so they just did their own thing instead.

Oh I see. Not sure what they mean by "pay once", that was what made me think it was about buying software.
Brave has been hyped as a privacy browser despite having several major privacy failures baked into it repeatedly. It's 100% hype. You get the same level of privacy on paper by installing Chromium with an ad blocker and tweaking a couple settings. Firefox has better privacy defaults and is better with an ad blocker installed. Chromium has a slight edge on security (FF needs to really push tab isolation harder) but if privacy is your main concern I would always recommend FF.
Money is involved because people want to make a living off of their project. Also, every major browser has been backed with huge amounts of funding because supporting a browser is very difficult.
That said, that doesn't mean every browser project is good, either. Just that it's reasonable to see why people would want to get income from their work.
PS the Brave CEO sucks so I'm not sympathizing with him here.
You can burn em with your burner of course. I haven't burned discs in so long that I can't remember what software I used to use, but there should still be open source, free software that can do exactly that.
If long-term, secure storage is your goal I'd go with redundant, error-correcting digital storage with off-site encrypted backups (don't forget the password!). A proper system like that will survive a tornado (because it's backed up off-site). A home-built RAIDZ2 NAS with one of many off-site backups will work very well. If you don't want to figure out how to build that system, you can also just buy a NAS with a similar level of functionality (I do still recommend RAIDZ2 with at least 6 disks, though).
Blu-rays will eventually degrade, either from scratches or a slow phenomenon where they get little holes in the foil. Even if you keep making copies, you'll run into this problem. Of course, data corruption can also occur for files on a computer, but that's why you use a strategy that keeps ~3 copies of each file around (basically what RAIDZ2 accomplishes) so that errors can be auto-corrected.
There are other benefits to a NAS as well. You can store your own backups of your other devices there as well and have them backed up off-site. You also have the option to share your blu-ray rips over your home network, basically running your own local streaming service.
If you want to share the love, so to speak, the bandwidth of a USB hard drive is actually pretty great.
