[1520.36 --> 1523.50] And then there's the fact that you're the one that just broke the very thing that you
[1523.50 --> 1525.76] set up that the whole house depends on to operate.
[1526.66 --> 1529.08] Because I wrote a new partition table on a drive.
[1529.58 --> 1530.70] Why would I do that?
[1531.10 --> 1533.54] It's one of those things you do it in the moment and you're like, ah, be fine.
[1533.54 --> 1539.12] You reboot and then it says ZFS pool Intel two terabyte NVMe not found, you know, like,
[1539.86 --> 1540.46] oh no.
[1541.04 --> 1541.68] Oh no.
[1541.78 --> 1545.40] Cause you know, instantly that that's just the rest of the evening gone.
[1545.84 --> 1546.32] Yeah.
[1546.58 --> 1547.14] Oh yeah.
[1547.18 --> 1548.64] That, that is such a sinking feeling.
[1548.64 --> 1556.26] And, and it's, it's like, okay, I have backups, but in that very moment, like it's all on
[1556.26 --> 1558.42] those backups, you know, are they up to date?
[1558.84 --> 1559.24] Yeah.
[1559.74 --> 1561.70] No, actually a couple of them weren't.
[1561.70 --> 1566.22] So my Red Hat IRC bouncer that I used to get on the Red Hat VPN and stuff like that.
[1566.60 --> 1569.58] The last backup of that that I had was actually from July.
[1570.82 --> 1576.04] So I had to, uh, lose three or four months worth of history there with IRC and stuff like
[1576.04 --> 1580.00] that, which was a bit frustrating because quite often when I'm working a support case
[1580.00 --> 1584.96] for a customer or something, um, tidbits will come through IRC when I'm talking to the support
[1584.96 --> 1587.96] engineer and it's actually a very useful resource.
[1587.96 --> 1589.94] And I've lost four months of that now.
[1589.94 --> 1592.46] So let that be a lesson to your kids.
[1592.66 --> 1594.36] Make sure your backups are current.
[1594.84 --> 1599.12] We should have like a tagline at the outro every episode and go check your backups.
[1599.12 --> 1600.40] Cause you and I have both been there.
[1600.52 --> 1600.96] Yes.
[1601.30 --> 1604.76] And thank God for the home assistant Google drive integration.
[1604.98 --> 1605.64] Oh my goodness.
[1605.64 --> 1605.92] Yeah.
[1606.04 --> 1610.36] Just import a new home assistant image into proxmox using a script that's on GitHub.
[1610.36 --> 1617.16] So it takes literally a minute and then apply the full restore using the Google drive backup
[1617.16 --> 1617.58] plugin.
[1617.82 --> 1619.52] And it's as if nothing happened.
[1619.84 --> 1621.20] It's just amazing.
[1621.86 --> 1622.50] That's sweet.
[1622.74 --> 1623.26] That's nice.
[1623.32 --> 1624.92] No, it's so easy to get working on proxmox.
[1624.98 --> 1626.20] I do want to try that someday.
[1628.08 --> 1629.88] Backblaze.com slash SSH.
[1630.04 --> 1635.18] Get peace of mind knowing your files are backed up securely in the cloud with backblaze.
[1635.18 --> 1638.70] If you have it on your laptop and your PC, maybe you have it on a NAS.
[1639.02 --> 1640.98] That's essentially only having one copy.
[1641.28 --> 1643.64] That's what I love about this offer from backblaze.
[1644.04 --> 1646.46] You get a free trial, no credit card required.
[1646.46 --> 1651.14] Unlimited computer backup for Macs and PCs, just $7 a month.
[1651.38 --> 1655.22] Your documents, your music, your photos, your videos, your drawings, your projects, all
[1655.22 --> 1655.66] your data.
[1656.24 --> 1658.88] And the nice thing too, you can restore from anywhere.
[1659.16 --> 1661.76] Not only is that just handy, but maybe one day even necessary.
[1662.18 --> 1665.56] And if you've got a lot of data, they also offer a restore by mail option.
[1666.20 --> 1667.54] It's a pretty slick system.
[1667.54 --> 1670.82] And if you're worried about getting files from your phone, don't worry.
[1670.88 --> 1671.70] They got you covered there.
[1671.94 --> 1675.74] And if you want extended retention, they got you covered for $2 a month more right there
[1675.74 --> 1675.98] too.
[1676.88 --> 1680.34] Over 50 billion files have been restored for Backblaze customers.
[1680.74 --> 1681.50] You know it works.
[1682.14 --> 1687.70] So go get a fully featured, no credit card required trial at backblaze.com slash SSH.
[1687.90 --> 1688.46] That's right.
[1688.58 --> 1690.26] Backblaze.com slash SSH.
[1690.36 --> 1693.24] You know, that lets them know where you came from and it supports the show.
[1693.98 --> 1694.64] Go there.
[1694.94 --> 1695.46] Check it out.
[1695.82 --> 1697.04] You know Backblaze is legitimate.
[1697.04 --> 1699.16] You know, they are the best in the business.
[1699.34 --> 1703.08] And now it's a great opportunity for you to support the show and get a free trial with
[1703.08 --> 1704.02] no credit card required.
[1704.20 --> 1704.94] It's a win-win.
[1705.46 --> 1707.96] Backblaze.com slash SSH.
[1709.34 --> 1713.50] So it seems like a lot of reworking things.
[1713.74 --> 1718.20] And you were telling me before the show that you kind of use that opportunity to get your
[1718.20 --> 1723.42] documentation game up and you may have kind of put together what you could almost call
[1723.42 --> 1724.84] a self-hosted notion setup.
[1724.84 --> 1728.84] Yeah, I think we'll cover this in a lot more detail probably next episode.
[1729.04 --> 1730.86] I'm still working out some of the rough corners.
[1731.10 --> 1732.82] But the rough gist is this.
[1732.90 --> 1737.14] I've been using a documentation app called Obsidian recently.
[1737.14 --> 1744.32] It's part of this whole new Zettelkasten, Rome Research, Foam in VS Code.
[1745.28 --> 1746.74] Don't forget Emacs Org Mode.
[1747.74 --> 1751.12] Emacs Org Rome, which I have used for a lot of our show notes, actually.
[1751.26 --> 1752.16] And I still love.
[1752.48 --> 1755.36] But Emacs is just a pain, isn't it?
[1755.40 --> 1756.18] I'm sorry, audience.
[1756.30 --> 1756.72] I'm sorry.
[1756.72 --> 1759.94] Send your hate mail to alan at jupiterbroadcasting.com.
[1760.64 --> 1762.64] Hey, to be fair, you gave it a legit go.
[1763.22 --> 1763.60] I did.
[1763.74 --> 1763.92] Yeah.
[1764.02 --> 1769.66] I mean, it just breaks a bit too often when I want to sit down and take notes, unfortunately.
[1769.68 --> 1770.14] Oh, that's not good.
[1770.14 --> 1770.66] So, yeah.
[1771.12 --> 1771.56] Yeah, yeah.
[1771.84 --> 1772.30] C'est la vie.
[1773.18 --> 1779.04] So, yes, I'm using Obsidian, which is a free, I think it's open source.
[1779.68 --> 1785.74] And Notion, I should say, is like the new game in note-taking.
[1785.94 --> 1792.30] It's an all-in-one note-taker where you can embed spreadsheets and wikis and obviously notes and drawings.
[1792.30 --> 1794.62] And it's a monster electron app.
[1794.66 --> 1796.28] And it also has a web service.
