  • I will always recommend Borg backup just because of it’s compression+de-duplication algorithms:

    550gb of raw data, 20 historical backups going back over a year (10.98tb of data total), only 400gb of disc space used to store them all…

    You can backup directly to remote servers via ssh, nfs, or directly between two borg instances, optionally encrypted in transit and at rest.

    Borg is a CLI tool normally, but there are a number of GUI frontends you can use if you really want: Vorta, BorgWeb, and BorgWarehouse for example. (I’ve not used any of these, just examples from a google search)










  • Blackout curtains in the bedroom, with an exra throw blanket blocking off the gaps on top to ensure 0 light gets in.

    That room is usually lit with red LEDs to avoid blue light as I like to lay in bed watching YouTube for a few hours before sleep, and often wake up at night, have a smoke/joint, then go back to bed.

    Living room has regular blinds that allow some light, and even get opened on occasion. More often than not though, lit by a pair of table lamps with dimmable smart bulbs in them.
