Data storage vs backup storage
The tire doesn’t have to be perfect that’s why it’s a spare. I’m sure it’ll be fine
@ArmoredThirteen@lemmy.ml how can it work like that?
Like this but with the spare wheel instead of a no wheel

I’m pretty sure that spare tire is only there for the joke. With off roading tires that large they are almost definitely bead lock tires which can be ran at very low PSI without risk of the tire departing the rim. On top of that the tread is much thicker meaning punctures have to go deeper before they cause problems and most of the time came be fixed by simple plugs.
Not to mention the logistics of changing a spare on a tire of that size. A bottle jack is completely out of the question and you wouldn’t be able to use a farm jack safety with the body that high. Even if you could how are you going to get that wheel onto the studs when it weighs over 300Lb?
my 18tb exos drive acting as a backup for my other 18tb exos drive is looking at you with disappointment right now.
you forgot my other 18tb exos drive which is also looking at you in displeasure due to the fact that you do not have a proper backup of your data.
(but for real though, I do have good backups. restic is the shit)
oh good, this one is mirrored, perfect.
Yeah i have some very manual backups setup, rsync and task scripting go brrr.
I don’t need anything more complicated in my life frankly.
I started using Pushover to alert me about my backups so I get one of these daily:
Wasn’t too hard and only had to do it once.
it’s a systemd unit on my side, so i’ve got logging and potential to implement reporting if i desired, but frankly it’s not worth the effort, i just check to see if the drives have roughly the same data on them every so often, because rsync is handling the rest for me, as well as systemd.
I should probably set up proper smart reporting, but i’m lazy and don’t want to setup and email server lol.
I used to send email alerts but this just uses Pushover which is just an API call. Super easy.
@KillingTimeItself@lemmy.dbzer0.com that’s a proper backup 😄
good enough™
My backups are a 2TB and a 5TB, but my normal data is on a 256GB XD
That spare is not even proper lip service
Oh it hurts real bad
Is data storage a car for guys with micropenis?
