It would go away for a bit and come back. It never went away completely but it would just happen every now and then and have a flare up. He would go through a random week where he would sneeze a bit. But he never coughed or had any other issues. He was about 14 when he passed which isn't bad for a regular outdoor cat. At the end he got pancreatitis and his organs started to go. We made him as comfortable as possible. The vet may have said it could have been related to his FIV. It let was a while ago now. Everyone in the block loved Ferris, he was a kitty celebrity.

We had an FIV+ for many years. He had weepy eyes now and then that we used to wipe but other than that he was very normal and not prone to random illness.

We have him lysine and forti flora later in life that seemed to help him. But that was for older cat pancreas issues.

He was an outdoor cat back then and strong generally. Our current cats are now indoor only.

I used to do that. There are many flaws with it. It felt really good to kick it.

I switched to Fastmail about 2 years ago and have been happy with it. Does everything I want and it is quick and smooth like it's name.

No, don't harm anybody. But maybe just a lil' burning. But only if you have time and only if you won't get in trouble. 🙂

Remember you aren't just backing up the data but also backing up the hours of effort it takes to rebuild and get it how you want. If frequently backing up just the service OS you can store heaps for $2 on offerings like OVH cold archive.

Remove yourself from the backup you'll forget or it will be inconvenient the week it blows up, so automate it, check the automation monthly. Don't care that the 2nd cold backup takes ages if you have a quicker main backup.

Fireproof safes aren't melt heatproof. Don't rely on a local house backups for fireproofing.

I'm a self hoster, and hate subscription services but I believe cloud storage for use with a compressed encrypted backup makes sense.

Backup media and other stuff separately to avoid one large slow monolithic backup.

"How slow is it?" My desktop is so slow, it comes with a prompt that says 'Execute now to guarantee completion before Christmas.'

 

Our modesty seems to have taken away our best self. We should all be naked and chewing on a toothbrush when we are to be at our most inspirational.
