Thursday: That thing finally fucking works

At least mostly works.  I have a suspicion that the next step isn't going to fucking work, because of course it won't.  Still, I discovered that:

tar cf - -T file_of_files_to_transfer -h | ssh remote_host tar xf - -C /destination/dir

is a stupidly efficient way to transfer files and preserve directory structures, for those times you can't use rsync, because you're only transferring a subset of the files in the subdirectory.

• Gee, it only took how many years for google to realize that people weren't going to suddenly start flocking to plus?  Plus added exactly zero value to things.  That pun was unintentional.
• Cats vs. dogs.
• Bunny vs. cups.
• Giraffes vs. puns.
• This is the greatest things I've seen in a long time.
• "Yes.  Thank you.  I was wondering where the fucking dragon was, the dragon that's basically the size of the boat we're on, the dragon that is making a lot of noise as it destroys the rigging.  Thank you for fucking pointing to it."
