For my use, it actually cost less to use B2 than the home backup product. The bulk of my data is Linux isos so I’m not really worried about losing it.

I do use ZFS and I just backup the files with restic. To restore a file in a zfs snapshot I would have to download the entire thing to a spare HDD, even if I only need to recover a few files. Restic has snapshots too and is designed to be used with cloud providers like B2.

I’ve used backblaze b2 for almost 8 years now and it just works. I’ve never had any data lost by them in that time.

I just recently switched over to Storj.io as it a bit cheaper at only $4/TB as compared to B2 at $6/TB. Both are S3 compatible and work with just about every backup software out there. I have used Borg, Kopia and now Restic to do backups of important data. All 3 tools deduplicate all your data and reduces the amount of storage used. They also do encryption client side and are open source. They also have a built-in verification mechanism that checks the data is intact.

I’ve had Girls Aloud in my rotation recently. Their songs are just fun and really catchy. Also have The Veronicas, Brittany Spears, Taylor Swift etc…

I would really like a community for Volkswagen cars with q&a on mechanical problems, tips etc so I can stop going to reddit

Works great. Setup a month ago and imported over 600 documents, both digital and scanned. Makes backup a lot easier too as everything is in one place now.

The easiest way is to setup tailscale on the server, then share the server with the web interface. Your friends/family simply install the tailscale client, login, and it just connects like magic. No port forwarding or firewall configuration required. There’s plenty of how-tos out there.

Nitrogen narcosis is caused by the high pressure exposure to nitrogen in the air divers breathe underwater. Its different to hypoxia, which is a lack of oxygen. It can cause a euphoria and can be dangerous if the diver loses focus and makes a mistake. The effects are completely reversed by ascending and have no long term effect.

Well actually, its usually much safer for a cyclists to keep moving at an intersection like that. It takes far less time for them to clear the intersection than coming to a full dead stop and starting again. I can see and hear everything on approach much better than anyone inside a 2 ton metal box. In some places its perfectly legal for a bicycle to treat stop sighs like a give way.

Getting on the sidewalk often has its own hazards, like the sidewalk randomly ending and starting again for no reason, people, and shop doors.

I’ve never seen one with 2 different sauces tho. Such a good idea

I went that route with an unlocked ASUS zenfone and it turns out that phone is impossible to replace the screen on because replacement parts are not available where I live. I had to buy a new phone without a headphone jack. Check for parts availability before buying something from a smaller brand.

To be fair, lighting is the most important part of generating photorealistic graphics. Having realistic and real-time lighting makes it look so much more realistic

This is exactly where I’m coming from.

I personally don’t believe in copyright. Nobody should be able to own an idea or data and be able to tell me what i can and cannot do with said 1s and 0s, which is what digital media is. I will find other ways to support artists and creators like going to concerts, donating or buying merchandise etc… You can’t steal data because nobody owns it to begin with in my view.

Anything confidential should be kept encrypted or offline of course.

AirVPN still has port forwarding. They are run by a non profit activist group and you can use it without their app. Works with openvpn and wireguard natively.

To be fair, the calculator on my phone has a built in currency converter and would need network access to get the exchange rates

That took a twist at the end

It’s usually a number of different data points about your browser like the user agent string that identifies what browser you use and what OS, screen resolution, language settings, timezone, whether or not you use and adblocker etc… and of course IP addresses
