Thanks for the share!

Since this has seen some interest – here’s how much disk space this opulence costs: Arch x86 repository is 113 Gb and Arch ARM is 123 Gb :)

I have my homeserver rsync three Arch mirrors and three Arch ARM mirrors in rotation on three days every week. Thus I have full local repos for these. All my machines are configured to use this local repo. The reason I do this is precisely to be prepared for the inevitable ‘Internet is broken’ scenario.

Also Reticulum Network Stack! Much more ambitious than Meshtastic.

Finland gets May Day fairs in cities - mostly cheap tinsel junk, masks and helium balloons for kids. Students in higher education are mandated to begin boozing morbidly around a week prior and carry on for at least a couple of weeks after. ‘Wabu ei lopu’ = May Day never ends. Communists put on parades. Families make mead and doughnuts. As a kid I thought it as the best festival of the year, I’d always get the noisiest party horn at the fair.

Cosmic supposedly does tiling pretty well. Haven’t tried it yet, but it might be the one new thing I’ll try since going all in on i3 / sway a long time ago…
