  • I don’t know what fd does, but at a guess maybe what you’re missing is that tar includes all the files in directories you give it? So if you exclude ‘foo/bar’ but include ‘foo’ then foo/bar will be in your tar file.

    What I do is basically tar cf `ls ~ | grep -v $files_to_exclude` but if you want to exclude something that isn’t a top-level directory you’d need to get slightly more fancy.

    It has some advantages. It can be configured with simple text files and normal filesystem permissions. The sshd code is mature and has a proven record of good security. It doesn’t add yet another thing to systemd that has no business being part of systemd.






  • In this case it’s not “carbon neutral” as in carbon neutral if you subtract the credit that a carbon offset company gave us for using our giant pile of money to bribe someone not to burn down a bit of rainforest on the far side of the world. It’ll be genuinely carbon neutral. Unlike the rest of us, F1 can afford to use the finest pure synthetic fuel made from organic hand-picked potatoes with energy from 100% green electrons.

    It may be only a small gesture compared to the vast enterprise of shipping so many tons of equipment and people all around the world, but it’s sort of cool nonetheless.
