daily reminder to back up your shit to an off-site location

Post by Scriptis » #694103

don't be that guy! off-site backups ought to be mandatory for anybody. no, your portable hard drive is not off-site.

learn to use restic, or, if you're lazy, use backblaze, dropbox or any other backup provider

but please back up your shit

thank you for your time and i'll be around to bludgeon your hard drive with a hammer shortly to make sure you got the memo

Influx is really dumb. They could have very easily migrated all of that data to another region and charged exorbitant amounts of money for said move. Instead they just shut it down and data was lost.

People need to see more dollar signs in stuff.

Sam asked an assistant on the arrivals shuttle where to get a discord invite, and the assistant linked him one.

That thread is a nightmare situation. Incredible stuff.

It's a real fucking comedy that every company and every person is putting all their eggs in one basket with AWS these days. I get it from a data/service management and cost perspective but this is not sustainable.
