       I've never trusted tarpipes. something about using netcat in such a way where it never knows when to close the connection makes me feel like I'm using old BBS transfer protocols. Is it compatible with XMODEM? YMODEM? KERMIT? TARPIPE?

       it also takes a very, very long time, if you're hashing a low-RPM 2.5" spinning rust drive

       @foone tar is overrated.

       @foone I use tar through ssh because scp is slow and does not preserve directory attributes.

       @funjon why though? Is someone going to sneak into my office and attempt an md5 collision attack between two computers on my desk?
