Backup: Incremental w/o recurring Full-backup, Delete changes older than x, Selective backup & save other data's metadata ?
Backup: Incremental w/o recurring Full-backup, Delete changes older than x, Selective backup & save other data's metadata ? - Lemmy
1. I like the Incremental backup method, it needs frequent full backups (as i understand from “grandfather,father,son” method), is there a way to have version control where i only create full-backup only once 2. and I can choose to delete changes older than 1 month. 3. How to only backup select files, like only personal data, 4. and a “ghost” for other data. Ghost is only filename and it’s metadata. Data selected for Ghost from internet which can be downloaded. with folder structure. # Related 5. Have a “file change tracker” to see summary of what files are moved/deleted/renamed. 6. “File History” where I see previous version of files. https://restic.net/ [https://restic.net/] https://www.borgbackup.org/ [https://www.borgbackup.org/]
Create Windows system image w/ incremental backups ?

My personal collection of Super Nintendo Romhacks, in an already patched and ready to play ROM format. Most (if not all) games are patched by myself, but not all are tested. Each .sfc and .smc file comes with a description, copied from the places where I downloaded the Romhacks (but sometimes also from README files, random blogs and other websites too). 1009 Romhacks across 174 different games (or across 169 games, depending on how you process data and count).

Stella ⭐Hi Fedi, how do y'all group and sort your media and data? Especially those of you who have sorted this out, what does your system or tree of content look like in your NAS and/or personal home directory? 
(Boosts welcome! :3 🔁)
e.g. where do you put Work, Other Important Documents, Not so important documents, Repos, Non-Coding Projects, Projects with both types of sub-projects, Random Office Documents, Music, Photos, Memes, Saved YouTube Videos, Recordings, Screenshots, Papers, eBooks, Scans, Audiobooks, Movies, Podcasts
I guess some of those are easy, e.g. most of the non-personal things, but then again, Audiobooks? group them with other Audio (Music) or other books? 
Do you group file type or semantically by topic? or doing both depending on the situation? Or one content-based and one file type based directory tree hardlinked to the same data?

GripNews🌘 快閃儲存媒體耐用度測試：六年回顧
➤ 長期實驗揭示快閃儲存媒體的驚人耐用性
✤ https://old.reddit.com/r/DataHoarder/comments/1q6xnun/flash_media_longevity_testing_6_years_later/
一位DataHoarder社羣成員進行一項長達數年的快閃儲存媒體耐用度測試。他選用十個32GB金士頓隨身碟，灌入偽隨機資料，每年定期對部分隨身碟進行資料完整性檢測並重新寫入相同資料。經過六年測試，所有參與實驗的隨身碟均未出現任何位元損壞。這項長期研究採取漸進式導入新隨身碟的策略，預期快閃媒體壽命將超過十年，旨在深入瞭解其資料保存能力。
+ 這項研究太棒了！我一直擔心隨身碟的壽命，看到這結果讓我對資料備份更有信心了。
+ 很棒的報告。我想知道您是用什麼軟體來測試位元損壞並重新寫入資料的？還有，這些隨身碟是持續通電還是斷電儲存呢？

Big Blu GnuAs an Internet Archive user, I scour the Web and turn up mainly software and computer data for preservation. For some time now, I have been trying to locate all the files that were ever uploaded to insaneheat.com and tuxracer.fubaby.com, two defunct fan sites for the racing games #1nsane and Tux Racer, respectively. If anyone has all the files stored somewhere, I would greatly appreciate it and remember to leave an attribution.

@wuffel Es sind nicht zu viele Daten. Der Speicher ist einfach zu klein. Warum sonst sollte ein BTRFS transparent komprimieren und bis zu 16 EiB fassen.
