I know /g/ is slow today but can someone give me resources on how to automate the sorting of pictures and pdf?

They don't have proper names and are scattered in random directories.

Help!

You mean like GRAFCET? Aside from that I only know C.

>not letting cron do your backups for you

At work I use puppet and Jenkins on about 1500 Linux nodes.

Aside from a sync script which gathers my saved pepes from all my machines and stores them to a samba share which is also a watch folder for another script that runs a visipics abstraction layer which automatically purges similar images, favoring larger / lossless filetypes. It's part of my doomsday plan to make all pepes on the Internet less rare by diluting the circulation of "rare" pepes

Tbqh I automate with glovepie. Move mouse and click. It just werks ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

My phone powers on my PC 10 minutes before my alarm goes off

Tasker on my phone for various things (auto-connect to my personal vpn when I'm not on my home WiFi, provide better brightness control, etc.).
A whole load of cronjobs for backup and systems maintenance tasks.
I wrote my own home automation system that's tied into a set of machine learning algorithms, so it learns the best way to set the lights and heating, depending on what's going on in the house

I wrote a script to download all wallpapers from /w/ and /wg/.

But it was too good.

After 10 minutes I had downloaded 8GB of animu.
