It seems to me that Syncthing is the exact right thing to use here; what is "overkill" about it that makes you think you should use something else?

Technically it's O.MG; they work with and are sold through HAK 5, and license Ducky Script.

My point is that you're ascribing some kind of value to passing genes along and that seems super weird.

I really don't get the weird attachment to having your generic lineage continue. I guess it's just as arbitrary as hoping that anything in particular will outlive you, but it's not going to do you in particular any good, and it seems to me there's less reason to think it'll help people as a whole than doing something productive with your money rather than spending it all in diapers, clothes, college, and so on.

Their headline, and the summary above, actually say 0.8%. so either they updated their headline or there was some kind of error when posting it here.

Ah gotcha, that makes sense. Thanks.

I don't know how relevant FDIC is to the 1%; it only covers 250k, and only in things like checking and savings accounts and CDs: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Deposit_Insurance_Corporation

Most of the 1% wealth is probably tied up in things like stocks and real estate, or maybe they diversify all over the place.
