I have Nextcloud on my server which stores all those documents and photos etc. I have nightly offsite backup as well as backing up to a local borg repo on a separate drive.

But as it’s that important to me, I also do a once-yearly backup of non-encrypted files to M-Disc, with two copies, one stored at my mother’s house. This way if my house burns down and I’m inside it, my family can still get (most of) the precious memories without needing to know how to access a borg repo and without having to know how to download from Backblaze object storage.

I’m just a little bit paranoid about losing things after that one time I dragged from a USB stick to my computer and when it was done moving the files they were all corrupt, and didn’t exist on the USB stick anymore either. Thanks Windows, a whole holiday of photos gone.

I have about 750GB of irreplaceable files on my server so I want a really solid history. A couple of days backup is no where near enough to give me peace of mind 😅

Ah yeah makes sense if it’s not just for storing an offsite copy of backups like mine is.

Is using a VPS cost effective compared to uploading to object storage?

I use rclone to sync backups to Backblaze object storage. I find it hard to believe a VPS would be cheaper, considering the disk space on those can be very expensive compared to object storage.

I guess OPs question is more about what makes you comfortable.

Is your drive only big enough for 2 backups or is it big enough for hundreds? If it was half that size would you still be happy with the number of backups? A quarter of the size?

Back when I used OneDrive, it deleted an important but seldom used folder. It just wasn’t there anymore. No one noticed for 6 months, but luckily I had kept a backup each month so could restore it easily.

3 weeks is definitely not long enough for me to notice something missing, if it’s just a random chunk of my 700GB of important stuff. E.g. if a folder of my kids photos from 5 years ago suddenly disappeared, I probably wouldn’t notice it for months but would be devistated to find it missing when I eventually went looking for it.

Would that count? Most of those faces are like a single pixel of detail from the stage.

My phone tells me I have ∞ open.

I’m not sure how to easily count on my computer (firefox), I have vertical tabs on, I have to scroll, and many of the tabs are in collapsed groups…

And before you ask, yes all the tabs are important and necessary.

You’ll likely be able to find if on whatever store your distro comes with. There’s also the third party launcher Lutris but I have found Heroic to be great. If you’re playing games without a linux version, Heroic will help you install WINE versions as well, so you can play almost anything.

It’s coming but I’ve used Heroic with GOG for years, it works great.

All good!

Oh I am sure there are differences. I also recently found that the fireworks rockets aren’t implemented in Mineclonia (I found a issue in the bug tracker and a PR that was never merged where they talk about how it’s hard to do in the Luanti engine), but for the most part I’ve just been able to look up the Minecraft wiki. I bought and played Minecraft when it was in Alpha, so my knowledge is a bit out of date 😆.

I play Mineclonia with my kids.They are reasonably young still, so we play in creative mode and build great things together. I’m running a local server so they can all join together and work together.

I didn’t find out about Asuna until we were well into our world, so while I also have an Asuna world set up we haven’t really used it. I will admit that it’s very helpful to just be able to search up the Minecraft wiki to see how things work for Mineclonia.

What’s up? Not Grafana. I did docker compose pull on the stack (without version pinning) then recreated the containers, and now it’s fucked. Or maybe it’s not because the logs are fine but it only serves the web app but 404s on any connection to the Grafana backend.

Now I need to do some investigation into any recent changes to try to work out what’s going wrong.

Ah I just assumed because they all look the same, but maybe you’re right!

Yeah I guess so, but every site seems to be a Shop App now so it’s hardly more than one company anyway 😅

Who is behind it and how do you know they are trustworthy? I wasn’t able to find much info but it seems it’s just some company (not a non profit / charity or anything). I know they have paid plans but it seems they also have an incentive or at least an ability to sell your purchase data?

Yip. It might not have been clear but my point was that if you have a SearXNG instance set up and running well, then Kagi may well not be worth the cost since you’ve already got most of its strengths.
