Maybe so. But it did process duplicity backups every week for hundreds of Gb, so it did a fair amount of work even though not constantly active.
FWIW, I ran a Pi 2 with external (self-powered) USB drive for about 8 years as my main backup without issue (except that it was slow). I’ve just replaced it with a Pi 5 and TerraPi frame holding an SSD.

What’s needed is an online 2fa service that just takes a username and copies the code to the clipboard.

The distinction that I’m concerned about is that this isn’t a charge from the repair company, it’s a fee decided by the rental company. Unrelated to the cost of the repair.
It wasn’t an invented example, the figures I gave are what they tell me they will bill me for any repair that’s needed.
So thank you for clarifying, but I don’t think that I’m musunderstanding what an excess is. I’m just wondering if the excess protection would still cover these arbitrary charges from the _rental company.
I know that it is to cover the excess of damage costs.
I’m asking if they would only pay “reasonable” repair costs if the rental company charges me 1 or 2 thousand for just a large scratch, for instance, which is what Enterprise tell me that they do. (It’s usually £1000 but was £2000 when I had a larger vehicle).
When I rent in the UK they always tell my that each incident will incur a fixed penalty (e.g. large scratch: £1000, damaged windscreen: £1000) presumably to cover loss of earnings on the vehicle, but also to pressure me into purchasing excess protection.
So I wonder if having the extra insurance would cover these “fine” types of charges that are beyond the cost of repair.
Some travel routers have a USB socket for media.
They’re usually used to make connecting to hotel Wi-Fi easier (you connect your devices to its ssid, then connect to its admin page and connect it to the wifi, or just plug it in to the lan).
Tp-link ac750, for example
Rsync.net has a discounted “Borg” account https://www.rsync.net/products/borg.html Which seems to be basically no support and no zfs versioning.
Re needing lots of space: you can use --link-dest to make a new directory with hard links to unchanged files in a previous backup. So you end up with de-duplicated incremental backups. But borg handles all that transparently, with rsync you need to carefully plan relative target directory paths to get it to work correctly.
I can’t recall storage costs (they’re on the website somewhere but are not straightforward).
I was paying maybe $7 a month for a few hundred Gb, although not all of that was glacier.
But retrieval was a pain. There’s no straightforward way to convert back from glacier for a lot of files and there’s a delay. The process creates a non-glacier copy with a limited lifespan to retrieve.
Then the access costs were maybe $50 to move stuff out.
I moved to rsync.net for the convenience and simplicity. It even supported setting up rclone to access s3 directly. So I could do cloud-to-cloud to copy the files over.
I like the versatility of rclone.
It can copy to a cloud service directly.
I can chain an encryption process to that, so it encrypts then backs up.
I can then mount the encrypted, remote files so that I can easily get to them locally easily (e.g. I could run diff or md5 on select files as naturally as if they were local).
And it supports the rsync --backup options so that it can move locally deleted files elsewhere on the backup instead of deleting them there. I can set up a dir structure such as Oldfiles/20240301 Oldfiles/20240308 Etc that preserve deletions.
Yeah, even using a hotspot internationally it’s the same price, with the same data limits.
And with data-SIMs, it’s possible to share that data with a few other devices, still at no extra cost.
Those features are often overlooked when people ask why it’s more expensive than e.g. Mint.
Someone said
Does bitwarden allow me to automatically create a new randomized email address for every new saved login
And I’m questioning that based on the page in the “yes” link reply, suggesting that the provided page is not evidence that they do.
I don’t follow how your reply relates to that.
I’m referring to the link to bitwarden.
From looking over that page, it looks like they explain how to use such aliases, but don’t provide an alias service themselves, which it looks like Proton Pass does.
You can use it as a webcam if you suddenly need to work from home and there’s a shortage of webcams.
Originally I had to install an app for that, but it shows up as a standard USB option on my Pixel now.
