I think it’s worth emphasising here: Don’t put it off!
There are millions who can tell you from experience that good intentions count for nothing when it comes to backups.
I’d recommend going and setting up Timeshift right now: https://github.com/linuxmint/timeshift
It’s easy to set up, it takes literally 10 minutes, and if you decide later you want to use something else, you can just uninstall Timeshift and delete its backups. But in the meantime you’ll be protected with backups.
It’s literally the first thing I install on a new system and it’s saved me multiple times from having to do a complete reinstall.
Is that unusual?

Ah, okay, on mine it de-duplicates crossposts in the feed. Thanks for the info!
I cross-posted it 4 times, within minutes of each other, each on a different instance. Is there something wrong with that?

The Football Association’s (FA) rules state teams must wear colours that distinguish them from each other.
They’re implanted with genetically-engineered organs, I’m not sure if they are themselves are genetically modified. I tend to think of them as augmented by biological implants, in the same way that members of the Mechanicus augment themselves with technological implants (as are the astartes, actually, in the case of the black carapace).
In any case, ‘mutant’ in 40k tends to mean a random deviation from the norm. There’s ‘abhumans’ like ratlings and ogryns which are not random (‘breed true’) and astartes are more like them.
How long is Titus’ neck? 😂
Transacta-7Y1 made a fist, a symbol they’d agreed on at the beginning of their companionship. They both tensed, making ready to move. Surprise was on their side. Nothing else was, but they took what they could get. But Envaric had one more thing to say.
‘Tee. Tell me something before we die, yeah?’
She turned to regard him, gazing at his deteriorating form through her monovisor. She said nothing, but he had her attention. The look in his eyes was what she suspected to be amusement. This was it, then. One last joke.
‘Are you pretty under all that?’
It took her a moment to process this. She’d never been asked such a thing. Beneath her armour, she was an irradiated foot soldier of the Machine-God. Her skin, deep brown at birth and not unlike Envaric’s in that regard, was a starved and sunless grey. She’d been ritually delimbed, her extremities replaced with arms and legs of inexpensive cybernetic purity. Much to her honour, she had attained such a state of grace within her mechamorphosis that more of her body was now comprised of holy iron than what remained of her flawed birthflesh. Under her helmet, she was pockmarked with cryo-controlled radiation tumours. She possessed no eyelids, no hair, no teeth, and no nose – and what hadn’t been surgically removed had rotted off over the course of her years of sacred service.
In short, she was skitarii.
Transacta-7Y1 keyed in a symbol and tossed him the dataslug again. He caught it with weakening fingers and read the symbol there.
[affirmative]
He gave a bloodstained smile. ‘Yeah, I thought so.’
Though neither of them knew it for certain, they were the last of their combined platoons. When they attacked a few moments later, killing two of the Emperor’s Children from ambush, it was the final act of resistance in the defence of the Principa Collegiate.

Sorry to hear about your gravitas situation, times are tough for many of us 😆
Thanks for your thoughts, I appreciate it!
You should check out !oldhammer@lemmy.world , if you haven’t already
I recall it being down for extended periods before. In the meantime there’s a backup at http://2d4chan.org/wiki/Main_Page (NOTE: their SSL certificate is broken so you’ll probably have to tell your browser to ‘accept the risk and continue’).
I assume you have got it by now? I certainly hope so! xD
Have you been enjoying it?
I’m considering buying a Shinobi - I’m inclined towards having dedicated function keys - so I’d love to know what you think about the Shura compared to the Shinobi.
I’d never heard this before, but it makes total sense that the U.S., gripped by Cold War paranoia, would have a different response to other parts of the world.
Here’s an article about how UFOs have been handled in Brazil, others might find it interesting: https://archive.is/QWzlC
If anyone knows of any other material on the subject, I’d be keen to hear about it!
People have already given direct answers, and the indirect answer of ‘set up regular automated backups’ (which everyone should set up right now if they haven’t already), but for the sake of throwing another option out there, people could take a look at ‘trash-cli’: https://github.com/andreafrancia/trash-cli
(P.S. I know OP might not have actually deleted the files with ‘rm’, but this addresses a broadly similar issue.)
