Yes, I have. I ran it full for a couple months, on accident. I had a symlinked directory getting backup up twice... I never heard a word from them, but I eventually noticed and fixed it. I generally run around 600GB.

A couple helpful tips: pwgen is a package available on most linux's. It's great for generating passwords. For finding a process on a port, use ss ss -pn| grep :22 for a listening process ss -lpn |grep :22

Me too, I sound white too. I've noticed reactions when a Hispanic looking guy shows up. I have 6 kids, their mother is white. I've heard stories from each of them that range from kids asking, "why is your dad brown and you&#x

I can get a 1TB storage server from Time4vps for about $60 (they charge in euros). That gives me the ability to store stuff with sftp, rsync, or more full featured backup solutions like borgbackup.

You need redundancy with google too. I personally use google, but I have a home server that pulls my photos and emails via the google api. Then I backup that to a 2nd internal drive and the cloud. I use a time4vps storage server, if anyone

Well, you're in luck. The majority of people aren't in prison for this, they are just exposed to this because they are in prison. The guy in the article is in for 10 years for burglary due to a drug habit.

I wasn't discussing their major data service. I was discussing encryptr, which is a small service they are providing for free. It only stores text, so it's pretty light and I expect them to have few issues carrying the cost. I als

Thanks for explaining. I'd suggest you add some sort of faq or something on your page for people who might be interested in this. I, personally, don't use the apple ecosystem.

How do they support "free", especially if they are storing larger items, like pictures. I use keepass for my personal passwords, for stuff I need to share. I use encryptr ( https://spideroak.support/hc/en-us&#x

Property rights don't work that way, unfortunately we can't price everything correctly because too many special interests are out there and people are easily fooled.

It can be slow if you're transferring a large number of files since it does an index before it starts.

Those multipart backups are a pain to download in my experience. I decided to setup a key and backup via the api for gmail and gphoto. i should probably do drive as well... This works for email and says it will let you upload to another acc

question, are you a white guy? I find too many techies have trouble with managers who are not, and too many companies are willing to let quiet bigots be bigots.

Maybe they were high earners who had any number of setbacks. There are plenty of ways anyone can stumble financially. Most people also make financial mistakes. The people who had help, or enough slack to recover shouldn't look down on

That's my big problem with Dave Ramsey. He's a rent-seekers financial advisor. There are lots of people who should cut their losses and let a bill get written off, but he brings his "ethical" view and counsels them to sp

The US does great on educating the kids it cares about. The many kids that are written off (poor and/or non-white usually) drag down the average. If we spent on family stability instead of prisons, we'd turn things around quickly,
