Setup backup hooks with velero and kopia on a HA postres cluster this week. Biggest DB is Lemmy and that shrinks by a factor of 10 using pgdunp with custom archive. Dumping is 100% the way to go!
Similarly I should do this for my sqlite applications, it looks like kopia can't do incremental backups with them and thinking about it, it makes sebse, likely sane reasons you mentioned.
Flakes is a way to manage nix, nix is essentially a package manager, NixOS would be probably easiest way to play with these tools.
You define a flake / nix configuration and they are designed to be installable on any system. Think of it as if you install and configure all of your programs, services, environment in it and you upgrade to a new PC, you run a command to install your flake from your previous PC and everything is configured how you had it on your previous PC.
Flakes is a new tool and is under rapid development, so it may have breaking changes in the future, but it is so popular that the devs are trying not to break it as much as possible.
Also take my comment as a grain of salt since while I know about flakes and use it, I am nowhere close to an expert on it and terms that I used may be incorrect especially for defining them, but in layman's terms I think its a decent introduction to what it is.
I'd say no since it is how pages are loaded and those likely interpreting the law including the user see a visual page change / transition it it would be considered another page since they'd likely not understand what SPA is.
With that many exploits being used I wouldn't be surprised to see it is a group probably government sponsored. They love iMessage exploits as original attack vectors too.
Yeah I am assuming it is true based off other reasings. Didn't really read the data behind this article though. From past references larger battery EVs take about 16 months of break-in before it's carbon neutral for manufacturing / emissions costs from an ICE vehicle. At that point even the heavy fossil fuel reliant electrical grids for charging is more energy / carbon neutral than the cost to refine / deliver / use gasoline for ice vehicles.
The article literally states they factored in charging the battery, which is the main reason they are being down voted. Read the dang article if you are going to criticize it.
Its amazing how much people disagree in this thread compared to reception from the other one I linked where they pointed it out. Their own Wikipedia page has a whole section about how their aggressive donation system makes them look like they are about to be shutdown yet they made over 10 million in profit excluding donations for the last couple years.
I don't even care if someone donates or not. Wikipedia making it look like they are going to fall apart if they didn't get your $1 donation is bull.
Here is a lemmy comment detailing it. Maybe I am ass at explaining this. I am also not trying to be like "spend your money elsewhere" but just trying to make sure you are aware their donation drives aren't desperate as they seem.
Point remains. Those expenses are for other projects as well not directly related to Wikipedia. There is no public information of actual cost to running / supporting just the Wikipedia, so that was probably the best source they could find. There are a ton of news articles about this and you can look them up if you want better sources. The end here is that your donating $ to a company that makes a millions in profit every year without the donations.
The expenses isn't just to run Wikipedia, it's for additional things like making a service to sell for enterprise use. The point (from my understanding at least) of an endowment is for whatever that owns it to basically live off of it in the worst case scenario. They also exclude the endowment from their net assets and annual revenue.
There are lemmy posts about this and I'm sure they explain it better then me, but from what I have read, in my opinion, donations to them seem less beneficial than a lot of things. Especially with their advertising that they need donations so much when they make millions every year.
They rejected me for using for personal notifications. I get being strict but good God let me use your service and if I abuse it shut me down.
