I didn’t know he had such an American accent. He speaks with an almost native level of fluency.

Clicking one of those images shows the one before it. I wanted to save them all. 🥲

I want to sell this gen alpha girl some punctuation…

You won’t need to unless you run a server in that case. 👍 But the only condition here was “working with Linux”.

Like I said, I’ve been using Linux at home and for work for over a decade, maybe 15+ years, never once did I need to use rsync or know what it is.

That being said, it was convenient when I used it, but never did I need it.

Alright. But you don’t need to know rsync. That’s my only point. 👍👍

Better get in there now and add it back to your current account then, this is dirt cheap.

If you want to use it for backups, there are other solutions, so you still don’t need to use it or know it. You can use something else. That’s my only point. 🤷‍♂️

And “really bad” is all relative. If you are only backing up your home drive with documents or whatever, copying a few unnecessary gigabytes over a LAN connection isn’t too bad at all. But scp isn’t what you should be using for backups anyway. I only used rsync for file transfer…

But if you’re working with Linux you’re going to need to know it.

Nope. I never have needed to know it. I only ever used it because I was either curious to know how to use it or because it was more convenient than other solutions. But scp is basically just as convenient.

If not, it goes against everything I thought I understood about Bluetooth 😆 Curious to know how it actually would work.

I’ll keep on trucking on it whenever I get a chance then 😊

That’s brilliant use, I like it.

So how does it work? Do you just need to “have Bluetooth turned on” and it reaches the recipient, or do you need to connect to each other somehow? Can this work for a group chat with a family, or colleagues on a conference trip perhaps?

That’s pretty far, that makes it better I guess. Like you could send messages across buildings if you have line of sight e.g. That’s neat.

But you have to directly connect to other people’s devices via Bluetooth along the way, right? Like a relay race of handing over the message until you either reach a network, or the recipient?

I have been playing it, but I’d obviously rather it not be on Epic, is what I’m saying.

Sorry, it’s just that there’s a bad habit going around on Lemmy at large, of lazy copy paste posting of releases of software without any description of what the software is or why the OP thinks this release is of particular interest, or why they think we should care.

Inappropriate af

1. What is Bonfire?
2. Why is an RC release of interest?

Overwhelming

Got that for free on Epic. But… Epic.
