Can you elaborate? (learning a lot at the moment).
My thought was to just copy over the whole database directory every night at like 2am. Though some of the services do offer built-in database backup tools which I assume are designed to do what you're talking about.
I understand all of that. Sorry I didn't explain it well.
I have a RAID6 for data and a single HDD for system files. I'd like to move the HDD to an NVME/SSD. I suppose I could make another RAID with an additional NVME, but I've found it easier to deal with booting off a traditional drive.
My solution for redundancy for the NVME is to just backup the bits that I need every night. These are usually just a few hundred megabyte database files. I'm curious if that's a typical solution.
edit: to clarify, it's a software raid with mdadm.
Yeah Tesla released a video of one of their PowerPacks burning back around 2017. It burned to the ground, surrounded by gravel. Nearest pack to it was like 20 feet away per their typical installation methods. No biggie.
I only ask because I've had a very good experience with eBay over the past five years of using it as an Amazon replacement.
I think one thing showed up damaged because it was poorly packaged, and they gave me a full refund.
One lister sold me bootleg gameboy carts (which I should have noticed from the listing if I did an ounce of research), and they accepted a free return for a full refund.
Probably the scammiest thing I see is people clearly just drop shipping from Amazon through eBay. Which is odd because it's often for the most random things (like random bolts or whatever).
Though I appear to be having trouble having people follow me from other servers. I don't see you in my followers list, and when I tried following a test account on another server, I didn't see their posts. Not sure what's going on. Does it just take a while for the servers to sync?
Yeah, but that's the thing. You can only search if you know the exact username of the user on the other server. But you can't find usernames on other servers without creating an account there.
I wish it was more like Lemmy where you can browse other instances without an account at that instance.
That makes sense. It is a bit ironic. Like everyone wants to go back to old Instagram where you just keep up with friends, but I think we've all grown accustomed to our feeds and our friends don't have enough cute cats and dogs to accommodate our interests.
