  • Most of the time I just copy/paste the terminal output and say ‘it didn’t work’ and it’ll come back with ‘I’m sorry, I meant [new command]’.

    It isn’t something that I’d trust to run unattended terminal commands (yet) but it is very good when you’re just like ‘Hey, I want to try to install pihole today, how do I install and configure it’, or ‘Here’s my IP Tables entry, why can’t I connect to this service’ … ‘Ok give me the commands to update the entry to do whatever it was you just said’.






  • ZFS array using striping and parity. Daily snapshots get backed up to another machine on the network. 2 external hard drives with mirrors of the backup rotate between my home and office weekly-ish.

    I can lose 2 hard drives from the array at the same time without suffering data loss. Any accidentally deleted files can be restored from a snapshot if my house is hit by a meteor I lose maximum of 3-4 days of snapshots.
