i made sink. it's a simple little tool that continuously syncs folders between 2 devices. no cloud, no email, flash drives, no bs.
it just uses your local wifi. run it on your machines, tell them to trust each other, and you're set. and if you manage to edit the same file at once, it handles the conflict and saves both copies.
for anyone who just wants to get files from point a to b without the headache. hope it makes your life a bit less annoying.

Po smrti úspěšné egyptské královny Hatšepsut ničili její sochy. Podle nového výzkumu nebyla přinejmenším část z nich zničena ve snaze vymazat její památku, ale spíše rituálně deaktivována.
