  2. I wrote my own python wrapper around Rustic and RClone to achieve 3-2-1 file-level backups: https://github.com/AlphaJack/rusticlone/.

    I first tried Rustic's native RClone support, but performance were awful. Backups are automated and run on a daily basis. To restore all my repo (or just one) I run a single command, if I have the repo configs in place.

    To backup the repo configs I manually make a second backup by putting them, among all other configurations for my devices, in an encrypted .7z archive, which I upload in a remote cloud storage.

    To reinstall Arch, I turned my notes into an automated script that does that in few minutes. The guide in the post derives from it, so it's quite up-to-date.

  3. Thank you for the valuable feedback! I applied your suggestions, in particular sticking with pacman and explaning my encryption and PCRs values.
  4. Thank you for the feedback! As you and other have suggested, I removed the "yay" requirement and added a brief explanation that its install instruction can be found in the other guide
  5. I have a friend which is really happy with EndeavourOS, I am hearing only good stuff about it. Back when I switched to Linux, the choice was either Manjaro or Antergos, and Manjaro had a far wider community.

    Antergos was eventually archived, and from my understanding EndeavourOS become its spiritual successor.

  6. I found TPM + PIN to be more secure than TPM automatic unsealing, and faster than typing my long passphrase. I haven't tried pam_autologin yet, but I see the convenience of it.
  7. The threat model is the Evil Maid Attack. I found Secure Boot + UKI + TPM PIN (God forbids automatic unsealing) + FDE to be great for both security and usability.

  8. This is the step-by-step process I followed to install Arch Linux on my laptop with the following features:

    - Wayland - Plasma 6 - Plymouth - PipeWire - LVM on LUKS - Unified Kernel Image - TPM PIN unlock - Secure Boot

    Let me know what you think!

  10. Hi all!

    `toc` is a command line utility that generates the table of contents of a file from a special kind of comments.

    Think it as a `tree` for the contents of a file, instead of a directory.

    With version 2, I rewrote it in python for consistency and maintainability, and I added the possibility to embed the output in the original file

  11. Hi all!

    I wrote this simple tool to help me organize in sections my scripts and LaTeX files. It uses comments to generate a table of contents (toc).

    The output can be copied and pasted at the top of the original file as a comment.
