39·7 days agoand proper trashing is actually really helpful, so you can trash files on encrypted volumes without leaking them to a unencrypted trash dir.
trashing saves time and has a more continous workflow, as you don’t have to confirm each file to prevent accidents, because you can restore if you deleted too much
2·7 days agoI have used this for something else a few years ago: It let me select what user to run it as and prompted me for a password while configuring it and then later it didn’t need a login any more.
I’m in EU and I have 2 different internet connections without a data cap, because I work from home and don’t want to commute to the office if one type is down. Both have bandwith caps tho (that way they are cheaper and it’s still good enough for me).
However, I want to suggest you use traffic shaping. In Linux, I used “trickle” many years ago, so I could download things without disturbing my family streaming or video calling. Idk how it works in other OSes, but the idea is to send a big download through a special network filter that slows it down to your configured bandwith, delaying it so much that you don’t reach your bandwidth cap. (The dowload will take months.) Also, I think I have seen something like this built into Steam and Filezilla. If I remember correctly Steam also had the option to pause downloads manually, but you have to remember to keep an eye on it, if you do that.
Title is misleading. Article starts with a gigantic useless text about “In the 1950s”.
Exactly as intended.

I also don’t understand why their algos cater nazi, racist and nationalist propaganda to young people. Being international corpos, they should be aware they are creating their own worst enemies. How will for example Chinese companies do business in EU, when they raised a xenophobic racist generation? Terrible plan.
