OpenScan scales. Their electronics and software are great, and you can set up your own mechanics pretty easily. I scaled mine up to can things approximately the size of a basketball, but going to human size should be easily doable.
I do have a UPS for some of my stuff. I was planning on getting another small one for some networking stuff, but no reason I couldn't get a bigger one to cover another device.
Ah, I do have a UPS for sensitive electronics, though I need another one for some other networking equipment anyway. That does make it feel more approachable. Maybe when my life stops taking a big steamy dump I'll look into this with more earnest. Thanks for the overview!
That would be fine from a storage standpoint, except that the up front investment is significant compared to what I've paid Dropbox so far. I have to be my own resilience, redundancy, security, and and integration specialist. Can you even connect to a NAS on Android? I'd have to set up tasker or something for auto photo upload. Our power is not reliable and goes out frequently. I would have to learn how to expose it to the world outside my network. I'd have to monitor and replace dead drives. And that's just me, while the other people on my account also need space and access, where they either have to set up their own NAS or use mine, so I'd have to look into file sequestration. I'll have to re-automate everything to not use Dropbox APIs. There's a much bigger mental load hidden behind "getting it up and running" that made paying someone else attractive. I'd've paid up to triple for continued unlimited storage, but now that there's no option entirely and the highest limit is stupidly low, I have to rethink my entire workflow.
oh man I remember watered down gatorade being too strong when I got stupid nauseous from anemia. I had it for a weekend and I can't imagine being like that for a month...
This is another war crime, yes.
