I wanted to quit but couldn’t. I read Allan carrs quit smoking book and how they described what the nicotine does did it for me.
It helped finally understanding how the addiction works, and how I was constantly just trying to get to a normal baseline of living that non smokers just lived at normally.
Ive tried vaping, gum, lozenges, cold Turkey, everything. Almost a year free from nicotine now, no regrets, not missing a damn thing.
Similar here, I actually comment occasionally. More than that, I’ve gone back to self hosting multiple things, I’ve shifted away from Google, all good changes I think. Prompted by reddit changing the api price, who would have thought they’d have such a positive influence on me.
Anything important I keep in my Dropbox folder, so then I have a copy on my desktop, laptop, and in the cloud.
When I turn off my desktop, I use restic to backup my Dropbox folder to a local external hard drive, and then restic runs again to back up to Wasabi which is a storage service like amazon’s S3.
Same exact process for when I turn off my laptop… except sometimes I don’t have my laptop external hd plugged in so that gets skipped.
So that’s three local copies, two local backups, and two remote backup storage locations. Not bad.
Changes I might make:
I used seafile for a long time but I couldn’t keep it up so I switched to Dropbox.
Advice, thoughts welcome.
All I’ve been able to think about since I heard “X” lol
Nice work, that looks really good and inspired me to try a few things on my desktop
