    I follow the good 9pd 3 2 2 rule. Three backups, in two locations, one is remote.

    First copy on an external hard drive that gets mounted only for that, then unmounted.

    Second copy still at home, on a disk connected to an OpenWRT access point in the patio.

    Third copy on my VPS, so remote.

    Each night restic take care of all that.









  • I assume you are in north america, maybe Canada?

    Here in Europe, just forget it building yourself. Because in addition to all the building code and rules, you simply cannot fulfill the work area safety rules and, unless you can do 100% alone all the work, also guarantee the requirements for the other workers. What I mean is that you cannot because a company is required, only a company can have all the required paperwork for having other people working on the site.

    And don’t get me started on the “paesaggistica,”, which is a town commission that must approve and change to the facade or in general public visible parts of your house to ensure those match the landscape…

    They forbid me to have a 2-way roof, I needed to replace the 4-way roof with a similar one because “it’s the style here”. More complex, more money, less light (no real windows possible). And o counted 80% of houses around me have 2-way roof… So you go figure.
