  But if my backups actually work then I miss out on the joy of rebuilding everything from scratch and explaining to my wife why non of the lights in the house work anymore.

    Carry around a candle in one of those old timey holders like Scrooge Mcduck

  Yesterday! Switched my media server from freebsd to alpine and got the arr stack all set up using the backup zip files

  Backup? Psh… That’s what the lab is for.

  What’s a backup solution…? (I’m only being half sarcastic, I really need to set one up, but it’s not as “fun” as the rest of my homelab, send suggestions)

      I at least have external backups for important family pics and docs! But yea the homelab itself is severely lacking. If it dies, I get to start from scratch. Been gambling for years that “I’ll get around to a backup solution” before it dies. I wouldn’t bet on me :|
