Internxt Drive (formerly X Cloud) client-side encrypts your files, and files are encrypted in transit and at rest. Only the user knows the decryption key of the files since his or her password is used to encrypt and decrypt the files, and is only known by the user. Additionally, unlike in any other service (eg Tresorit, pCloud, Sync), Internxt Drive breaks apart user files and a server only hosts file shards, never complete files. This adds an extra layer of security to the service against hackers or any other third-party. [source] | HN on Internxt | Internxt as alternative to Tresorit | Internxt X Cloud combines peer-to-peer filesharing, end-to-end encryption, and the blockchain to create a decentralized cloud storage platform. X Cloud is the user-facing part of Internxt’s service, while the backbone of the operation is X Core. This is a decentralized network of hosts, offering their computing and storage capacity to X Core and X Cloud. These hosts are incentivized to participate with the Internxt token, INXT. [source] What is decentralized cloud storage? Decentralization allows Drive to provide a completely unique cloud storage service, where files are encrypted, fragmented and each fragmnent is hosted in servers present all over the world. This allows us to provide higher levels of privacy, eco-friendlyness and reliability. These servers are ran by high-quality operators running our exclusive Internxt Core program. Internxt Core is ran on already existing hardware, leveraging unused storage space, and thus providing a highly green cloud storage service. Since we count with storage servers everywhere in the globe, we also leverage latency to reduce energy consumption when sending you your files. [source] HackerNoon article

wego: Use this open source tool to get your local weather forecast The wttr.in project is a web-based wrapper around wego. It provides some additional display options. One cool thing about wttr.in is that you can fetch one-line information about the weather with curl. I have a little shell function called get_wttr that fetches the current forecast in a shortened form. get_wttr() {curl -s "wttr.in/Pittsboro?format=3"}

Q. How to check if remote repository has changed and I need to pull? A. First use git remote update, to bring your remote refs up to date. Then you can do git status -uno which will tell you whether the branch you are tracking is ahead, behind or has diverged. If it says nothing, the local and remote are the same. If local is behind remote, it will automatically do a pull to bring local up-to-date. [source]

Differences between write.as and writefreely

wa case-insensitive Search | Get a list of hashtags for a write.as blog. Put blog name in input box (e.g., jwc) not the full url. [source] cjeller1592 on glitch | cjeller1592 on github | blog.cjeller.site | All public posts that use a certain hashtag: https://read.write.as/t/blogging
Hashtags do not work in an anonymous non-blog post, but they are active in a blog post. For published posts on read.write.as, tags can be searched, e.g.: https://read.write.as/t/personal. Hashtags are active for blog posts sent out to the fediverse, grouping a blog's posts by similar topics, and adding hashtags to tweets on Twitter and cross-posts on Medium [source] RSS feed: https://write.as/jwc/feed/ | Tags have RSS feeds too. Just add /feed/ to the tag URL, e.g. https://write.as/jwc/tag:cosmology/feed/ (Note: the trailing / is apparently required with rss feeds for tags)
