Mailbag: The best all-time offensive line? https://www.dallascowboys.com/news/mailbag-the-best-all-time-offensive-line

Backups for the win: "hacker deleted Romania's entire land registry database after a failed extortion attempt"
https://cybernews.com/security/hacker-deletes-romanian-land-registry-database/
Bit of a deja-vu, right?

Got a phone interview in a few minutes, but before that: time to make sure backups are still running like their supposed to. Still loving Databasus though I really need to get email notifications setup eventually.

Ranking NFL contenders by backup QB situations: Mac Jones, Davis Mills headline best insurance policies

Learning day for me. Now that the Linux laptop is up and running it is time to add/remove software and tweak settings. Then see about doing restores from backups for some of my backgrounds, S/W sources and various BASH scripts.
Added
- Rust compiler
- COBOL compiler
- Mastodon client (Playing with Tokodon)
- NotepadQQ (we use Notepad at work so I want a similar tool)
It is an older (about 8 years) laptop and the battery isn't the greatest, but…

Tjaaaa, wenn man das eine Passwort für den Passwort-Safe nicht mehr weiß, hat man ein Problem.
Eine nette ältere Dame, für die ich den Rechner warte, hat das eine wichtige Passwort leider vergessen und nicht sonstwo aufgeschrieben.
Nun sind alle Accounts weg: E-Mail, Internet-Provider, Handy-Provider, Programme, Backups, ...
Das Apple-Account fürs Handy ist noch wackelig: PW-Reset am iPhone funktionierte aber am neuen iPhone wird das neue PW nicht akzeptiert. 🤷

Signal optionally allows you to pay money for an automatic backup or your chats. Given that my Signal backup is ~15GB, I happily pay that sum. I could, however, create a backup and automatically upload it to my Nextcloud (not integrated, but there's easy ways to do it), which isn't an option for WhatsApp.
WhatsApp needs to backup to Google Drive. You can do local backups, but local in the sense that you'd need your phone to work in order to restore th…

My Linux server for public projects is down. Saying a quiet word of thanks to Past Nelson who documented the Restic backups. They're working!

Viel Spaß mit den KI-Agenten

Today is the day I finally upgrade the fysh.org servers to Debian 13/trixie. I'll be using this thread to allow fysh.org users to follow along. Other folk should probably just mute this thread (I'd make it quiet public, but I *do* want a hash tag search to work).
I'm starting a little early on the upgrade... but on the backups VM that no users see or interact with, and has no impact on live services.

Adding files to notes in @… is now live! Now I'm adding bulk editing. So many new features. I can't wait to write about them.

Final bit of cleanup/building in the ol' homelab for today: got the DB backups running through Databasus (the successor to Postgresus), and moved the mini rack off the same switch as the EMC disk shelf.

I’m building a toolchain to get OpenSSH 10 running on CentOS 6 on a production box to fix backups, in case anyone is envying my July 4 festivities.

Battle of the Backups: Cowboys' comp to sit next to QB throne is game on https://cowboyswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/cowboys/2026/06/16/dallas-cowboys-backup-qb-battle-2026/90581262007/

The actual remedials will have to wait for the weekend, this is a personal blog and there's nothing else on that box so it'll just have to stay like that for now. I have backups and will just nuke the server and rebuild when I have a spare day.

Ik moest nog wat als ik een keertje wifi had... 😇😇
Oja ... Nextcloud vullen met kopietje van backups
En tanx to een VPN gaat dat zelfs lukken. Zo'n jachthaven weet dat eigenlijk aardig te beperken. 😇

Wer das https://etherpad.wikimedia.org nutzt/genutzt hat, könnte in Erwägung ziehen, Backups zu machen. Dort könnte die Datenbank bald gelöscht werden, sodass wieder frischer Platz entsteht. Das finale Datum 30. Juni wurde nicht eingehalten.

I am having a “recover from updates” day.
Updated my backup server FreeBSD v13->v14 and one of my 4 authoritative DNS servers 14->15.
It turns out that the default MTA is now dma. That’s probably a good idea, except that dma installed on a machine that has a working mail setup relying on features not in dma does stupid shit. Also, the ssh update forced a host key update so all the backups broke. AND: OpenSSL on 15 doesn’t like my antique CGP server: weak dh params.

Totally normal #Google #Play app situation.
Changes in new version: "restoring backups."
Methinks "that looks like a harmless update".
Reality: AI, new terms of service, new "privacy" policy, make a backup ("in cloud" preferably, can't save locally), sign up for an account (you can skip that), database migration.
Of course, the app itself is not very different. Some random extra padding that makes it look like shit, new database format that's much slower, and lots of useless premium shit.

A decade ago, I started paying for Office 365 primarily for OneDrive. (It is cheaper than paying for OneDrive itself.) I started using Immich for photo backups, and I was looking for a workflow to replace OneNote. I refuse to pay $5/mo for Obsidian. I'm working on a workflow that involves a $3.54/mo VPS, an iPad, and @….

RE: #synology drive tools:

Damit kann man
1. die exclude liste besser managen, d.h von der Kommandozeile ohne sich durch Menüs zu klicken und Verzeichnisnamen können auch geblacklistet werden
2. Permissions in .git Verzeichnissen so anpassen, dass der drive client minimal unterschiedliche mtimes bei loose objects und packs wieder zusammenführen kann.
Bisher nur MacOS weil ich das woanders eh gerade nicht testen könnte. Das ist alles super riskant. Backups!
