Pretty much every alerting system I know also has a filter option to only apply automated discovery rules to certain filesystem types.

But yes, most don't first squashfs or mounted read-only snapshots by default and it sucks.

But it does. If the universe was deterministic, choice would be impossible because all outcomes would be predetermined.

Quantum randomness may not directly provide free will but it does exclude determinism, which would make free will impossible.

I'm mostly with you except for the determinism. Not only do we KNOW that the universe is fundamentally probabilistic and not deterministic, all our technology works extremely hard to combat random errors because small electronics are absolutely not deterministic, they are just engineered to have a low enough randomness so we can counteract it.

How old are you?

Are you using zfs?

That really is one hell of a hot take 😀

I for one really love the zoomed out preview on the right that has become popular in recent years.

Really hard to do in a terminal. If you have errors you can see very fast where they are located/clustered in the file and can already tell just by the shape of the program where it is.

Another example: GUI color picker directly in my editor as a tooltip above color values in css/html templates.

Another example: inline preview of latex or Template fragments.

In Germany we need coins to unlock supermarket carts, so I use the coin pocket for it's intended purpose to house my one coin.

But it's a gigantic waste of energy and time when you could just download a 2mb package and be done with it.

That's why you do regular restore tests on separate systems. That should be standard procedure for any company. A fully encrypted disk should be noticable immediately.

If your backups are online and not in a warehouse, you are doing it wrong. Even my own personal backups are on disconnected disks. What a bunch of amateurs.

Which is completely fair to say but does not mean that people here should shit on windows users in general. If it works for them, let them do their thing.

They sure have Nazis in Ukraine as has every country.

But saying that the fascists in Italy have anything to do with Ukraine needs very good evidence to support such a wild claim.
