Well, for backups this still sounds kinda nice
Tape backups are rather slow as well - at least as far as I know. The professional stuff was always out of my league monetary wise.
If someone has a good alternative, I’m absolutely up for it.
Currently I’m using a local server with just a RAID1 to mirror important files on my workstation and those (incremental) backups are getting encrypted and uploaded to a cloud drive.
But for really large data amounts, this isn’t really practical. So I only use this route for business documents, invoices, etc.
But for large data like code, I’m currently only doing a local mirroring (although on multiple devices), so if my office burns down, I’ll lose quite much - at the moment I’m lucky, because I can push my code changes to a customer git mirror, so I should be fine on that front for now.But still, I loathe the day, I really need to restore from my cloud backup.
Maybe I should do some dry runs periodically, to verify my restore path works. But just like server stuff, I really don’t like to touch it that much o:-)I’m currently using BORG (with Vorta) to backup everything locally and distribute it to my server and the cloud.
If anyone has a better idea, I’d be really grateful…
Doing periodically hard disk backups and giving them to a partner company (while I keep theirs in my safe) seems to not really work out in the long term, as I’m often on business trips and our exchanges got more seldom over time…

Thanks, I do get the basics. I would like to know, what technically needs to be done and what the real challenges are, to make to grid more flexible.
“Updating hardware” is not the in depth answer I was looking for ;-) - Comment on China’s EV and Solar Exports Are Powering Ahead as Prices Slide 6 months ago:
I’d really like to know what really needs to be done on the grid to support a multitude of small local power producers.
My electrical knowledge isn’t up to the task and I’m not sure, if there are real technical limits/issues, or if it’s just a money problem to update/gix the grid - Comment on natural sciences be like 6 months ago:

- Comment on UK workers ‘should get day off’ if workplace is hotter than 30C 11 months ago:
I think companies wouldn’t want to let their employees get off free, so they will probably be the first ones to be against this.
Not sure why climate activists would want people to suffer. Everyone is still hot, doesn’t matter if working or not

Wireguard, as only a handful of people need access to the services, I manage it manually - and not with Tailscale or something similar.
With that my server looks nothing like a server from the outside, as I’m exposing nothing - Wireguard doesn’t even show up in a port scan
