Timeshift for configs to a locally attached drive. Home partition to cloud with rsync

100% correct until the last sentence. Actually millions of EU nationals left never to return.

The fact that the majority of power imports ~~is~~ are from France and Norway is also good news as they both have very high zero carbon generation (nuclear and hydro respectively)

First sentence of the article

"new default Cinnamon theme coming to Linux Mint 22.1 later this year."

What's DIM ? It's not mentioned in the article

For me this falls in the category of "sit back and eat popcorn". Both sides are arseholes I don't mind which loses, in fact it's a shame they all can't lose

Nothing. You can only invoke article 7 against a specific country, and with 2 there's insufficient votes to invoke article 7 against either. You can't do a "twofer".

You have to remember this was considered an unthinkable nuclear option when the treaties were draw up. That two countries could both diverge so far from the EUs ethos would horrify the (possibly naive) original founders.

As that worn quip goes

" they did nazi this coming"

They can also hijack the connection of a connected box (ethernet over hdmi) or via a connected phone (bluetooth & chromecast iirc)

Sounds like a smart move.

Yes. Separate or single disks makes no difference, it writes changes to the efi partition that bios references to boot.

I don't know whether fedora is impacted, the article specifies the following as documented impacts

" The reports indicate that multiple distributions, including Debian, Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Zorin OS, and Puppy Linux, are all affected."

And I also note that at least 2 arch implementations are impacted in addition to that list (i first saw it on arch forums).

I would suggest you definitely DON'T assume fedora is unaffected until you check your install, fedora participates in safeboot so given all the article listed distros also do (and arch has a method for it)

Odds are they're impacted, M$ has done a scattergun on this, the only ones you can be sure are unaffected are those still bios booting rather than uefi

No. Any efi dual boot is affected.
