Resources

This will be a location for links of useful information I have found that has helped me with issues, questions or just curiosities. I am still trying to figure out the best structure - I understand its not the clearest at the moment. Bare with me - WIP.

Websites

I will include a quick scenario for which each link has helped me.

W1 Backup Options

https://www.howtogeek.com/427480/how-to-back-up-your-linux-system/

I had a corrupted motherboard. It could not hold the Windows OS (think blue screen of death). I scrapped that for Ubuntu, and it crashed about 8 times in the span of one month. It was the stable build. Now that I have a new machine, I want to not have to continue to download all the configurations I made. I was not able to perform it via rsync but I did use grsync.

W2 Password Management

I most often use KDBX file types for password storage such as Macpass for Mac OS & Keeweb for Linux/Windows OS.

A shared/local & individual & within the terminal you can use: https://www.passwordstore.org/

The tutorial I used is: https://www.fossmint.com/pass-commandline-password-manager-for-linux/
