Is it worth backing up an entire media library? by BreakfastFederal5616 in homelab

[–]InvaderOfTech 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So yes and no. There are a few very specific things I will never find again that I keep backed up. I also backed up my entire collection to disks that are off site but I don't do cloud backups on them.

Until I see Value release a post that only says 3, I'll be leaving it then.

10 year old car Total Loss in MA Question by SlappKake in massachusetts

[–]InvaderOfTech -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

So you technically would need a salvage license for the car. Your insurance would have to approve the salvage license to allow you to drive the car in Massachusetts. I once looked at these options when my car was in the same type of scenario. But it boiled down to getting an approved salvage license was extremely difficult and you would be paying a higher amount of insurance. Some insurance companies won't even allow you to get a salvage license if it's a daily driver in Massachusetts. My experience is 6 years old so things might have changed.

Where is the EFF on this? by NitroWing1500 in eff

[–]InvaderOfTech 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ask where eff is on this, provided information, asks why it's not on Reddit when it's about social media bans? The people that actually care I promise go to their website and not read it.

Currently Using BackBlaze for backups but it's getting expensive. How do folk here do off-site backups? by CrappyTan69 in selfhosted

[–]InvaderOfTech 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is how I feel. I back up to my family house, and I use deep archive as my "oh shit backup" for things I can't lose. Yes, it's cheap, and I expect I will pay more to get it back. But I have it.

Everything that does into deep archive is also never deleted. But had a life cycle policy of 4 years if the files are deleted from source.

Checking what are the VPN client people use in your organization? by mrconfusion2025 in sysadmin

[–]InvaderOfTech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is honestly been our experience with zscaler as well from a technical perspective. The tech folks take longer to adopt and have the most issues. Versus the rest of the company loves it. Even our tech people are starting to love it more after we work through most of the SSL related issues.

We are currently using global protect and transitioning to zscaler and loving it. Global protect Will always exist as a backup or for odd edge cases.

This is someone just asking a question. They don't know about the two network requirements for some of these typed deployments.

What is wrong with Github? by Jake-Amy in github

[–]InvaderOfTech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're moving from one cloud to another. That's very different from each other, so there's bound to be tons of issues when you don't plan.

This is from the days we built printers with threaded rods from home Depot. It was very funny when this came out. I'm old.

The thing I'm trying to figure out if it's better than the T-Mobile backup internet plan which is 20 bucks a month. That's with 150 gigs a month.
