I'm Veronica! I love Linux, old computer hardware, and explaining things. Some folks call me the Linux Mom, and that works for me. I'm a sysadmin and COBOL lady who's posting fun content about cool things you can do with Linux, as well as some fun retro tech stuff I come across!

You might not even like rsync. Yeah it's old. Yeah it's slow. But if you're working with Linux you're going to need to know it.
