  • I have a Nas running nextcloud for general ease of automatically backing up anything important from my phone or pc.

    Nextcloud and important things from the server are backed up using a tool called “restic” which honestly does not get enough mention here.

    Restic is amazing, it supports just about every cloud storage provider out there - could be Amazon S3 or backblaze, but it could also be OneDrive or Google drive. If you’ve got some cloud storage somewhere, restic will probably support it.

    Restic is super clever, it takes snapshots and only backs up any data that has changed - so it’s very space efficient and fast. I back up hourly, it only takes a few mins and if nothing has changed, there cost is also basically nothing. But you can pull back files from any snapshots you keep and when you delete a snapshot, it only deletes data that’s not used by any snapshot.

    This means you can have backups going back months or years at very little data cost. You can restore a full backup, or just a specific file if you need.

    Seriously, restic is amazing and more people need to know about it.














  • His flaws aren’t invisible to his cult members, they’re why they follow him in the first place.

    If He can a be racist, bigoted piece of shit that can do no wrong then they can be racist, bigoted pieces of shit that can do no wrong.

    His sexism justifies their sexism. His constant grifting justifies their constant grifting.

    But above all else, in my humble opinion, is that he’s an absolute fucking moron that likes to think he’s the smartest person in the room. And when you’re an absolute fucking moron that doesn’t understand how pronouns work or why masks were important or anything like that, well that’s okay because actually you know better because you’re smart, you’re the smartest guy in the room, you know better than all those experts, just like Trump.
