No problem.

Be sure to set a cron job for updating the DNS Blocklists, running scrubs, smart tests, and trim if you are using a ssd.

I am working on a way to do snapshots for the system as well for super simple restores that are automatically created. Before an update you WILL want to have a snapshot available. Once snapshots are automated I will probably start doing automatic updates. It basically creates a system similar to how an immutable OS works, if something goofs you can simply roll back to a previous working state and pause updates. I previously had a script I setup via a cron job but the system removed the job during an update.

    These are huge! Thank you for the suggestions I will get to implementing all of these. The only thing I've done so far similar to what's in this list is backing up to my git repo, which is very nice. Every setting change gets committed. Is that different than snapshotting?
