I am using https://duplicati.com/ and https://www.backblaze.com/ ( use their b2 cloud storage its variable and 6$ a month for 1TB or less depending on how much you use) run a schedule beckup every night for my photos. It’s compressed and encrypted. I save a config file to my google so say if my house and server burn down. I just pull my config from google then redownload duplicati and boom pull my back up down. The whole set up backs up incremental so once you do the first back up its only changes that are uploaded. I love the whole set up.

Edit: You can also just pull files you need not the whole backup.

Pilots. It’s been some time since I read about it. I read some of the small puddle jumper pilots make so little they qualify for SNAP. Sure flying the big boys makes a bunch of money though.

I never really understood the obsession to cover cameras. While yes you don’t want someone to hack it and yes I do cover mine. What are they going to do? Watch you fap? I really don’t care. I personally am much more concerned with the mic. I would hate for someone to record me saying something well not so pleasant. You can use your imagination. I rarely see people mention the mic. I see it mentioned a few times here but not much. I much rather have a kill switch for my mic.

I quite smoking. Much like another post. Swapped to vaping then lowered nic levels to zero. Then I also played a game with myself. How long can I go without vaping. Never told myself I couldn’t. Id just want it more. But just told myself. Can I wait 10 minutes. Pushing it a little longer each time till I was going hours then days. I don’t remember the last time I did it. It just merged into not needing it. I still get cravings at times but I think I just kinda tell myself can I wait an hour and then I forget about it or the cravings is gone.
