I went to maga.place and it's so edgy! Some 13 year old is having a good laugh at their own jokes.

I know it's brand new, but as of right now it seems like a waste of time to even talk about it.

Could be a different story a week from now, but until then who cares.

Ah, maybe the max was 20GB for zip. I'd just do the max available for zip.

In the context of leopardsatemyface the mayor's political leanings are quite relevant. It could even be said this whole post isn't relevant to the community.

But yeah, keep on with your singular attitude.

Do it again, but select 50GB chunks. This will produce fewer files.

Use immich-go to do the importing.

Maybe. I love to hate on Proton as much as the next person, but this particular blip gets a pass from me based on what I've read.

I thought it wasn't fake, just a typical "oops sorry the auto-system tagged it, but we re-enabled it now". Either way, hard to pin it on Proton at this point.

Cool, I want more details! How does it get oxygen at a depth of 100 ft? It burns 3 feet per year and has been burning for 6000 years. Assuming that rate has been relatively constant, that adds up to over 3 miles.

Doubt it. This one's in Sacramento, CA.

I have a nightstand that's about the same sizes as that.

I've never had to restore a backup (yet), but to me this is the best feature of Restic.

I used Duplicati for a while (I think it was Duplicati, not Duplicacy) and although the backups seemed to work, I kept reading about people having trouble during the restore process.

Restic is a slight chore to get set up with the environmental variables, figuring out which directories to "--ignore", etc... but man once it's set up it's just great.

I'm not sure I fully grasp what you want, but Restic is excellent. I use a cronjob to back up on a schedule. It's command line only. I think there's a tool to make it a GUI but I haven't tried it. They have a Docker image available but it's weird, you have to pass commands to it, it runs, then shuts down when it's done. I love Docker but that didn't quite work for me.

I use Backblaze B2 for storage, but any S3 will do. Restic supports all sorts of storage targets.

Credentials and things go in an .env file, or you can put everything into the command line every time.

When it's time to restore things, you can fricken mount the whole backup you want and browse the files, copy and paste what you need, etc. That part is really cool to me.

Backblaze is $5 or $6 USD per TB per month, so 500GB will be about $36USD a year.
