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.'

I'm glad that worked for you. Everything changed in 2008. I would say the old cycles of the market and PE valuation rationality is gone in favour of meme stock style gambling. I think that anything written prior to 2008 on the subject is less useful and the yearly value taking cycle is only still maintained by the old school investors. Some who want some sort of comfort in their approach and want to believe they can make it work. Those people are just handing money to each other now while the billionaires just gamble large sums for bragging rights.

I think we live in unprecedented times and we need to correct a clear abuse of power before we have the luxury to return to how we would want to do things.

And build your own shelter with the results.

I didn't watch this, but i just cancelled Spotify for my own reasons. None of which cost. So I'm just going to assume everyone is on the same page.

RPi Digital Signage is really good. Binaryemotions.com. it's built thoughtfully for a bunch of different situations. The kiosk mode paired with some sort of start page would work.

I think it's time there is something like a mainstream TOR and a commercial internet. I hate the censorship but watching the kids get mind fucked is hard to watch.

We do we insist on creating these entitled special boys who don't give shit about us?

If you have a Google account you can setup webhooks to a chat space. That's the best way if it supports it. If you continue to have this problem with email only you could setup n8n to receive notifications via other methods and forward them to a webhook.

Ok over it.

She pounced that rainbow bridge I'm sure. I can see the focus.

 

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.
